Transport planes intercept possible?

Post by Dave25210 »

Hello, would anyone suggest how to intercept transport planes? When I see that enemy sends supplies to location with transport planes I setup air superiority air directives for that area, but never manage to shoot down a single transport...and despite having AD's set for both phases, the only casualties that enemy has on transports are crash landings or some other operational issues. And , those transports never fly with escorts, and it's unclear whether fly day or night missions. Setting up night fighters for AD air superiority didn't help either. Battle report shows air-transported freight, air HQ's for both sides, no intercepts are listed for defender and only those transports planes for attacker...


Any ideas? Thx.

I never managed too. I believe it has not been implemented yet.

I see ; well, maybe in the patch down the road, or, in witw2. However, considering the level of detail that WitW has already implemented and which is plain incredible, im surprised that enemy runs unopposed air supply missions every turn , delivering many hundreds of tons of supplies to troops each turn, and I have no way to stop or slow that.
