Thank you so much for this update. That thread is one I’ve been following behind the scenes for years. I can’t believe Larry Harris didn’t do more to improve this stand alone game.

Has anyone used the escort/interceptor abilities in the Pac.? If so is it worth it?
-
I have yet to see a strategic bombing raid in any game I have played so far. The interceptor escort rule should have been implemented in past AAA games. It really balances it and makes it more of a huge risk to bomb industrial areas like it was in real life. That being said, I haven’t seen it used because I haven’t seen a SBR yet :-P . Only worthwhile doing if you have a massive airforce, like Japan.

I’m guessing that we’ll see a bit more of this in Europe I would imagine.

If you’re being SBR’d in AA40P you’ve probably lost already. Europe will be the place to really evaluate the new rules on it.
