16 (8RAF + 8LW) specially designed offline missions which together form a tournament that you can fly at your own pace and in your own time.
The challenge is three-fold:
- Fly each mission in the tournament at your usual realism settings - Score as many victories as you can with your pilot - Keep your wingman alive
Complete the 8 missions and tally up your victories!
Some missions include bonus challenges, such as bringing down enemy bombers, protecting your own bombers or attacking ground targets.
You choose your own side and aircraft...the defaults are either the RAF/Spitfire IIa, or the Luftwaffe/Bf109e4, but the aircraft and number of opponents are customisable to your taste.
RULES
You should fly each mission only twice: once for practice, and once for real. The best of your two missions can be submitted. If you are shot down in the mission, no victories count. You must move on to the next mission. The only other rules are you MUST fly with limited ammo and vulnerability ON!
PSEUDO-DYNAMIC(TM) MISSION DIFFICULTY
Missions and enemies increase in difficulty as you progress. You start against fewer, slower, weaker opponents. You finish in all out melees against the Luftwaffe's finest.
You are not flying alone - your wingman ('Fatty' for RAF or 'Fritz' for LW) is at your side. Try not to lose him. Losing your wingman is bad karma. He is a tough nut, and if he is shot down he will walk, swim or limp back so that he is with you again for your next mission, but you will lose 1 victory each time he is shot down.
Your wingman's skill and aggression will increase as you progress. Fatty starts mission 1 as a timid undisciplined Rookie, and ends as an aggressive and disciplined Veteran.

BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO INSTALL CUSTOM MISSIONS![/b]
The tournament download includes a self-installer/uninstaller. Just point it at the CoD Folder on your hard drive and it will do the rest for you, installing the missions and any skins needed. The missions will appear in your Single Missions menu. If you get stuck, someone here will talk you through it.
