An interesting variation on the point; but nothing got paired multiple times at once. Good call.
I refer to both TAC+FIG and ART+MAN as a “combat pair” (or if confusing, “air pair”) when I roll–but that pairing concept 1:1 is the key I think.
Just want to confirm two things about strategic bombing raids:

Just want to confirm two things about strategic bombing raids:
- Tac bombers are not counted as escorts.
- Escorts cannot come under AA fire.
1) Correct. Tactical bombers can never be sent as escorts (even with Strategic Bombers) and can only be assigned as bombers to Naval Bases and Air bases. The only time a tactical bomber is involved in an SBR is when it’s being used to bomber those bases. And it only acts as a bomber.
2) Also correct. AA fires only on bombers.
Thanks, I thought that was right but just wanted to make sure.
