WHAT IS THIS AND WHERE DO I STICK IT? 😄
Like my Syria Template this is a .stm with a lot of units on it. You go to the mission Editor and press menu Edit> STATIC TEMPLATE LOAD and browse to the file attached and add it into any mission.

WHAT UNITS?
Operation Crossbow NOBALL target lists and some key coastal batteries for the fun of putting down those bunkers.

A NO-WHATTY?
The Brits made funny names for things. This is V1, V2 and the V3 site with associated storage bunkers or manufacturing like Liquid Oxygen manufacturing. O in other words ... Mosquito food. Diver raids...

HOW ACCURATE IS THIS?
Good question. This is not GPS perfect stuff, there is no "samsites.kmz" Google earth can be referenced for some buildings but apart from the concrete bunkers remaining much of it has disappeared. The answer is - It varies enormously between "just finding the town!" and getting them satellite perfect. Bunkers were pretty good positionally, but the 3d objects are no good, like Wizernes, Watten, Siracourt and Mimoqueuceques. Yvrech was already placed by ED without the V1 ramp. Agenvillers I have perfect position of the ski bunkers because Google earth shows them brightly, but the launch ramp I just guessed. And things liek the Predefin Wurzberg site or Goreflos or Ailly le-haut-clocher I litterally only have evidence of the town. It gets worse... There was no naming convention. The Brits refered to V1 sites often by the nearest town. That wasnt that accurate. The French could add the specific "wood" they were in to be more specific. The Germans of course were organised and gave them numbers. The internet, however, took the first name it could find. Yes, I resolved V1 multiple sites that had multiple names in quite respectful websites. Example is Flixecourt, aka, Surcamps aka Brunehaut aka Bois du Coroy. Jeesh. What a chase that was.

This was a bit of OCD pedantry i am sharing, i am not purpoting some expertise in V1 sites, just simple sharing a mad Sunday and some other hours with the community I love.

BUT SOME OF THESE SITES LOOK BAD!
There is only so much you can do with the statics contained in the core game when trying to do a V1 site. I started to spend less time as the evening ewent on and after a bit just got silly. The important thing is you can save a lot of research time using this as a backbone for your missions. Don't judge me harshly. Please! 🙂 It's free OK?

Nono, specifically avoided that. Had I a resource that gave permanent Flak instlalations I would have added it, but I have no information, so it's basically up to personal choice how much AD you stick in

I understand much of these sites were meant to be concealed, and thus were in or near woods, so I doubt the Germans would have placed much ADA in the immediate vicinity of the sites. Otherwise the Allies would immediately know they were guarding something in the woods that wasn't moonshine.

Hi Nealius, it would seem your assumption, though logical, was not borne out by experience; the last sentence in the attached picture:

I was wondering about this after flying the NOBALL mission in Reflected's campaign. I was expecting AAA on ingress/egress but not so much in the same woods as the V1 site itself. 

I think it depends on the site. In the After the Battle book 'The V Weapons then and now' there is a target map of Flers, just to the south of Bapaume, that was identified as a V1 site. And right on the edge of the village is a platoon of Flak guns.Ive also found a source for a battalion of light AA Guns at Watten, which is a stones throw away from some V1 launch sites and an O2 bunker for the V2's.

Generally though, im finding it next to impossible to find sources for defences of these places. It would be nice to find a lot more target maps.
