    Question regarding SBR, it has not come up before for us.

    When sending bombers for SBR and the interceptor combat is concluded, are bombers required to choose a target to bomb or may they decline acting as “escorts” for the bombers that do decide to bomb.

    Alpha 2 and Alpha 3 how does this apply.

    Situation:
    We want to send 15 bombers to bomb a MIC and it has 1 fighter in space, but we only want to use one bomber to bomb and let the other 14 bombers act as “escorts”.

    -already posted in the Faq thread.

    Only fighters may function as escorts.
    If you send excess bombers - either strategic or tactical - to act as padding, they are required to go on bombing runs and go passed AA fire once escorts/interceptors are rolled.

    That’s in both A2 and A3, by the way.  There are a couple rolling and casualty differences, but that much is the same for both versions.

    Righto.  It looks like bombers are forced to bomb target and may not elect to not bomb after going on a SBR.

    JJ,

    I can’t find my phone.  I don’t remember your phone number.  I fail at life.

    /sigh

    Sorry Alsch, its a busy weekend(baby showers, drywall, etc.) - I think it would be best to postpone America’s move till Monday.  Things are getting tricky with the allies regarding the multiple threats/fronts we have to consider.

    I still have not done all my hypothetical what if battles and they are at just a glance…dicey.  I want solid our favor should you attack.

    Thanks again for your patience.

    Alsch,

    Did you want to try to use the TripleA engine?  I think I can transfer the game over, although I do not have an Alpha2 mod for the game.  AA work differently with A3 so not sure if its a good idea.

    Hm.
    You’re right, there’s a few things that tripleA doesn’t do right in Alpha 2 rules - AA and convoy stuff are two I think of immediately.  But we can roll on the forums for AA and stuff, and fix other things manually.  That much at least is easy since tripleA lets you dive in and change things however you want in-game.  If we’re willing to do that, it’s possible.
    On a related note, I have since last posting updated my computer, and I don’t have aBattlemap on it anymore.  It’d be easy to put it back on, but the module for Alpha 2 would be tough to find.  I’m sure it’s possible, but I’d have to check around the forums to find it again.  Either option is totally viable according to me, just let me know what y’all’d prefer.

    And on a related note, since you can both see these posts, I’d like to apologize for dropping the ball so bad about this game.  I know it’s not a big deal, but it’s still not terribly cool of me to leave you guys hanging so badly.  I’m amazed how well you got back to me, hitting the ground running. 
    I won’t make excuses, but yeah, having to change your lifestyle when college requires you take a break for financial reasons makes you ignore certain things.    :lol:

    Let me know whatever you two would like to do!
