Edwin P. Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Any chance of adding a Air Unit Screening command to fighter units? This would hide adjacent land units from spotting by enemy air units (not land or sea units). Of course, an air unit performing this action can't attack or intercept. The screening effect would be lost if the air unit is attacked, and the combat readiness of screening air units would be reduced by 25% to reflect the dispersal of the air unit over a large area. Just another idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blashy Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Getting a little too detailed here. I've found weather to be frustrating at times, grrr. Surprisingly realistic that snow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwin P. Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 What are the specific effects of Snow - ie Winter Spotting is reduced by ? Movement is reduced by ? Combat Readiness is reduced by ? Sea Movement is affected by ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blashy Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Snow = you can't move your airfleets. They can't take off. Both sides are without airpower. So for those turns, you can't see further than what you ground troops can see. Other units have movements severly restricted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally the Reds can whoop rear in the The Russian Winters and also similarly the Luftwaffe won't be able to run round the clock bombing raids on Neutrals and England into Winter! D-Day will have to be done in good weather I'm happy about this aspect... any part of amphibious landings in with this Blashy? Not like you can unload an amphibious assualt in the icey waters of the Baltic, Norwegian Coastline? That's gotta be frozen most of the Winter and Spring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Does that mean that during snowy periods we won't be able to move airfleets at all? Or can we just not use them to launch attacks? There is a difference in that if the enemy has broken through your front line it is going to be rather frustrating seeing someone chew up all your airfleets while you are unable to do anything about it. At least that would be fair enough for one turn, but if the snowy weather goes on for quite a few turns then it could be quite decisive (and depressing for the person losing their airforce).

You can "Op move them" (... as imagined, break them down and run them here & there on road or rail) but you cannot rebase, so keep some spare toll-booth change during winer months, just in case. Maybe wise to plan ahead - anticipating the winter restrictions, and maybe re-place your valuable assets somewhere safer? And BTW, you can attack, but at much reduced effectiveness.
