Re: If possible what is the best option to run WITP AE on a M Series Mac?

Thanks BBfanboy - I have corrected my post so that it now refers to WITP AE - rather than WITE!

Re: If possible what is the best option to run WITP AE on a M Series Mac?

As for the original post - has anyone got this running on Parallels? I have it, and can run WITE2 and WITW. I am struggling to get WITP AE to run on an M3 with parallels other than part of the screen in a small window top left of the screen. This may be nothing to do with the emulator etc - but I ...

RE: How to defeat P-51 escorts?

<t> I think that there is a test squadron that is deployed in March - gaining 1 ME262/day. Historically it was not deployed (I believe) into front line service. In my current game - I discovered it when it shot down one of my recon missions and then attacked a bomber formation just west of ...

Wow - those are formidable casualties you are causing.

It will be interesting to see how long they are prepared to sustain such casualties.

Are you playing vs AI? Are they sending raids out of their escort range?

RE: What means total and number?

Zuikaku,

As I understand it... the 6 Cap (capacity) airframe plant will build 6 airframes/day.

I may be wrong with that - but it seems about right from what I have seen.

RE: What means total and number?

Maartenr,

I think that he was giving an example:

If you have a factory that produces 6 airframes and it suffers 33% damage - it will then produce 4 airframes.

I hope this helps.

RE: The best B-17 killer

Agree with Dobey on this. As an Allied player vs Germans, I never have problems with Bf-110 or 410 - in fact with properly escorted raids the 410 morale gets very low very fast and they 'break off' their attacks (much to my annoyance as I kill so many!).

RE: Night accuracy

I get very mixed results too. Sometimes I have hit the target with reasonable results (I have never had anything over 50% destruction) - but if you pick targets in urban areas, as you say, if you miss you cause some terror damage.
