ironduke1955 -> Air Interception CAP (11/22/2014 1:38:03 PM)
|
Bit of a gripe here but I feel its valid, as the air war can begin to feel fairly futile, if dependent on a purely random system. It becomes to feel ridiculous if you put fighters in the air for a entire month and you fail to intercept one single enemy fighter or bomber. Especially if you pretty much know exactly where the enemy air attacks will be made.
it seems that if I know the exact hex where the allies are going to bomb I should be able to allocate CAP to that hex to guarantee intercepting attacking bombers.
After all the air war does not represent one bombing raid but a months worth of air combat.
It seems impossible that the Luftwaffe or any other air force would fly CAP missions and miss the attacking bombers and fighters for a entire month.
It would make sense to have CAP mission that can focused on one hex or one hex plus one that is the surrounding hex's with a diminishing possibility of effectiveness of interception depending on the area covered, but there should always be results from Air Protection subject to random factors such as area covered and a random results roll, but there should never be zero results.
