RE: Interception of Transport Planes

<t> Sweeps do not intercept transport missions Roger. They tangle with either CAP or LRCAP under the right circumstances, thats it.<br/> <br/> What you might experience is one of the following:<br/> 1) leaky CAP due to proximity between bases.<br/> 2) inadvertedly set LRCAP<br/> <br/> LRCAP against ...

RE: Sigint's Usage by the AI

No. On a strategic level the AI is script based and has very limited flexibility. Means it will usually act instead of react, with the possible exception of a script being triggered by the capture of a specific base.

RE: Interception of Transport Planes

<t> Air missions are strictly point to point. The flight path is not modelled into the game engine, so interception in a hex along the flight path is impossible.<br/> <br/> You have two options:<br/> LRCAP the destination base (actual air combat happening but not modelled in the replay as it happens...
