Schachmatt (Checkmate)

The Reich is in a state of collapse and the
Allies are enjoying their air superiority
over Nazi Germany. Their bomb groups have
been making unescorted raids lately due 
to the lack of any credible air defense
by the Luftwaffe.

The scientist, engineers, and 
manufacturers have worked feverishly on
projects to bring about a change of the
status quo and perhaps save the Reich 
from impending doom.

Their efforts have paid off and a small
number of the new wonder weapon the 
Gotha Go229A-0 has arrived at a few
dispersed airfields still in operation.
Your group has received 4 of these high
performance and precious aircraft.

Due to the lack of fuel you are forced to
spend your days sitting on runway alert.
Upon signal you will scramble into the air 
intercept whatever enemy ventures near
your assigned area.

It's been a long morning, but the radio 
crackles to life as the airfield's klaxon
begins to wale a warning. A large group of
enemy aircraft are approaching from due
West at about 22,000 feet. You adjust the
throttle and hit the start button. As the
engine begins to spin up to speed you 
buckle into the seat and slide the canopy
closed. You release the wheel brakes and
taxi out on to the runway...
