WARdROBE Plays WW2

Day 5 brought redemption. The squadron successfully intercepted the incoming bombers, protecting the fleet and restoring confidence after days of loss and aborted missions. Now it’s Day 6 — the final day of the campaign in Corsair Leader by Dan Verssen Games. The squadron was ready to go on the offensive. Leyte Gulf was still contested, and there was damage yet to be done. Plans were forming. Targets were selected. The goal? Put a decisive hurt on the Japanese forces before the campaign closes. But once again, the war had other plans. 🚨 Air warnings sound. Incoming enemy aircraft. Instead of striking outward, the squadron is scrambled to intercept—one last defensive stand to close out the campaign. Will this final scramble secure victory in the skies over Leyte Gulf, or will the enemy have the last word? Let’s find out.

Day 4 never unfolded as planned. The mission was aborted, and the cost was severe—two squadron members were lost before the aircraft could even complete their objectives. The frustration was real. The squadron wanted back in the air, wanted answers, wanted payback. But the war doesn’t wait. As Day 5 begins in Corsair Leader by Dan Verssen Games, there’s no time to regroup or reset the plan. Alarms sound. Pilots are scrambled immediately. 🚨 Emergency Mission: Intercept Incoming Bombers Enemy bombers are inbound, and the carriers are once again at risk. Tired pilots, damaged morale, and split-second decisions will define today’s fight. The squadron didn’t get the mission it wanted—but it got the mission it had to fly.
