understanding combat

<t> I am playing the BOB campaign. Can some one help me understand what's happening with the planes in combat? Once two groups engage,<br/>
I want to be able to understand the combat by looking at the icons and the messages. I noticed that the squadrons break into groups of planes 1,3,5 etc. What ...

RE: cannot start game

<t> I think I have realized what the problem is. I am out of country. Wanted to install the game on my new tablet and am not getting the option to download the game even though it shows it as registered. Had some one else try and download on my behalf. It seems what he sent me was probably the ...

RE: frustations

<t> and Sarge,<br/>
it is not the take of time that's killing me as I have enough force up in the air and as close to the troops as game allows. But it is simply not possible to intercepts raids. Besides this the main pain is that the likse of b17s find and hit targets with 15% light making a ...

RE: frustations

<t> sudden death - isn' that where the total points for the allies have to be less than the number of months played? So at the end of 300 turns (10 months) the allies must have less than 20 points??<br/>

Has ANY ONE ever won a PBEM 1943 campaign as German? I am sorry but if there is no REAL ...

RE: frustations

oh I forgot to mention that often the 'bouncing' allied fighters are the ones with red icon. I understand that red doesn't necessarily mean out of fuel but then why do some of the other squadron also rtb-ing don't go red?

RE: frustations

<t> The engagement is typically of this nature- say intercepting a typhoon raid (150+) escorted by 200 odd spitfires. 90 fw190a5 intercepting the spits... invariable the raid gets spread out in a line. Then as they begin to RTB the 190's bases become behind their line of travel. Once they are out of ...

RE: go 229 is it even possible?

<t> If I did my calculations right, with 10 assembly lines with required engine and spares devoted to go 229 the planes may become available May-June 1945. What's left to do by then?<br/>
<br/>
It seems these planes are there as some form of a 'trap' for the German player. In effect not achievable ...

frustations

<r> The new change in this release which allows returning planes to combat is extremely frustrating as more than 60% of my losses are to enemy planes on RTB. The problem seems to be that if any escort remains behind the bomber even if bingo fuel and RTB all squadrons attacking the bombers when they ...

RE: go 229 is it even possible?

<t> Do tell how you find the plane.<br/>
<br/>
I am in a pbem game playing axis in 43 campaign. We have played 30 turns and the industrial damage has jumped up to 11 (total score 22). Allies are scoring a point of damage every day or two. Primarily hitting industries in France. So why should he ...

RE: go 229 is it even possible?

<t> but what is 'lot of work'? would 10 assembly lines suffice, 20 or 30?<br/>
<br/>
(30 = build nothing but go229, 20 = damn! = 80 engines = fight only every 3rd day, 10 assemblies = 40 engines could do)<br/>
<br/>
one other question -<br/>

go 229 is it even possible?

<t> I noticed that the introduction date for go 229 is set to 9/45. Would it be possible to get the plane by mid 1944. Against a human player is any later (like 1945) not too late? I am wondering if I should switch to me 262. I remember reading some where on the forum that the number of days needed ...
