hey man! did you ever get this project fully completed? I was looking forward to making a new map with your art!
SBR revisited - some new algebra
-
yes, it sucks if you attack somewhere with 5 aircarft and you lose three.
-
Just losing any amount of aircraft for Germany or Japan is bad enough. This usually never happens since German fighters should always be protected by inf. in a land attack and by subs in a naval battle. A lot of the time you’ll just see ftrs. as a deterant to an attack.
There are a lot of times though (especially in A&A:CD) where transports or AA guns will score an unholy amount of hits on fighters. So be sure to watch out for this.
-
Germany and Japan’s 5 fighters are vital. There is no way they could replace them any time soon.
That’s why that one stinkin’ AA gun in karelia is so annoying!
-
Yeah, that AA gun in Kerilia is a real killer. In this one A&A game I played (and this was in the CD version), I [Germany] lost 3 out of 4 fighters (along with my only bomber) due to AA gun hits! After that battle (which I was defeated on all turns), I refrain from placing my Luftwaffe in any unnecessary danger.
Never before have we had so little time in which to do so much

What if you move the AA gun in Karelia out? I assume you can’t move the gun on your Non Com move the turn you take Karelia (though that’d be cool if you could!), but if Karelia were untenable after a round or 2 you could move the AA gun back to Eastern Europe where it’d do you a lot of good and the Russians none…

that’s what i do, but usually russia can muster a good counter attack.
you seem damned if you don’t use aircraft on the attack against karelia, thous extra 3 and 4s or lesses do a lot.
-
I would say hitting Kerilia with ftrs. is a must since you can still fly all the way from Western Europe to your target. But in the CD-ROm game, I’ll just make sure I won’t.
-
you got a major grudge against that game!
i guess they wanted to “balance” it.
-
Balance it!? Yeah like the Germans don’t have any other problems the way it is. Oh well at least when the play A&A:CD I see the Russians getting screwed a lot. I swear Russian inf. can’t defend for carp.
-
BMRs are better used as part of a INF/ARM/FTR land attack…especislly where there are no AAGs. However, as stated previously, the Allies can afford to lose BMRs in more SBR scenarios than the Axis(BUT, a combined Axis SBR bombing of Russia is ideal!)
