ctboe1_slith -> US 305th Bombardment Group (12/14/2014 12:07:48 AM)


I went to a funeral today for a former member of the 305th USAAF LB Grp during WWII. This unit entered the ETO in 1942, participated in the Schweinfurt raid, and was at one time commanded by Col. Curtis LeMay. I came home and looked for this unit in the game using the find air group command via using the H hotkey, to no avail. I think this distinguished unit should be included in the game and am wondering if it could be added in during an update. It was based at Chelveston and flew B-17F's.

I'll add the group on my next update run.

This is what makes these 2by3/Matrix games so wonderful. One player notices an issue and the developers immediately agree to correct. Other companies could learn from this.

While you're at it, I don't see the 56th Fighter Group - the group that (along with the 4th FG) had the most number of kills. You gotta have the 56th!

I haven't done a role call on the units, but was assuming that all of the major squadrons and groups would be represented. I gather - possibly due to number of airfields - that not air units are accounted for?

I would say definitely add the 305th as well. I remember building a B-17 model about 40 years ago with the big "G" inside the triangle on the tail that made it a 305th bomber. Ever since then, that was my favorite group.

The 56th arrives on turn 2.



Great_Ajax -> RE: US 305th Bombardment Group (12/17/2014 11:04:00 PM)

Yep. The 56th is in all of the campaigns. If you do find missing airgroups or units, just let us know.

Apologies to all. It is there (Turn 3). Thought I'd looked for it in reinforcements
