Hi, I am new to the forum and have a question with regard to SBR in A&A global. Why send escorts? I read in the rules that all airplanes (fighters, tac bombers and strat bombers) attack (escorts) and defend (interceptors) on a 1. After this one round of combat the built in AAA in the base or IC can have a shot at each bomber and hits on a 1. Surviving bombers do their damage (tactical bomber D6 or strategic bomber D6+2). Why not send just SB as they have the same attack value as fighter escorts in the aircombat round? They cost only 2 ipc more. Or do the strategic bombers do not attack in the aircombat (attack=0)? Hoe does this work? Thx![link text](link url)
