After further consideration I no longer feel the fighter escort/interceptor rule needs any fine tuning. In my previous posts I expressed the view that the rule nerfed strategic bombing too much but I’ve since changed my mind. After all, bombing raids over inland German targets without escorts was near suicidal, especially during the daylight. It wasn’t until the Allies had deployed long range escort fighters and had outnumbered the defending Luftwaffe aircraft, that the Allies were able to conduct bombing missions without terrible loses. The same is true with the fighter escort/interceptor rule as it stands now and it should stay that way.

Hi I have another question if you dont mind…

I invaded iwo jima with a battleship, transport w/ 1 inf and 2 planes.

I’ts my understanding that I should get an offshore bombardment with the battleship prior to the invasion of the inf and planes.

But Triple A didnt roll the bombardment… is this a bug?

@DarthMaximus:

Sorry Funcioneta.   :cry:
Now you and TC have to try and prove the opposite.   :-)

I had no doubt of it. Not even a slim doubt  :-D

Cool program!  I’ll try it out the next time I’m with friends.

Interested ones please visit the Team Games forum, please  :-D

That file … yummy …  8-)

@Bierwagen:

Unfortunately, I haven’t seen any games under 7 hours either.  Ours actually tend to roll longer… lots of drinking and smack talk involved.

LOL It’s funny cause’ it’s true!!

Wait… they have TWO dice for technologies? That’s something I’d hoped for.
