PVO interception

[chaos45]

Would need someone doing the under the hood math to speak up....but im pretty sure the Guards airbases do provide a benefit the air groups in them of some sort, its just been years since there has been a discussion on it.

You have to remember there are a ton of under the hood calculations going on in the game you don't see as a player.

At this point I haven't been playing and don't feel like digging into the huge rule book or past forums posts to find it.

I'm inclined to agree with you, there must be some reason for having them. Since updating the manual I've got a fair grip on what it says and I can remember nothing and a search found nothing but I had to stop before I completed it. I'll have another go tomorrow.

I couldn't find anything in the manual. I have a memory of asking on the forums about the value of airbase morale and experience and got no answer. If the number of Guards units has an upper limit then probably best to disband Guards Airbases.

guard airbases have no effect on other guards units.

You have a guards limit per type of unit- airbase, infantry, tank, mechanized.

Cav, mountain, and airborne can all become guards 100% if you get enough wins on all the units. Its one reasons soviet cav corps are one of the best soviet units in 1942 and 1943 as they can all gain guards status.
