RE: Question about routing and shattering

Thank you for sharing these things. I purchased a paper copy of the manual, and nowhere within are they discussed.

Question about routing and shattering

<t> I have been through the manual but I could not locate any information about routing and shattering. I gather that getting routed is bad and that shattering is worse, but what exactly happens to a unit when it is routed? Can it move? Can it participate in combat? What, if anything can it do? How ...

RE: 2 frogs in mild blizzard (frogmarc welcome)

<t> Very entertaining AAR. Your progress is incredible. You have taken a huge amount of territory and mauled your enemy. <br/>
<br/>
That being said, I think you are in grave trouble. Your momentum was a key factor in keeping him off balance, but your front along the Volga hasn't moved much in a ...

It looks like your Eighth AF heavies are being allowed to roam the skies unmolested. Has he pulled all of the HAA from his factories and installations? If so, you should be able to make him pay for that decision by bombing from half of the ...

You have whipped the Luftwaffe. Congratulations. You hammer him every time he tries to oppose you. It appears that your main bane, at least during the daytime, is the HAA. Not much you can do about that, of course, except to avoid it as much ...

RE: How to bombing enemy airfield with night intruders?

<t> In order to bomb or strafe you need to send in your Night Intruder mission using the Multiple Plane option. Even so, depending on moonlight, your night intruders may not be able to locate their target.<br/>
<br/>
Individual plane Night Intruder missions will only patrol the target and try to ...

Thanks again for the interesting AAR. I check every day for an update.

I noticed on your 6/13/44 Campaign Summary that you put another 100+ Axis pilots out of action. You are eating him up with attrition. Keep your foot on his neck and don't let him up.

My daylight strategy (as of mid January, 1944) is not so much about strategic bombing damage, although this will shift soon. At present ...
