Ah, thank you

I have not tryed on, I usually stumble into war poor quality.

It appears the lopsided losses are a feature not a bug, but I find it annoying.

I am generally running trade protection at the recommended level plus 10 to 25%. I have high intelligence on all my opponents and have a very beefy fleet of naval patrol craft in squadrons of 12 to 14 aircraft. This seems to have changed my auxiliary losses not a bit. At this point I would suggest ...

Good point on intel, I missed that. The mix is KE with ASW assets and mixes of 4-5 in guns. I also use all the AV (later AV with helicopters) I have on TP, usually 4-6. I will be more aware of using Naval patrol aircraft for ASW also.

Thanks,

Pete

This is my second or third go around with the US and I'm beginning to wonder if the trade war and the sinking of auxiliary ships is a little skewed? I usually run 1.5 to 2 times the required ships for trade protection have two to four cruisers on raiding missions and as you can see from the results ...

You have done your homework and your reasoning is sound.

"In the game, though, there is an M113 model variant with shields" I will have to dig for this. Of course you're talking to a guy who has modified and Vietnamized a bunch of units to play 1965-68 ...

Could use the US M113 ACAV

In the future will there be the ability to set up dug in and be and reverse out of the dug in position and advance back into the dug in position? It was common for tanks to assume a hull down position in a dug in position and back up to a turret down position, reload and then advance forward into ...

I like creating company level defenses and delays against battalion level advances and assaults with only one or maybe two objectives on maps at least 7Km deep and 3Km wide. Lots of room for manuever.

Greetings,

Super job on AB2! So much more immersive and intense. I wonder if there should be a thread somewhere for database additions and corrections? I'd like to start with these.

Faction-U.S. Army-flight- 30-UH-60 transport flight needs to have years and months entered under ID.

Manual and hoykey menu says this is the combo but not ingame for me?

it wasn't intended to be used as an airplane operations simulator.

The on map aircraft will not run out of bombs/rockets, unless they go out of ammo status. I don't recall if I coded the aircraft with that flag, I would have to do an in-depth look at the unit flags. The normal on map aircraft ...

That's why the you need landing zones at an airfield, for operations.

As you know airfields did serve as LZs frequently in places like Oasis, Halloway and Enari. I like the idea of it also because there are so many helicopters based at places like Halloway and Enari that the whole base can look ...

Geez, I missed that button! I was dialed into the dropdown menu! MAP> Toggle- whatever. But I am glad I posted because you gave a nice explanation of the awareness feature. Thank you sir.

Only way I see to get a barrier is to build one during a game. Would be nice to set them up in the scenario like other field fortifications.

Thanks,

Pete

I can confirm that the O-1 Birddog 116502 listed as a OnBoardAirplane will not land on an airstrip and will get a “Cannot land except at LZs” message and for that matter is unrealistic as it is will not land on an on map LZ, same goes for the AC47 106571. However a A-37 Dragonfly 105087 listed as ...

Put a A-1 Skyraider Squadron at Pleiku with a Btl HQ and supply (on the runway), set to ground level in the editor and enjoy 18 turns in the air erasing Charlie. Way more lethal than off-map by a factor of 4-6x, I would say a bit overkill or off map is underrepresented in lethality. Probable ...

I have more suggestions if you don't mind. It would be nice to have hot key functions in the editor. It can be tedious in the pop down to load/unload units for example. I cannot find anything on selection of multiple units outside of a hex. It would be nice to grab multiple deployed stacks of ...
