RE: A thread of strategy, tactics, and tips?

<t> I'd add that you shouldn't forget about the 'artificial sighting' feature. Tough to use, but can be the gamebreaker if you hit it right. You can get planes dropping bombs on your enemy just as the sun rises if you hit it right. There is no real 'strategy' to employing it other than remembering ...

RE: Search Squadron Use
