<t>Youre right MrFrag thx. I looked back again and sure enough its there in the manual. But I'd seen that before and then got confused when someone else wrote something about these HQs and I got the impresssion they gave some other kind of effect than is listed in the manual-which more or less just ...

This is even more ridiculous. When I do a search for air HQ effects all I get for hits are the threads Ive mentioned it in. Come on doesnt someone from Matrix know the answers to these questions? Mogami where are you when I nedd you?

Thx von murrin. Its frustrating to have to sask all these querstions but so much just isnt covered in the manual. I've gotten to where I constantly recheck what is in therejust to be sure and even the stuff that is cvovered in the manual isn't explained well often.

<t>I went and looked up decimate and sure enough its used to describe great desitruction in general by Webster's. Its root does come from the latin as others have said but many people use it everyday in the sense of of something terrible happening and thats considered right too.<br/>

<t>I aksed this before in the betty thread but it seems to have been lostin the shuffle. Does anyone know what the e3ffects are for having the air HQ in the same base as your main bombbing effort?

I find that the Lightning Squadrons (at least the first few) are not all that effective. However I put this down mainly to the Squadron Leader. For fighters especially the Squadron Leader is vastly important as he ...

<r><QUOTE author="DJAndrews"><s>[QUOTE=DJAndrews]</s>I do this quite a bit with B17 squadrons when I decide to use them in an aggressive manner. You usually end up with 15-20 squadrons with 3-6 planes each in them (because the replacement rate is so low) and its just a pain to reset all of them from ...

<r>Well TJ hasn't posted for a couple days so I'll wait for that and see. I meant your comments at times were very personal magami. All the squash you like a bug stuff andf the like can not be typifeid as objective going into a test. I thinkTJ made the point that puting surface ships into TF's was ...

So you mean run a test againt the computer and post the results as the Allies? Sure I could do that.



What about sqadrons with all the extra pilots Mogami?

<r><QUOTE author="LargeSlowTarget"><s>[QUOTE=LargeSlowTarget]</s>In all my games I see the plane-pilot-ratio becoming unglued in many squadrons, regardless which side I play. It's worst with patrol squadrons, there are 40-50 pilots for 9-12 planes<br/>

<t>That's fine then. Thx for the explanation Chiteng.
