RE: Heavy bomber defence - what are the best base defense tactics?
Posted: Thu Oct 05, 2017 9:27 pm
Any allied player who flies his bombers, especially at extended range, against heavily defended targets isn't a good player (without fighter escort).
The two most important assets to the allied player is his CV fleet and his USAAF/RAF bombers. Flying them at extended range and/or against heavily defended targets with NO fighter sweeps and fighter escort is the same as losing the game.
If the Allied player properly uses his high-altitude sweeps and flies the bombers after a few days of sweeps can't be stopped.
