Stenka Cliffs of Dover Costs SEOW

[5./JG27Farber]

As for points cost, I was thinking of this the otherday... How about,

Finding the actually cost in RM and £ of the actually unit cost and finding the exchange rate, points would therefore be a new currency. For example a 109 cost around 42,900.00 RM and a spit cost around £13,000.00. These are comparible aircraft... In 1940 one Pound is 5.00RM, to the US dollar its 4.10RM.

So a 109 costs 43k RM which is £8,600
a spit costs £13,000 pounds which is 65,000 RM

So you could either create a points currency, (our Porsche could do this) or you use one currencys value based on these conversion factors... Say use RM's devided by 1000, so a 109 would cost 43 points and a spit would cost 65 points. Now these are rough estimates and we dont know which model these are but bare with me.

The benifit of using this system would be, how much does a ship cost? To the layman its unfathemable but if we use this system we can have a good estimate and it also would factor in the industrial, supply, materails cost etc etc of the various nations.....

Things like for example a mine sweeper made from a converted trawler would be cheaper because it was already built and then modified...


I would be willing to investigate the prices of various articles for a SEOW in cliffs...

Hi Farber,

Sorry I've been overloaded testing as I launch the Apocalypse then first mission tonight which means I start having time to think tomorrow.

Looking at it very quickly I think we may be short of planes and ships.

If we are averaging 6v6 over 10 missions with 50% loss rate we would need 30 planes a side not 20.

Must not run out of planes or fun stops.

2 ships with 2 escorts doesn't sound like a convoy - I had been thinking of something more like 6 ships + escort and far more barges.

Of course if we change quantities may need to reduce cost.

Lets look in detail tomorrow.
