<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: gradenko_2000<br/> <br/> The CVs as you're describing them are basically just [device type * CV multiplier for that type].<br/> <br/> Yes, it is possible for a lot of infantry squads to have as much displayed CV as a few Tiger tanks, but the way the simulation work...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: HermanGraf<br/> <br/> Reading stuff like this and other posts really discourages nubs like me from learning the game. It seems so broken <E>:(</E>.

rkimmi come back! come back! he dumped you for Pelton but he still likes you... (I guess)..

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: morvael<br/> <br/> I see the climb variable used in air to air combat between two flights (aircraft from single air group taking part in a mission) where a randomly determined value between 0.5 and 1.0 climb is compared to the other's side unmodified climb value an...

<r> A bit more food for thought, from Aces High - these guys seem to be pretty serious about their game. A caveat about quoting figures from a game... a game is a game, of course, but I think these folks took a lot of care about this, given the game is pretty much about flying.<br/> <br/> I think th...

<t> Another thought is that I wouldn't be surprised if Stalin published or leaked inflated performance values for the aircrafts, just to confuse everybody and make them fear the Red Army.<br/> <br/> After all, if there's one thing that I'm sure Stalin and his generals didn't want was to look weak. T...

<t> Alright... another example... I-16 Type 18... a 1938 design, is listed with climb rate of 3,192 ft/min, still over-climbing the Spitfire IX, a 1944 design, which has better speed, power, power/weight, engine, turbo-charger and everything else one can think of. Same thing with Hs 123A and other b...

<t> I'm still skeptical...<br/> <br/> I-153BS.. loaded weight 1,900 kg... power 775 hp... power/ratio = 407 hp/ton<br/> Spitfire IX... loaded weight 3,350 kg... power 1,720 hp... power/ratio = 513 hp/ton<br/> <br/> So the Spitfire has more speed, power, power/weight ratio, maneuverability and everyt...

<t> Thought of sharing some numbers I crunched:<br/> <br/> This is for the Soviet Union, on 6/22/1941. The numbers below are for the Armament components in Active units (pools excluded); that is, those components that are just produced under the "A" numbers in the Production screen. That means they ...

<t> Let's say that you have two forces, and after the initial shoooting and destroying and disabling you only have the remaining weapons below, and all other factors are equal (leadership, morale, etc...):<br/> <br/> Side A: 50 PzKpfw I (CV=7 each; total CV = 350 or 0.35)<br/> Side B: 20 JS-1 (CV=9 ...

Appreciate it, morvael.

I see in the editor for the 41-45 scenario that Shock Army HQs have a start date in 1941, but I can't actually create a Shock Army HQ, right?

Another question... a Shock Army... does it have a Combined Arms HQ capacity with 24/21/18 cp, or a Tank Army HQ capacity of 15?

<t> Wow,<br/> <br/> Both are excellent posts. Thank you both so much for them.<br/> <br/> I reckon units in air reserve will slowly gain experience, and they will gain that faster in the front (provided they survive).<br/> <br/> Aw man, where that isolated, uninhabited atoll for me to bomb through t...

<t> I read this in 9.3.2:<br/> <br/> "Air group units gain experience based on the number of missions they fly. Air group units may automatically fly training missions each turn during their player turn logistics phase in order to gain additional experience. These missions will increase the chance o...

<t> Does air training go faster in National Reserve or is it the same if I send the air units to some safe bases in the backyard?<br/> <br/> The manual doesn't state any bonuses for training in national reserve rather than in a base, other than the fact that going to national reserve gives the unit ...

<t> Here's another idea: just get away with the air base's ability to move.<br/> <br/> If you want to get a new air base somewhere, build it (what takes 7 days), then get the aircrafts from reserve.<br/> <br/> If you don't want the old air base, either keep it with no airplanes (and keep the man/wea...

Cool

I'm going to move my Transcaucasian air bases to be on top of the oil wells then

Thank you, Gabriel
