Laits, Yes, with what I propose you'll have unused LB's. The question is what is your priority, and how that priority shifts over the course of a campaign. For me as an Allied player in the 1943 campaign, the top priority for the first six months is to destroy the Luftwaffe FB force, and only secondarily to damage German factories. So the overassign of FB's to LB's on strategic missions lets me achieve that. The Allies, and in particular the US, can win an attrition campaign against the Luftwaffe. Then come 1944 when I've seriously weakened the Luftwaffe fighter force, I can put much more of the LB's to work. The other point I'll make is that I concentrate Fighter Command in Southeast England and have them do Area=4 size Air Superiority AD's over Holland and Belgium every day, allocating 1/2 of the available Fighter Command FB's per day. That allows them to maintain morale while also being up every day of the week. If you also allocate your strategic missions so some flight 2/4/6 days, and the others 3/5/7, the Luftwaffe gets weakened every day, while the Allies only fly half the days or less. Cary
