Status: offline 		In a previous thread it was brought up about Napalm and Para-frag bombs. Has anyone done any more research into how we could incorporate these into the game?

I can see these being very effective for ground attack missions and in teh case of the Para- frag Airfield Attacks.

Napalm is already incorporated into the game. I believe when you city attack you have a chance to causing a firestorm on the target - caused by using incendiary bombs. If a firestorm results, the target takes massive damage to all industries and units in it. I just looked in the manual but didn't find it, but I know its in there somewhere.. Either its a basic city attack after a certain date or a different mission type... But either way I know its in the game - remember reading it..

Actually, I too thought that incendary bombs and napalm were 2 different things, but upon searching for "napalm" I found that they are indeed the same thing.

And here I thought napalm was a more recent invention of the Korean War era, how wrong I was!
