Air, a couple of questions

Post by Smirfy »

I am enjoying the air side of the game qualified by its utility against the AI, but was wondering about a couple of things, My airforce bombs my units inside "the box" which is fair enough blue on blue happens though not I imagine at this scale and distance. Secondly my airforce seems to bomb a lot of useless hexes is there anyway to improve the profligacy of their tactical bombing?

Recon, and smaller boxes. Depends also on what you set your target priorities to.

What would be a good list of priorities. I'm not really sure I'm doing this correctly I seem to be bombing a lot of empty mountain hexes that are never used

Set the bombing area to zero if your after some specific target. Interdiction and Railways I wouldn't do this with.
