Dunkirk Scenario Teased! (PvE Operation of the Month)

[IJN_Katori]

 

 

 

A highly anticipated new event.

 

 

Scenario Introduction: Operation "Dynamo”,  

 This scenario requires seven Tier 4 to Tier 6 destroyers. Player CANNOT use aircraft carriers, battleships, or cruisers.

Players need to escort smaller ships to the south coast to rescue trapped British soldiers, and then retreat through a mine field under the assault of German's artillery, torpedo boats and aircraft.

 

Mission Briefing:

In the entire scenario, both Germans and Royal Air Force will send large waves of aircraft. Luftwaffe have Bf109, Bf110, He111, and Ju87; RAF have Hurricane Mk1, Paul Defiant, and Hudson. Luftwaffe have unlimited plane reserve, and can send 12 fighters, 24 dive bombers and 3 torpedo bombers at once. Players have the opportunity to counter it with a successful completion of secondary tasks, and reduce that number to 4 fighters, 8 dive bombers and 18 torpedo bombers. RAF has only 36 planes available, should players manage to weaken the enemy's air force, allied fighters could easily handle enemy's torpedo bombers and scout mines for players. Survivability of all aircraft are adjusted so that a tight group of destroyers can fight off them. On the contrast, if enemy aircraft managed to make a drop of 10000 damage dealing torpedoes with 40 knots plus Historical accurate dive bombing can destroy a single ship.

Minefields:

In term of game mechanic, mines are stationary torpedoes, but they have better concealment and each deals 14400 damage, a low-tier destroyer may suffer a sudden death if it hits a mine. the allied ships will spot on the mines, but unknown if you can destroy it or not

Torpedo Boat (New Class, different from destroyers with Lethal AA Guns)

Torpedo Boat German Schnellboots are small boats that launches 2 torpedoes at once, but it does not have a main gun. However, every s-boat has 3 AA guns and they do kill or do lethal damage to the allied fighters.

I'd say it'd begin by the end of next month when Nolan's Film screens. It's also aligns with WG's three week development cycle. Counting three weeks from now is exactly when the film hits the threatres.

 ripper i get to play  my T4/5 dds   

[Thyaliad]

Looks perfect for C-hull Farraguts with DFAA.

Some of the Japanese DDs like the Hatsuharu aren't a bad choice too.

[ADrunkDropbear]

Wait, is there no restriction to the countries you can use?

Does that mean a team could be made up of nothing but German DDs, considering that T-22 and Gaede have okay AA compared to the other DD's.

Farragut or Shinonome or The Gnevy are better choice. Your main objective here is to kill ships and kill them quick enough so enemy bombers have less time to bother you.

Gaede with sonar can sweep for mines , however she is big n clunky , involving WASD hacks with mass torpedo formation is the last thing you want to do in her

Wat about Ansham=n

True, Gaede handles like a drunken walrus at speed.

Finally, a use for the farragut C-hull. 

 

How about the T-22? It's got dual purpose main guns. No defensive fire though, and it's in Tier 5.

T-22 and Gnevny has very similar AA Guns that deal damage to Aircraft too, Hatsuharu deals the highest DPS on BFT skill

Does anyone know what the "legendary commander" entails? Is it going to be a normal captain with some skill buff (a la Steve Seagal) or something more?
