BoB 40 Campaign opponent wanted

While waiting for the patch, going for about two years now, I would like to dust off the 1940 BoB campaign.

I can play both sides.

Should be able to play 1 turn a day, RealIfe(tm) might intervene. [:)]

RE: Fighter escorts on delay

Off the top of my head, then Cruise speed is unloaded. Loaded speed is Cruise speed minus 50 mph :)

In the real world(tm) any nation would make more "shells" if there was a surplus of stuff to put in to the "shells", be that humans or materiel.<br/>

Nope. There is no access to the database.

We can nly hope that the patch that is in the workshop will solve the problem of the JG30x not converting.

NO until a new patch come put they will keep flying Night Fighters.

The game was interrupted When saving the turn, resulting in a corrupt file.
Your opponent must Wait for the "game saved" message to appear before doing anything else.

RE: Occupied airfield highlight?

The short version: You can't.

The slightly longer version:
It would be more than nice to have that option. in absence of that option, I pause the game, and either search the airfields individually or set up a waypoint, so I can see where the fighters will come from.

RE: BoB - Kevin v Swift

<t> I usually go for the industry with the KG 100, to keep his production down. Occasionally I use them to harass the Airfields that are crowded, a few bombs in the night will keep the bombed crews fatigue up and their morale will go down.<br/>
Low morale will not let them engage your bombers, they ...

<r> Research has been tuned, so it is no longer 100 planes a month that will give an advance.<br/>

From the Readme.txt and some calculus it seems that the formula is now:<br/>

1 month 100<br/>
2 month 200<br/>
3 month 300<br/>
4 month 400<br/>
5 month 500<br/>
