Need help with Air Support....

Post by GBS »

In the Italian campaign I have moved air units to several bases on Sicily but after three turns I still show zero air support. Is there anything I can do to influence the buildup of support. A few bases have added some air support but most remain at zero. An odd thing... some air units seem to be flying missions even without support. What gives here?

Do you have them set to TOE AUTO? If that doesn't work you can set the TOE manually to 30-40%.. That should draw about 120 Aviation support within a turn

You can check air base supply detail screen to check what could be missing.

Had the same problem. Was lack of supply. For some reason some of the bases had a supply priority of 0.
