That’s a great question! So I usually start with a google search on the country/unit/base I’m working on. Wikipedia for general info on permanent tennant commands. For example a UAE Squadron at their main airbase. I usually check the notes ...

RE: Scenario for Play test: Hormuz 2020

<t> BeirutDude, this may be too big a question to answer easily and I know these scenarios take a great deal of time and research so I don't want to trivialize it with a novice question, but do you have any tips on where you find data on the OOBs involved? For example, you mention that the real ...

RE: Effect of Stealth fighters ( F22 )

<t> One of the things that struck me the most when I first started playing CMANO was how underwhelming the F-22 and F-35 seemed to be. In the world of CMANO they definitely hold their own, especially once you become more familiar with using them, but they are not wildly superior to their Chinese ...

RE: Any updates on the strike planner?

I have in fact read that. The message on the Steam forum, however, certainly gives the impression that NO version of this will be forthcoming for CMANO. Which is fine, you'll notice I'm not complaining. Just pointing this out to people who may not read the Steam boards.

Here the latest update on the strike planner, from the Steam board:

I think the scoring needs to be adjusted so that only special aircraft (bombers, C4ISR, MP) of which China has few should cost the full amount. The loss of even a single fighter right now can mean victory is unattainable in some ...

RE: A Curb Stom Battle

This scenario is ridiculously imbalanced, impossible from the Argentinian side and ridiculously simple from the UK side.
The real world is not balanced.

RE: Real time - no compression

<t> I virtually never play 1:1. The slowest I ever go with any regularity is 1:2, if for no other reason than to "smooth out" the animation such as it is. <br/>
As a generally impatient person, I frequently have the reverse problem: I want the simulation to run even faster for a few moments and I ...

RE: Suffering from long freezes and slowdowns

<t> I've had this a lot. It happens seemingly randomly but maybe more frequently when I am using shift-F1 to select targets. Things will slow down to a crawl and sometimes the game will seem "frozen." Often (but not always) if I use right-click to change map position, suddenly everything will start ...

RE: Anybody got a 'Nightmares' checkpoint save

Since nothing carries over from one to the next, I don't think that functionally there is any difference between "doing them in order" through the campaign structure vs just doing them one at a time separately as missions.

RE: [Spoilers] Scenario 12: Hail Mary

ORIGINAL: Tailhook

On my last playthrough I noticed the various logistical ships were empty of ordnance. Perhaps adding more AKEs/give An AOE per group with a carrier magazine would help.
This is a good idea and seems realistic.
