okay… i finally dug up the alpha+2 rules for sbr’s … this comes into play so seldom in this game, but i obviously should have been paying attention. it would appear that intercepting with my lowly 2 fighters is hardly worth the effort… as your escorts and bombers get to fire at them… good chance i’d lose them both.
so… pick your targets (factories or bases), fire the aa guns against your bombers, and let’s see how bad it gets. yamamoto is not happy about this. he has all these planes sitting on carriers right there in tokyo bay… watching as the industrial heart of japan gets flamed.
