here are the B-52 again... I have 85+ undamaged fighters at Taung Gyi set to 90% cap and I have 108!!!!! fighters at Rahaeng flying LRCAP Taung Gyi and all I see is 16 planes meeting this "last" wave (while I have to say the two "waves" before were like not worth mentioning). So nearly 200 fighters set on full cap against those 100 4Es result once again in more than 40 fighters destroyed for the loss of 10 4Es.... lol lol lol lol lol [>:]
200 fighters, 16 in the air... at Imphal my recons are meeting more than 100 Allied fighters on Cap every turn... [8|] With the bombers there, there are a max of 125 fighters so talk about crap programming when I see 16 out of 200 fighters in the air (while 40 - 60 are destroyed on the ground every time) but also I see 100 out of 125 Allied fighters in the air every turn... that´s at least strange and can´t be justified with radar...

More flak when the (or more) important airfields are attacked (that´s where the flak is) and less flak when ground units are attacked (as they are spread out and can´t be all at the airfield, port....
Well Mr. Gary Grigsby thinks different... lol

as mentioned before we have a house rule of using only "real" combat units to create ZOCs and to cut off troops (something suggested by my opponent - like not bombing emtpy bases constantly... [8|]) but a fact is that there are now 3 Chinese guerilla units (not "real" combat units at all!!!) that have created a supply path to Homan (3 hexes, with every hex such a single f***ing mini unit in it). This has cut off 150.000 of my troops and what is even more important, Homan that has been cut off for months with fights against "real" units has now a supply line over 3 clear hexes. This is just bullshit and I really wonder what my opponent is thinking about that as not many turns ago I asked him if he is NOT trying to use those units (I reconned them and got "5th Chinese guerilla unit"...) with his reply that he wouldn´t do it.
Sorry Pavel, but that´s something I´m not only unhappy about but this is really pissing me off. If Homan is able to draw supplies now, then months of siege was worth nothing because my opponent isn´t following a house rule that he suggested... [:-]

as mentioned before we have a house rule of using only "real" combat units to create ZOCs and to cut off troops (something suggested by my opponent - like not bombing emtpy bases constantly... [8|]) but a fact is that there are now 3 Chinese guerilla units (not "real" combat units at all!!!) that have created a supply path to Homan (3 hexes, with every hex such a single f***ing mini unit in it). This has cut off 150.000 of my troops and what is even more important, Homan that has been cut off for months with fights against "real" units has now a supply line over 3 clear hexes. This is just bullshit and I really wonder what my opponent is thinking about that as not many turns ago I asked him if he is NOT trying to use those units (I reconned them and got "5th Chinese guerilla unit"...) with his reply that he wouldn´t do it.
Sorry Pavel, but that´s something I´m not only unhappy about but this is really pissing me off. If Homan is able to draw supplies now, then months of siege was worth nothing because my opponent isn´t following a house rule that he suggested... [:-]
