Grounded Tactical Bomber holds off Light Tanks for almost 24 hours

It is a bug, but the mods don't think so. Let me explain this flaw in the system. Planes basically have three values. In trucks, which is 0 value and they get killed instantly. When attacking, which can vary depending one the unit they attack.

When defending, which also varies. The 'attack' and 'defense' value are supposed to apply to planes that are flying. Planes that are on the ground but not in trucks are considered 'flying' in the game, so they can hold off many tanks indefinitely, as tanks have very low AA value. The best solutinon to this stupid bug which everyone wants changed is simply attacking with a combined stack of infantry and AA guns. Until this problem is solved, that's the best you have.

If the devs say its not a bug, its not a bug.

Then its just stupid design.

OK, so rather than militia I should simply ground planes on my border.. stupid!

Don't do that, it doesn't work all the time. I would not recommend using lots of militia either, they are quite easy to knock out.

I was kidding..

i did a test, 2 AA attacking a province with a grounded tactical bomber

the tactical bomber killed them both easily

this is bad game design, grounded planes should be instant kill. if they are on continuous patrol ok, but grounded ? common sense says they should be free kills

Wow, it used to be fine if you took AA. This is getting out of control.

Yesterday I had 2 LTs, 3 Inf and 1 AA attacking an airfield with 1 fighter. The AA was the first unit that bought it. Had to retreat. Need more AA.

Seems to be a bug, because it happens with normal units as well. 2 INF attacked 1 MOT, 1 Med Tank, 1 Anti-Tank.

Guess what, my 3 units did not fight back although being attacked. They lost half morale and I had to click them to fight the attacker manually, then they started fighting. Stastus before was none, after mouse activation "Fighting ".

Also I had the problem with 3 planes occupying the capital as well. It cost me 3 tanks and 3 INF. Wow! Once the enemy moved the planes out I could move in.

Explain me that. Germans could have held up the entire russian army with a few fighters. Not bad.....

Not bug? *rofl* How political do these guys go? First you get caught with a bug and then you declare it a "no-bug".

Good strategy. Let's see, how long the customers are willing to put up with this BS

As for this bug. It is horrific. I am going to go bring up my old thread concerning it. Could anyone who hasn't liked it please like it so the devs will take notice please?

Aircraft-Airfield Debuff

This is the current main thread by Butter Ball Bill in suggesting that this particular feature of the game be changed.

I hope this helps.

Thanks Kal.
