Another Special Pilot Characteristic to be included in the last of the Continuation War scenarios I drafted recently is this one:
'Red Rocketeer' - This pilot is highly proficient in air to air use of the RS-82 rocket projectile system (roll an additional 1D6 for air to air rocket attacks)
The I-153 is loaded with eight rockets and the I-16 six rockets, fired in pairs. Each pair rolls 2D6 against targets < SIZ 4 or 3D6 for targets that are larger.
In the 'They Shall Not Pass" scenario I've written the two I-153's pilots concerned are firing against fighter rather than bomber aircraft, so would roll 3D6, requiring pairs to hit i.e. two 5's, two 6's etc. The extra D6 gives them a greater chance of a successful hit or near miss, but not so much that it makes it too easy.
