Hi boys,
I'm very novice and so...please help me.
How can I execute the BOMB AF command? (and others bombing commands?)
I don't know when execute this command, in "order" or in "combat" phase!

Many thanks to You for reply

Hi Alcim, welcome on board! I've been here for a while so I can answer your question. The airfield bombing command is executed in the order phase. First you assign aircraft to the mission and then you order them to execute it.

To assign planes to the mission, right click on one of your HQs. Inside the HQ you click where it says Air Groups and you get a list of these. If you click on an air group you can see details about it and change its mission. Pick a bomber and change its mission to Airfield Attack. Also make sure you have some fighters with Escort command in the same HQ.

Once you have a bomber group assigned to this mission, you can order them to execute it. Go out to the main map view and double click on the same HQ. From the menu you select BOMB AF and then an enemy HQ to be bombed. If it's not out of range, your aircraft will now execute the mission.

The other air missions work the same way, except Ground Attack which will happen during the combat phase. If you press ? during the game (shift + / on my keyboard) you will get a list of keyboard shortcuts that can help you give your orders faster once you get used to them.

Hope this helps [:)]

Do not forget that you can execute airmissions only before any of these actions:

1. Move/rail HQ
2. Move/rail in/out units in HQ.

I personally prefer manage my air forces first, then operate with land forces during "order" phase.

Many thanks K62 and Agent Smith, You're very kinds.
Now I can bomb anythings!!!

Bye Bye
