<t> Well in the case of the patrol planes on naval attack, thats a simple matter of removing the button from that aircraft type which to be historically accurate, should be done. Im not talking about tweaking the routine, Im talking about removing the mission type altogether. Fortunately this one ...

<r> Guadalcanal for example. I dont remember it all now, I wrote it out in the devs forum years ago but with in a week or 2 tops there were 6 different squadrons operating (I listed the squadrons and dates) - without problems - out of Henderson. No air HQ present, and army, marine, and naval air all ...

This thread is for OOB errors (like planes with the wrong range and stuff). You should take this game combat engine issue elsewhere.

Look again - Air issues AND OOB errors.

Yes, 200' - 200 miles per hour. 1 AA gunner should be able to smoke a target flying that low and that slow and coming ...

<t> PBY pilots have about the same experience in torpedo use that Dutch pilots have in naval bombing, would you agree?<br/>
<br/>
Have you ever seen the Dutch attain the hit rates with bombs as torps with the Cats? - Keeping in mind they drop MORE bombs than Cats have torpedoes on top of that. Not ...

Has anyone ever seen a strike of PBYs not score a hit? I cant say that I have.





Ever.






And I have played AE for 3 or 4 years now.

1) 2) 5) Air HQs have a range greater than 0 [;)]<br/>

3) They hit no fast moving warships but 2 AKs and 1 PB, higher chance to get hits there, even with low torp skill.<br/>

4) The accuracy is actually much lower than 80 ...

Better to assign them to a corps HQ. UI use Aus I corps.

<t> Do you want either your DEs or APDs shooting it out? RADAR will help hunting subs making the DE a little more effective in that regard. The DE pretty much just chases subs (and frankly subs seem to kill more ASW ships than the other way around). The APD is more versatile being able to fill a ...

Is there any in game benefit to doing those things? (1st Marine to ABDA for example. I was under the impression there is not, so why not allow free non-restricted command changes. The Allied player can easily drop off 1st Marine in ...

<t> Ground units get disrupted at sea. The longer they are at sea, the more they get disrupted. Landing causes disruption. Even if unloading on an empty beach, they will suffer some disruption. I suspect all the combat squads were disrupted and there was nothing left to attack with and hence the ...

Frankly, the only use I really see for tracker is to let you know when a ground unit has arrived at its destination.
