Re: Defending Russia

If you can get the cannon of the LaGG-3 in a position to fire, sure, you can have some success. But the numbers don't support that assumption.
Thanks for writing it up. But it isnt an assumption for using them. I am using them because I want to use them.

Re: Defending Russia

So I've played a number of games against the AI and have done pretty good as the Soviets. i.e. try not to get surrounded and slowly retreat until Winter. I think I've figured out supply and defense, building forts and so on. I am surprised how often the Axis just blow through units, despite being o...

Re: Anyone here play solitaire (both sides Human-controlled)?

It is a good game for a few rounds, but is boring....

Re: Thrashing Around in Russia - Again. RKhan (S) vs Strategator (A)

I am so happy you wrote the AAR on the form, thank you for sharing. You're welcome. Also I'm curious if you invented the "HLYA lines" as I called them since I saw them on your AAR? Its where you arrange your rubbish units in lines while running away in the hope of avoiding an encirclement...

There is a complex story here
Does not look like a complex story at all. To me, there is a "severe skill mismatch" in this game. Unless I missed something.

Re: GA and AS

Clearly there are some players who think it is all fine as it is, I would say that they have not played against someone who is using GA to it's potential. You are 100% "wrong" in statement above. Maybe you should look at your post below before making a comment above. In this link https://...

Re: Ground Attack during winter

two points in this thread.

1. Too many causalities by bombers.

2. And AS interception.

How many aircraft are assigned to this AS mission? What we saw in the pics was a response by no more than 12 of your aircraft from one flight.

Are the Min and Req AC at 0/Auto or are you using a custom setting?
There are so many variables. :-)

Re: Ground Attack during winter

Good luck, I am sure you will figure it out eventually. But AS is not broken. I went on a very deep dive on figuring out AS after being the recipient of AB bombing. (I did not have AS setup either). You can find the Joel post stating that AB size matter by the way That is the third time that you ha...

Re: Ground Attack during winter

Jubjub showed me (us on the forums) to set AS up on the airbase it is on and OPS losses were non-existent. Now after some rework done by the devs in March timeframe, you can fly range with AS and suffer few if any AS losses now. AS is very viable now.

Re: Ground Attack during winter

Now back on topic here - was there an AS umbrella at all? Or were you relying on auto intercept? Beacuse the closemost airfields are not exactly 'close' - and as I said above AS with a large range simply means the planes 'patrol' all over the place, thus either hardly intercept or if they intercept...

Re: T3

I wouldn't say it is decisive however a close game is going to be determined by the cumulative effect of small actions, and the Soviets are killing 1,000-5,000 men a turn with GA plus as reported turning potential lost battles into wins. Coming back to this comment, it is very questionable that you...
