Hi all, I'm updating my Battle of Britain Rules, and I wonder if anyone has any idea how to represent the fact that ammo for the cannon on a Bf110 was in 60 round drums, and the rear gunner or radio operator would have to change it. How long did this take? Would the plane have be flown sedately? Thanks
