Higher is better.....14500 the 200's lose boost, but still perform quite well and after one turn we are down in their performance zone...read dead. Can't out-run, can't out-turn, and can't out climb until we get them out of boost. First encounter with 200s was in the 20's...so they can climb up there just fine...and they will leave us in the dust in the dive.
I don't want to lose the S3 "fun" just to say we won...sort of like not ever engaging and saying "we never lost a fighter this series"....defeats the purpose of the experience.
Bombers take embedded escort, aka RCAF, and then fighters stay on Defense close to base?
That sounds good to me Dobs, if the DR's haven't closed a base, then the NME fighters leave the area following the Buffs (need 1 more group to cover the buffs), we could reverse and drop bombs unmolested, the climb back to our altitude and join the buffs.
