CAMPAIGN READ-ME :  BURMA 1941-1942 V.1.0


  This is a modified American,German and British 1943 campaign with Modified Frontline, to resemble the airwar in China-Burma during December 1941 to July 1942 , when the 1st AVG "Flying Tigers" are combined with the USAAF. 
  This is not a completely Historical Campaign but it is better than Pacific Skins with the original 1943 campaign. Do to the limits of Hex editing and the EAW code, some historical consessions had to be made, Sorry.
  You can play this campaign as either the US,Japanese or British. Each have their own unique Campaign and setup. As the U.S. you will become a member of the famed 1st AVG "Flying Tigers" defending China and Rangoon, Burma. As the British you will have the chance to defend Britian's precarious hold on Burma against a resolute Japanese. As the Japanese you will fly for the glory of the Emperor and help bring together the vision of the Aisan Co prosperity sphere and the conquering of Burma.
  You will be flying missions anywhere from every 3 days to every 5 days, based on which country you choose.
****Do not choose limited Supply!!!*** as you will end up short on supply fast. As it has been stated, your a Pilot not a desk jockey. Many units in this Campaign have very few aircraft available, thats the way it was , so thats the way I made it. If you choose to fly for these under strength units, decided if you want limited planes. If you choose to go limited and under strength......YOU BETTER FLY AND COMMAND LIKE YOU'VE NEVER FLOWN BEFORE OR YOU WILL RUN OUT OF PLANES! (just a warning)
  Most of all, enjoy. I had fun building it and hope you have fun flying it.

***** I am leaving skin Choices and terrain up to you. However I have included in this package the needed AVG Tomahawk Skin File for the Typhoon Slot.The Skin is an excellent piece of work be Emil. Also to really get the feel of this campaign,may I suggest using Shatter Of Worlds Pacific Mainland terrain..as it was meant to be used for this type of campaign.

This is the first release and I will make updates as time goes on and new things come out. If there are any problems, errors or changes that you think should be made let me know.
