ground support issue, planes wont fly

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

ground support issue, planes wont fly

Post by cato12 »

I cant get bombers to fly ground support for some reason. I can manually get them to bomb units so I know its not a range issue, they also wont fly with escorts.

weather is clear so that isn't the problem. the bombers also haven't flown any miles and none of them are damaged.

any ideas where I am going wrong?

I moved all the airbases within 10-15 hexes and it started working again.

I had no idea the bases had to be so close to the front.

Yep check the ranges mate of the aircraft....maybe the reason why they don't fly!
