Arctic Eagles Convoy Torpedo Run

 

This Russian film has an excellent sequence with DB-3 torpedo bombers attacking a German coastal convoy. Although set in 1941 in the Baltic, this was also a key aspect of the war in the far North of Norway in 1942-43. I've never used the torpedo rules in Bag the Hun but I'm very keen to include at least one convoy attack in Arctic Eagles, especially as I have some super 1/300th scale Scotia Collectair DB-3 bombers. I'm also trying to twist Paul's arm to sculpt one in 1/600th scale, as it's not in the Vapour Trails range. The actual historical attacks were usually made in low level bombing runs by A-20 Bostons, IL-2 Sturmoviks and even Handley Page Hampdens, but I have a soft spot for the DB-3, so will aim to fit them into the scenario narrative where I can.
