Asterix use

Post by Chris21wen »

These one I can't find in the manual TR* and RS*. Taken from the commander's report (shown).

Also a very small error in the manual 26.2.4.1 Name of air group colour is listed as pink for rest, yellow for training. As you can see, it's the opposite.

I'm not certain but I would presume that the asterisk indicates those squadrons won't be available for combat missions during the turn.

Bit pointless if the case. Who thinks a group at rest or training is available for ops?

I find it quite useful when scrolling down the report flipping groups back to ops from rest. I prefer to focus on the mission column rather than the group names.
