How to give away captured equip. without stop air init.?

Post by swedewolf »

Im Playing as Germany.
I got some air units and a tank when capturing Poland. I do controll the ground units so giving the tank away gave me no problem. But as I actually trus the ai to protect my air I have high initiative there. I selected all polish air and put them in reserve, gave them to Bulgaria but before they had chance to replay my aircommanders (ai) decided to base all polish air again. Im guessing that to remove my air initiative for the days it take to do this give away but to leave my air space undefended is not very smart, How to to this without such a method? A sudgestion thou, why not just give away the units still in reserv as I guess the trade is cancelled as soon as one is removed from reserv. My guess thou.

Also on another matter:
I got my first partizan in this session and was sending my puma recon but it needed some help, so I launched a stuka sortie manually from a near airbase. Mind you that during the Poland campaign I let the AI do the sorties. The Stuka did one strike and stoped. How to tell the Stuka to support the Puma? Escort maybee?

Just tried to escort my anti partisan Pumas with Stukas. Not helping in the offensive anyway. Guessing it will only work as defense against enemy air not against any ground attack on the Puma either.

If you use the patrol order they will keep bombing units in the hex.

Sometimes, air will not attack units in urban areas, esp. guerrillas/partisans. I'm not sure why. I know that strategic bombing aircraft will not.

Yup, after I conqured UK the channel island rebelled and no bombing or battleship bombardment made a any dent on them, so I let them be. Strongest fortress in europe hehe
