Status: offline 		How is it an 88 flak can unlimber and fire all in the same turn? In a game I'm playing as the French in 1940 my opponent set them up and fired all in the same turn. I thought this was not possible with towed guns let alone something as complex to set up as people have been saying the 88 flak is supposed to be. Seems if it's so complex it should take at least a couple of turns to get it battle ready let alone zero turns. This may also be true of other large caliber flak guns available to other nations. USSR 85mm AAA gun, US 90mm AAA gun, etc. Am I missing something? Thanks.

Status: offline 		Thanks Mr Vebber. Other large AAA guns do the same as the 88. I checked the USSR 85mm AA gun and the US 90mm AA gun. Same story.
