Hi All

I am starting a new game from 43 to end of war as allies and wondering what targets u bomb to give you points and what mot too. does it make any difference if I bomb radar stations and ports and troops?
?

I was thinking of going all out on power stations as I thought the fuel bombing was broken?

Many Thanks

I have not done a full campaign, but from what I have read elsewhere on the board, the key is to go after the engine factories and any near by rail yards.

Good luck!

Railyards, preventive strikes to mandatory to keep free of them, Ports, Area, in the Ruhr.
A couple BC raids to Schweinfurt to ball bearings industry could put it under critical point.

I tried a long term strategy in two parts:
First: BC predominance, day raids are to support the nigth ones (radar sites, sweeps to NJ airfields, short range EFAC -AFAC - parts factories. Nigth raids to prepare to the second part, targets Area, and aircraft production facilities, trying to decrease the axis number of missions.

Second part: 8th AF predominance, when long range escorts are available, hiting area, Rubber and power.

Succes is medium.
