Re: Plane Damage - does it even exist?

Some numbers on servicable aircraft.

On A-Tag [22 June] the Luftwaffe was credited with destroying 1489 aircraft on the ground and 322 in the air, while ObdL calculated that between 22 June and 5 July the Russians lost 4990 aircraft, compared with 491 German aircraft destroyed and 316 damaged ...

Re: Looking at A2A Combat numbers.



Important Remark on A2A.
I am not sure in how far multiple Fighter are/can be shooting at the same Bomber. I tried setting up AGs and flight sizes of 1 plane each with different plane types/names but unfortunately did not manage to get this to run yet.
So it is possible that multipled Fighters ...

Re: Quick Questions Thread


This question applies particularly to the German Wehrmacht's first turn, but really to any subsequent one as well: How much sense does it make to move aircraft—especially those belonging to allied nations like Hungary or Romania—from deep within the interior to airfields near the border right away ...

Only Q-Ball can say whether he got tired of the same story of losing thousands of men to a level 3 fort, only then for Rommel to show up with GrossDeutschland and his SS friends, adding insult to injury by routing a full strength Guards Rifle Corps.

Flights with 0 planes after interception odditie

When a AD is intercepted before being able to perform its mission the planes of individual flights can reach "0xplanes".
If those flights with 0xplane would all end up the same way It would be fine, but somehow:
Some of those flights then get removed and are not part of the final bombing combat ...

Re: Looking at A2A Combat numbers.

AA damages are carried over to A2A combats!

AA Damage on way to target is being passed on to following aerial combats (when done before the A2A).
AA damages are only tracked in the Aircraft Performance Statistics, nowhere else to see afaik.
We are shown 4 planes damaged that received 13 total ...

Looking at a T1 vanilla.
Not distinguished between factions.
416 damage events.

18 survivors (7%).

Another off'ness in regards to A2A numbers here is, that we have...

Re: Grand Campaign --- Q-Ball vs Sertorius21

One thing is that noone tried to use the reduced Combat Delay afaik, when looking at the Tyronec game the Soviet simply could not advance much quicker since there was always high MP requirements after combats (as also Ajax mentioned).

Then there have been several changes that favour the Soviets ...

Re: Plane Damage - does it even exist?

Note that all numbers repair/damage-wise here add up. I assume it is simply looking at the final AGs after the week.

Vanilla T1 Day 1
Performing the T1 ADs we get 80 planes damaged (likely 90%+ of this by OPS).
We start out the week with 830 damaged planes (someone must have set this up - I know ...

Re: Quick Questions Thread


If fighter bomber aircraft are set to "bomber" but isn't set to carry bombs, do they strafe? Or do the on-board weapons just matter for A2A?

Yes, plane use their guns/MGs/Cannons in A2G.
From how I understand it a FB set to Bombing is doing the same a TacB would do (but there are possibly ...

Accounting Issue in Air Performance Statistics (Air Phase Report)

Continuing the Air excourse, in A2A a general/continuous accounting error happens with the Aircraft Performance Statistics in the Air Phase Report see here.

The question is....what are Machine-/Autocannons supposed to improve if simple MGs are already oneshotting things?

Since I always wondered. Let's look at the damage done by the armaments.

Re: Looking at A2A Combat numbers.

Now I changed to a bigger plane, the He 177A-1 , more speed at that altitude, altough no idea which speed (cruise vs "actual at altitude") is used. And quite a lot more durability (54), one of the most durability we find for German planes.
Note: Western Allied Heavy Bombers have B-24 (~61HP), B-17 ...
