re: #78 jamesfirecat

According to the mission breifing I can expect to see at least some American Airpower in the area though any Red Army air assets are currently grounded/staying on heat defensive.

I doubt I will be able to capture the supply drops but the game does go to surprisingly lengths in order to replicate little bits of history here and there.

(For example a particular anti-air battery at the Modlin Fortress in Poland got more kills than any other Polish battery so in game that unit has buffed stats. Another example is you have to Capture (well at least have to try and capture) Pavlov’s house when you are assaulting Stalingrad and are able to have your bombers attack barges full of soviet reinforcements who are being ferried across the river from the other side off map.)

Well, if its US airpower then you’re looking at the small number of attacks 8th Air Force made on German troops that RAF Photo-Recon (PR) Mosquitoes found in the open. I don’t think I have to warn you not to over-concentrate your forces, but remember that massed B-17 attacks are devastating to any ground units caught in the bombed area.
