This is in an actual game 4x4 team game where I took over the role of LW commander turn 11ish. I actually have the PBEM saves this timeJoel Billings wrote: Mon Oct 31, 2022 8:28 pm At some point after release we changed the range circles info for fighters, so now, a fighter unit set to Mission:Fighter will show a range circle equal to its max intercept range. The unit detail screen shows two numbers for these units, the first is escort range, and the second is max intercept range. IIRC, the escort range is always 3/4 of the max intercept range. So I think this has been addressed.
As for the AS being so powerful, my first question is in your test, how many fighters were within range? It looks like JG3 has 79 a/c, but based on the info reported of plane types, it looks like more than just JG3 intercepted. Could it be that the AS mission was able to detect the enemy far from the target, which then allowed other non-AS groups to join into the turkey shoot? Would be interesting to see this kind of thing at other times of the war. Once you get detection of an incoming Soviet strike at this time in the war, the system will tear it apart. AS gives you that chance of detection early enough to make a difference.
. 3 squadrons & 1 Stab were on AS. No other German fighters were involved.
