Secondary targets are a double edged sword, IMO, and I try to avoid using them whenever I can. In this case, however, I may give it a go. It can't hurt any more that what happened, can it?
Good thinking TorpX. We'll see how it works - in about two months when I have enough Betties to fly a raid!
I spent a bit of time going through old threads at Matrix last night and this has been an issue since way back when Uncommon Valor first appeared and every iteration of the game has carried this same feature. I read a few - fairly weak, I have to say - excuses for it but nothing that made me think this isn' a massive mistake when it comes to the game mechanics. There must be some reason why it has never been fixed but I can't think of one.
Ideally, I'd simply like to see either the ability to choose a specific task force to attack or set something akin to search arcs where in naval strikes will try to attack anything within that area. In both cases I'm quite happy for the usual FOW, failures and other factors to scrub missions as and when they have to.
Ayway. No turn possibly today. My lap top is packed away and I'm sitting here watching the snow come down. It's going to be a long journey, I think. Still, we're getting a lift in my dad's motor caravan so if we do get stuck on the road because of the weather at least we'll have beds, a toilet, a DVD player and a cooker to keep spirits up!
