Air Force is too strong ??

I played the scenario of "Normandy 1944" before the patch and the newest patch (beta). I played as Allied against the Axis (AI). While previously the Axis put up a fairly reasonable resistance, so now the new patch has almost no resistance. I checked that the problem is probably lack of German units. Almost all of them were destroyed (evorpated) by air (inderdiction). After four rounds of the Germans were almost 4-5 division. Allied interdiction is 24-30% (using for this purpose about 40% of air units). Is not it too much?

interdiction has been a pain in my pbem game of berlin gotterdammerung as well. im not sure we can complain too much, as it seems historical to be pounded from the air. question is, are the germans getting the benefit of moving at night in games where the turns are longer?
i think i have save files for my pbem game if anyone wants to check.
might be a while before i can get them to you though. im in the middle of moving house.

Czesc Kamerad!
Which units in particular were evaporated by the AAF? What rules standard/advanced are you using? I know that in Overlord 44, there're half day turns (I guess that's the one polarenper refered to), so one can move (if possible) during PM turns. Normandy 44 has half-week turns... What about any house rules for Normandy 44? E.g. No heavy bomber on interdiction, just FB and MB?

Advanced rules. All "on", except "high supply".

No house rules. But before the patch I played the same way.

Now I play the same scenario (Normady 44), as German.
In Air Briefing Enemy Theater Interdiction is 29%. But when the German units of traffic does not follow any air strikes?!
Great BUG ??? Maybe someone will try my savegame.
Enclosed savegames packed 7z. It should be called to delete the extension ".txt"

Witam Kamerad!
Well, I just run 3 turns and I didn't get harassed by the airforce... even rail movement was unmolested. Attached the sitreps and the toaw.log file. Again, here my boys kicked some Allies without being attacked more than the usual from above. Change the .txt to .rar of teh attached file.
