@Soulblighter:

0/12 regarding AA 0/7 regarding intercept. I am lucky to get a single hit it seems.

:x

[Shin-Ji]

You actually did kill one bomber with that intercept.  It doesn’t show up in the log for some reason, but it happened.  1/7 is about what you’d expect (in fact, that’s why i sent two!)

I would expect 3 dead planes, maybe 4. So it is still way below average.

Including the AAs?  Oh yea.  I was just talking about the intercept specifically.  I know it doesn’t help you, but I’m in another game right now where I’m losing fully 50% of my bombers to AA fire.  So somebody is getting that luck!

[Shin-Ji]

How you feelin’ bout an intercept?

[Soulblighter]

No intercept the tactical bomber is the first or the last of the AA gun targets. I doubt it will matter, but you must decide which is which before rolling. This avoids having to roll on the forum. As much as I like some different dice :'(.

[Shin-Ji]

OK, I’ll say the tac bomber is the first.
