I will define some of my tactics openly to allow some discussion and to simulate effects of Ultra and secret service

Here is the second turn

Allies engaged in bombing missions in France ad they did not risking long voyage to south in daytime and use night bombers for souther factories. Germany is transfering avaible forces to France. And engaging in sneaky attacs. After allies make bombing runs some damaged bombers taken cared by italian forces.

Allies should focus on small factories first because they are the first to come online. attacking very large factories early wont change alot thing. Because conversion time is long so any damage is superficial.

Turn 3 looses.

It was an active Turn centered around France. He came By mediums and lots of timed sweeps. He was trying to catch plane on ground from the previous chases I think. Most of the time he couldnt.
There were so many recon planes around. It can be a good tactic to use. Keeping the Germans in High alert mode so Fatigue will increase. But I lower the Treat alert ranges so it is no big harm.

Turn 5 looses

[guctony]

If Intel Correct 400 B17 attacked Nates Factory. I think 100 damage level is not enough for such a attack [:D]

[guctony]

Moon light works both Way It seems more the 50 evasive action accured. If it is not related to Bomber crew exprience or morale it is very important.
But maybe it is internal mechanics when faster Night figters become avaible bomber wont be able escape in moon light so easly I hope.

Current location of flanks

Flanks guns will be relocated in every 3 to 5 days to different places.

Currently I am engaged with italian Air force in the channel. So Flaks are positioned there to damage Airbase attacks. The idea is to make Flaks damage the attacking plane and italian fighters make the kill. And some bomber formations also captured by these guns.

maybe not the best idea......railroad Flak is moved to its new site and it is shown there.....but that does not mean it is there yet.
when you move them you get a message.....with the time till arrival in days

[guctony]

I have to correct myself moves will be made 5 days after their arrival.

Keeping Flank in a place too long will probably reduce its effectiveness
Because player will start to bypass them

Now thats what I call Turkey shooting

I say 40 fighter versus 120 bomber is fair trade. I dont count italian units

[guctony]

lonely bomber Group

[guctony]

turn 8 loose first time Axis looses are more then Allies. But it worth the 40 P47

[guctony]

turn 9 looses

[guctony]

ultra code breaker did it again. They break in to Guctonys private communication codes and see that what was the big plan.
Now allies have very good intel about what is coming!!!!!!

[guctony]

Italy out of war so first phase of the war is complete.
Here is the looses

[guctony]

we will certainlly miss those expertan Italian pilots. We hope we can see them when facist airforce re-installed

[guctony]

In 14 days of fighting apart from one trial big raid into germany most action has taken place in the channel. As you can see allies first destroyed Aircraft industries near his attack zone and now focused on Railway stations. He is systematically attacking railway stations. Although a classic Air supremacy action taken place with italian Air forces. it was mainly a delaying action and to see how close action would result. It is clear that so near to allies base it is too difficult to sustain operations. I belive both sides have taken valuable lessons. Allies mastered the art of phased attack. He is using timed attacks waves to hinder my operations catch my plane on ground and to dissaturate my forces. We tried to destroy as much as fighter possible. We plan to go for figters as much as possible. If we can weaken allied figter arm both morally and tactically it will be an advantage to final phase of the war.

Now we are clearly on defensive. We will not get close to channel until our wonder weapons come to effect.We will be waiting in Germany conserving pilots and limited production capacity. we hope there will be enough time after winter to stop the stem.

Much is also depended on weather. if it goes bad we have a very good chances to preserve forces.

[guctony]

currently our initial goal is allmost met.
I prefered to sacrifici Italian forces to Tally a large number of Allied Pilots out of action. I cant surely know did it effect the overal exprience of the allies but When dogfights start again it will be a help I belive
