Bomber Command and D-Day

Bomber Command and D-Day

Post by john_txic »

I am in April '44 in my 700-Turn marathon.

Will I be able to stage daylight raids with my G-H equipped Lancs of 3 Group etc.?
The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.

I believe Bomber Command is (ahistorically) limited to night operations only.
While the battles the British fight may differ in the widest possible ways, they invariably have two common characteristics – they are always fought uphill and always at the junction of two or more map sheets.

yes, we were only able to get them to be night weapons, it was already HARD coded to be that way

(which it would be interesting, as even when they did fly during the day, they still flew the same style, so in game terms, they would be a raid of lots and lots of single bombers, vs a defence that was still workable, they would be picked apart)

we were looking at a way to be able to click plane type for the unit, which say a Lanc Squadron, could be clicked to be a night bomber, or a day bomber, a P47 D20, could be a Fighter, or a Fighter bomber (we had to go with changing the weapon loaded out for the Fighters, to do it)

it was still in the list of want too's, but at the time we had a lot of trouble with, do not know where it is now in the listing of things to do, things to try
