Should AA ammo values be increased for ships?

Seems like one day of massive air attacks will completely deplete an invasion force's supply. Increasing the amount would be fair to both sides and help correct this problem. Reflecting that not all ships are firing all the time at all the attackers.

Could this be managed with a late 43 onwards upgrade.
Prior to this it is rare to see the massive numbers of aircraft involved in the late war attacks.
What sort of increase, 20%, 50%, 100% ???
Does it have other effects, increased vulnerability, offload spotter aircraft????

Check the adjustments made in Da Babes mods. I've repeated that suggestion so many times (not to you, just generally!) that I don't want to go into detail. See the threads on it in the mods section.

+1.
John and the Babes team has done all this.

yup, this is dumb in AE. 2 day turns late in the war are simply not realistic for TF's operating near Japan. Broken I say

Have not even looked at da Babes since I am two years into two stock campaigns and will hopefully spend two more years at it. So, right now my concern in seeing tweaks to stock. Most likely will play da Babes my next campaign.

I have not seen any notice, or even hint that there will be another data patch, which this would require. Michael's work is exclusively EXE.

In my current PBEM P6 game I am sure sometimes ships are not reducing their AA ammo? Is that WAD is there a chance it reduces but not automatic?

Not all ships in TF can shoot, if attack comes from different aspect, I think.

I maybe wrong but I do not think any ships used AA ammo in that turn? I will keep an eye on it.
