Locksley Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Can somebody please tell me if I am just being daft or is it impossible to get air support on your own scns? Tried making the weather clear and all that but doesn't seem to work. Will give it another try but any help would be useful.

flamingknives Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 There is a 10% chance of it not turning up at all in CMBO. In addition, in CMBO and CMBB, aircraft turn up somewhere between the first turn it's available and the end of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonC Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 Also, to state the obvious, you have to add a fighter bomber from the "artillery" section of the forces screen. Just hoping because the weather is clear won't do it... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locksley Posted October 16, 2003 Author Share Posted October 16, 2003 Thanks for replies. But I didn't really mean that, I meant that when I make my own maps( on the scn edtr not QB) when I come to the unit choosing part I don't seem to be able to get fighter-bombers. Still haven't checked it a second time so it still could be I'm being daft. T 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingknives Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 Check the weather. If it is anything but clear, you can't select aircraft. Equally, the time of day can have an effect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonC Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 Time of day must be mid-day. No air support at dawn or dusk, or night. Weather must be clear, not overcast, raining, etc. If any of these conditions is not met, no aircraft show up on the unit screens. Change the battle parameters and they will show up. I hope this helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locksley Posted October 19, 2003 Author Share Posted October 19, 2003 Thanks all I checked it again and the reason it wasn't working was that time of day was dawn/dusk, set it to midday and it works fine. Well I say fine, I'm on turn 10 of 35 and it still hasn't appeared. Nuts. Guess the pilot's stubbed his toe or something. Ah well.

Tom just to be sure, add about ten of them in the second turn at 100%. that should be an interesting turn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
