The confusion seems to be in you’re holding back naval ships for naval bombardment. The advantage about scrambling planes is that it forces the attacker to commit all their naval ships regardless if they want to or not. That’s why it is sometimes wise to scramble in a losing battle if the enemy is relying on bombardment for victory. The easiest situation would be when Japan invades the Philippine islands. If Japan was so aggressive that all they brought was two infantry with two cruisers as example. I would scramble the fighter in that situation because while I will lose the sea battle, if you choose to invade the island after the battle, you’re doing it without naval support which gives my defending infantry a better chance at winning.
Can an Improved Mech Infantry be supported by a tank and artillery?

Hey everyone.
I was reviewing the the Research & Development section and was wondering:
The Improved Mechanized Infantry Tech allows said unit to be supported by a tank much in the same as an artillery. (increasing its attack roll to a 2 or less instead of just 1). I was wondering if one could have a mech infantry supported by BOTH an artillery AND a tank to increase its attack roll to a 3 or less.

Im guessing no

Good question…I would actually say yes…
Maybe Kreighund will show up…
-
Attacking with two artillery and one infantry doesn’t bring the infantry’s attack to three. I think in this case the infantry will still attack at two
-
It is a 1:1 basis always.

Welcome, Nemesis420x!
It’s one or the other, not both.

Thanks for the quick response.
Just figured I had to ask based on how (and this is if I remember correctly, of course) marines could be boosted to 3 in amphibious in the original Pacific game when supported by artillery.
