Back to Bag The Hun
Kanalkampf, phase 1 of what would become known as 'The Battle of Britain'.  

10th July to 7th August 1940 saw the Luftwaffe largely targetting shipping convoys in the
Channel and Channel Ports.  In addition the, large masted, radar stations on the South
coast were also hit, though their exact importance was not known at the time.

This scenario for 'Bag The Hun' represents an attack upon a small convoy.
