Oooh an interesting turn PZB landed Paras at the non base hex in the mountains across my LOC. It's an interesting trick and I have always resisted doing it myself but its timing is impeccable he has used so now I can as well in India. (If anyone wants to know how to do it I am happy to share but its a little sneaky ;) ) I have no issue with it per se so not complaining its a valid choice Unfortunately one of my carrier TF's got hit hard south of Iwo it was escorting a TF through the 'GAP' I have been sooo lucky so far its about time PZB had a little.
