<t>Dear all,<br/>
<br/>
I read the replies on the shore batteries, but no one was mentioning that they should have a limited field of fire! This game is so big in scale, how shall you limit that batteries are only able to fire at sea targets? I don't know wether that works, but that is the major ...

I am quiet surprised this theme takes so much emotions.<br/>
I would'nt really care on how many planes were shot down by whom, they are at the end just statistic!<br/>
