Day 8 is complete... 12th Air Force - Day 8 I sent some B-26s up to Rome and was surprised to find that the Luftwaffe has pulled out of the area... [image]local://upfiles/32953/423D68AD53D24A5DB21BD08CA06C6F94.jpg[/image]

quote: ORIGINAL: Richard III Just a question, I`m into week 3 in the `43 full campaign, pounding the Troops holding the Gothic Line. My 12th. AF Spit Sqds. have yet to transition to P-47`s. Are you actually flying them ? I wonder if the change - over date is random. Yeah, I have 6 Squadrons up to strength and will start flying them next turn. I made the switch by going to the "detail" screen for the units and clicking "change aircraft type". There happened to be 90 or so P-47s in the replacement pool so I went ahead and snagged them... I am really not sure if allied units upgrade automatically or not. I had always assumed you had to do it manually but that was a long, long time ago...

And here is turn 10: 12th Air Force - Day 10 Lots going on today but I had to contend with the weather... I can not wait for the invasion to begin so I can get my P-40s closer to the action. Here is how the real 12th AF fared: 8/26/43 NAAF Over 80 NASAF B-17’s, with P-38 escort, bomb Capua A/F. More than 100 ftr-escorted MBs hit Grazzanise A/F and satellite field. P-40’s bomb Carloforte and strafe S part of Sardinia. NATAF MBs and LBs bomb tgts on toe of Italy, including railroad junction at Locri and gun positions at Reggio di Calabria and Villa San Giovanni.

It really is very interesting to see things from "the other side of the hill" and kudos to you on what looks like a very successful game being played in which you are causing a lot of damage for quite limited loss.

BY - Very much looking forward to your next installment. I can imagine how much time it takes to capture screen shots, write-up the summaries, and post the results in PDF files. Your writing is very technical and precise. Your efforts have been a big help to me in understanding the many of the detailed complexities of this game. Thank you for sharing!
