paratroopers? soon.

the US has or is in process of building almost all of their available 4-turn bombers until 1944.

but their production multiple increases to 2 this turn, so they should be making over 100 build points a turn now. :patriot:

that bicycle division in nagasaki will definitely turn things around for japan, i can't wait. the P-61 the US just built looks bad-rear end too. how does night fighting really work, anyway? is it just the art of being able to tell where the enemy is when they can't see you?

also your picture under "Australia deploys a Mosquito fighter unit to Melbourne:" is the same as the one for USSR deploying around Perm two pictures or so earlier.

The total value is 36:12, a ratio of 3:1. The initial combat modifier is +6. That is decreased to +2 due to the snow. The Soviets have four white print units, the negative weather value is reduced to a 0; so the total combat modifier is back to +6.

that bicycle division in nagasaki will definitely turn things around for japan, i can't wait. the P-61 the US just built looks bad-rear end too. how does night fighting really work, anyway? is it just the art of being able to tell where the enemy is when they can't see you?

also your picture under "Australia deploys a Mosquito fighter unit to Melbourne:" is the same as the one for USSR deploying around Perm two pictures or so earlier.

the photo was fixed.

For night fighting; any aircraft mission, excluding naval air combat or a port strike, can be done either day or night. Unless the player specifies night, the aircraft missions are made during day.

If it's at night, the bombing and ground attack factors are halved. And during the air combat, the result is one result below what the normal result would be; an AX result
becomes a DX, a DX becomes an AA, an AA becomes a DA and so on. A DC result is unaffected. Also at night, only night fighters contribute to the total air combat values.

Boy oh boy, just look at all those aircraft carriers the USA is building. I know they built the things by the shitload historically, but it's still kind of impressive.

yep, during the war, the USN had plans for 32 Essex-class ships and only built 24, before the Midways were started. One would have to assume in a larger war they would have planned and built more.

Rorac posted:

I still only have the most vague idea of what's going on, but more P-38's is never a bad thing.

Your unit is probably going to Europe, either via the Newfoundland-Greenland-Iceland-UK route or the Carribbean-Brazil-West Africa-North Africa route.

we are all growing old together and slowly turning into powder :corsair:

the US would need an HQ unit there since they do not cooperate with Communist units. But you could launch ground attack or strategic bombing missions with American aircraft against the Axis units, then the Viet Minh forces could fight the ground combat. that actually gives me a good idea for some filler.

Resources and build points can be given with lend-lease like with the other countries, at least until if there is a Communist/West war.

"The Axis spend 2 of their surprise points to decrease the Axis AA value to the highest one of two d10 rolls for the AA defense."

i suspect the first Axis in that sentence should be Allies
