    Quote from GreatbigHippo: “Quote from Quasi-duck: “Quote from GreatbigHippo: “It's a hypothetical war situation. ” War was actually never mentioned. Besides, it could be a border skirmish. ” Border Skirmishes aren't fair. Armed Conflicts aren't fair. Fights aren't fair. Nothing is fair. Happy? ” By your logic(unfair comparison) quality beats quantity because nukes beat militia(quality gap too big) ......... but also because one million spearman beat a machine gun ( quantity gap too big), quantit…

    Quote from GreatbigHippo: “Quote from GeneralPhara: “I think it is difficult if not impossible To give a straight on answer to this question , there are too many variables. Most important that i can think of is quality gap, another important one is how the quality gap is actually utilized in that specific case If using a specific amount of resources and time, without going deep into actual calculations, can get you either 1 Heavy tank or 3 light tanks , then a scenario where quantity could beat …

    thats why i said there is very little you can do , it only takes the player a few seconds to switch his bombers to another location after your AA has being travelling for hours and is few minutes away from the airbase Also my main inquiry is not how to beat this bug , it is why this bug exists and is considered normal.

    Quote from Phoenix King: “Quote from GeneralPhara: “Tanks should be effective against refueling and grounded planes, but unfortunately the latter is not possible per game mechanics, because planes are considered to be flying 24/7 in airstrip with no attack/patrol order Infantry and all ground units have very low to no offensive value against planes, and so attacking planes in an airstripe with them is suicidal, once again because the game considers the plane to be flying all the time.

    Quote from Aurave: “I think its obvious why planes not in a convoy or refueling would be considered aloft...this is a game where people have to log off for many hours at a time. It's so that you can't just pick off an entire air force just because someone had to take a shower. From the "realistic" viewpoint, what, are planes not going to scramble when an enemy is incoming? That's like complaining that Anti-tank weapons should only function if the opposing player is online when you attack them. O…

    Quote from Phoenix King: “Quote from Butter Ball Bill: “Well, I will edit mine but he is teaching beginners to exploit a bug. ” It's not a bug. Unless refueling or in a convoy, planes are considered aloft and will react as such. ” Lol? the mods dont even know that there is that sick bug By your justification , tanks can never destroy planes grounded on an airbase, since they are considered 'aloft' 24/7 when in an airbase, and this is basically encouraging people to ONLY place bombers in an airfi…

    Yes they would be more expensive than tanks and they should be , since tanks cannot jump behind enemy lines and cause havoc As you said , you might have built 5 tanks while I have built 4 and a para , but your tanks took hours to win the frontline fight and gain a province or two whereas the my para was dropped behind your lines in a matter of minutes and gained nice provinces that are very possibly empty and defenceless( blame yourself for that not the para ;). TLDR : Tanks have their role, par…
