Operation Lightning ?gamey?

[Stevechase]

I have been playing Lightning, using all the assets to construct a well thought out approach to winning. But just recently I decided to just unloose all my Tomahawks just from the Ohio class sub and to my surprise many of them got through and ended up destroying the nuclear bunker in mere couple of hours game time. Kinda defeated the purpose of having all those other platforms. Does this outcome reflect real life

So far I've lost every time in less than an hour game time.

I've also failed at Operating Lightning Strike a couple of times on air. [:(] I hate losing. [:'(]

Is that the Pakistan one if so watching baloogans videos most of his were shot down.

Just ran this using Stevechase's tactic. Fired just 20 TACTOMs and 2 made it through (achieving 20% penetration total). Those first 18 TACTOMs had saturated the air defenses so 10 more would have definitely won.

Playing from editor mode and routing the TACTOMs around known bases, they weren't detected until the final 50nm of their run-in.

You need to kill the mobile TELs as well. Just hitting the bunker does not win the scenario.

Yeah, you are right. But just using the 100+ TACTOMs from the Ohio should still easily accomplish that.
