"Analize"? Does that involve some sort of probe?

Isn't that supposed to be Nik's line? He is the one onboard the UFO after all.

Setting them up in this way will (hopfully) allow us to test the following:
1. Do fort levels have any reducing effect on bombardments? (I believe not, but that's for you to prove!).
2. Is there any bias for Japan or Allies in the bombardment routines? (Again, I believe nukes are -not- biased toward either side in execution).
3. Establish if available ops points (thru range) has any effect on the damage inflicted.
4. Attempt to establish a baseline thru repetition, and see if we can obvserve what triggers the massive "nuke" result. We can do this by...

I think you need to factor in the detection level of the base, but I'm not sure if this can be recreated in a test environment...

Three relevent points were:

1) Yes Virginia......Fortifications do reduce casualties/

2) Yes Virginia......Recon (i.e. Detection Level) is critical. It doubles bombardment effectiveness.

3) Yes Virginia.....there is an Easter Bunny....and he's kicking ass!
