Thanks for the quick clarification!
I guess we just had a lot of lucky rolling for these attacks in our first game. I don’t think we ever lost a plane, which made me question whether this was allowed. But I can see that the probabillity makes it a risky strategy in the long term.

Hi. I need some clarification about using air units to conduct long-range attacks on territories containing only ground units (no aircraft or AAA).

In a recent game, we were using fighter and tacical bomber pairs, and strategic bombers, to weaken or clear territories which held only 2-3 ground pieces. This proved to be very one-sided. Italy pretty much cleared all French and British troops from North Africa this way at the cost of very few planes, which led me to wonder if we are doing it right.

Are there any limitations when using planes to attack ground forces? Can you simply keep on rolling until you decide to stop? Even AAA proved ineffective - the only solution looks like stationing fighters with the ground troops for protection.

Some advice please…
