Flying Tiger -> what the %$#^^$ (8/19/2009 1:30:49 PM)
|
check out the combat report below (this is not the full report, just the relevant bit). It looks like these 44 Zero and 22 Oscar pilots have been awfully busy. 13 offensive sweeps, over a range of at least 10 hexes (coming from opposite directions) in one day. I wish i had that sort of stamina!!
Is this for real? Or is it a bug? They did no real damage, but crazy watching the combat animations - i thought it had stuck in some never ending loop for a while there.
