I am about done with this scenario I think, and I really liked it! Here are a few things that I noticed: With about 2 days left in the scenario, 2 Soviet subs surfaced seemingly on top of each other (I detected them with radar). Not sure what caused it and not sure if you could reproduce it. The Backfire (I'm assuming they were Backfires) raid got about halfway down Iceland and then they RTBed without launching missiles. Might be at their fuel limit. During one of my strikes I saw a ton of ASF aircraft parked on the airfields (certainly more than had come up to challenge me) and I was wondering why they didn't take off. They might be just readying, but I suspect that they aren't assigned to a mission. The supply ship that you assigned to the group can't supply any ship in the group, I get an error message when attempting to UNREP. No scoring? I didn't really use the strike aircraft from Greenland, but it was fun sending the ASF jets there on long air-refueled flights to try to thin out the hoard of Soviet fighters. I also took the 4 british phantoms and the 4 Avenger ASW aircraft and landed them on the Lexington. Not sure if I was supposed to do that, but they did help a ton when dealing with the huge enemy strike. I was caught short of CAP during that strike and definitely paid the price for it. Lost many ships and more aircraft, but 2 of my heavies survived so they are now inbound to the coast to pound the beach. I really liked the ASW element of the scenario, but you might want to give the ASW aircraft more than 1 or 2 loads. Many of my planes were defaulting to reserve loadout setting and I was running out of torpedoes. Air combat got desperate during the strike, the enemy planes tore through my CAP like butter and shot down any ASW aircraft in sight. Overall, might just be me, but I don't like the refueling aspect of this game (just my luck that my planes always go to refuel at the absolute worst times, so I just turn off the feature altogether), but I didn't use the strike aircraft from Greenland, the enemy ships were not even a slight problem, and no subs got close enough to target me. Only real threat was the massive air attack. I still loved the scenario though! I will update this post with losses and expenditures and any surprises I encountered tonight. EDIT: just jumped back into the scenario, and there was a long error message about how a bunch of red air strikes cant take off because there isnt enough aircraft for the flight size. To fix this, I recommend you go into the missions and deselect "Aircraft below flight size do not take off" SIDE: Red =========================================================== LOSSES:
