Sink all ships at Dunkirk?

[piemax]

I couldn't find all the ships in the Dunkirk mission. What reward did I miss? Is the idea to ise a spotter plan to find them?

I believe you won't face any British expeditionary troops in the following scenario if you succeed (at least I didn't have to face any at Paris -- not sure about Dijon).

Use a single spotter plane.

Sink then all... and be DISAPPOINTED.

All that happens is Paris has no BEF... but you don't want that to happen, do you???

I'm confused now- is the idea that having the BEF is harder but less fun? or less rewarding in some other way? I was considering replaying to get them but now it seems maybe I shouldn't?

Spotter plane, 2 Stukas and 2 Ju 88s is what I used :)

Ju 88s are great at anti-shipping.

I dont have enough fighters and core slots to field that and still take care of the main battle, alas.

Just wait until you're mostly done fighting.

Wear down enemy air with AA/ftr, then sink the fleet with 1 stuka, 1 junaker, 1 bf 110, 1 spotter plane

ok will do thanks. I was confused by your earlier comment but it sounds like it really is better to sink them, right?

Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I think he meant that, if the BEF doesn't show up, you wont get experience for your units from killing them?

Yes... The more the merrier. So I went to Dijon instead

Ju 88s are great at anti-shipping.

Thats odd, my Ju-88 could do max 1 damage on the bigger ships.

to sunks ships at dunkirk you need 2 ju88a they do the job well, escort them whit 2 fighters i suggest to you to have 4 fighters there cause you need to deal also whit french aviation.You can switch unit you dont need there to manage your pool put some in reserve to get your ju88a...ect...easy cake.
