FLAK Bug?

[Canada1]

Hubert and company;

Been playing the game w/ first patch. Love the mods. Purchased German AA's, placed in France. Playing against AI. Each time an allied air unit (be it air, tactical or strategic, from UK land or Carrier) attacked a German unit (in France), the AA would defend against the incoming air attack---each time.

Before the patch, the AA would defend once per AA unit per turn, regardless of number of allies air attacks on same target, but now the AA defends each and every time against each and every allied air unit attack, regardless if the attack is directly on the AA unit or against adjacent unit(s).

Example: 2 allied air units, 2 allied tactical air units and 2 allied bombers attack Brest from UK. I have a German Corp unit placed there. Beside that unit is the German AA. If all allied air units attack in a given turn, using example above, that equals 8 airstrikes as the strategic's get 2X attack. My AA defends 8X...once against each attack in that given turn.

Is this a bug? Works out well for the Axis player if not a bug, as the AA costs about 100+ production points or so, and over time the unit gets strengthened...wipes out about 1/3 of incoming allied air units per turn...not a bad investment!

Cheers...

I think this must be a bug, unless of course the AA has been set to have multiple strikes.

Is this just in a particular scenario or have you noticed it in more than one?

Hi:

Playing 1939 World at War campaign. Have not tried other campaigns (yet). Did not adjust any properties or values of the AA unit, just purchased and use the AA 'as is'.

Is there a way an AA unit can be adjusted to 'multiple defence' mode?

Cheers...

Yes, increasing the number of strikes would have that effect, because in the Pacific game AA had two strikes.

Canada1,

Thanks for the report and consider this fixed for the next patch.
