In retrospective the F111 squadron was a poisoned gift. Not only did it count towards casualties but also the campaign could have ended a turn earlier if you had picked the 2 extra victory points!

And in reality F-111 did majority of the job in Iraq. When A-10 were wrecked, despite entering late in the war, not achieving really that much. Beside stealing the spotlight. Even if they were known as friendly killers.

Can confirm that A-10's are incredibly loud in the real world too. It's like a banshee screaming in your ear
@alamp76407 ай бұрын
Going to be honest, working on the flight line A-10s are some of the quietest jets I've worked around. I can comfortably be super close to A-10s without hearing protection and many have taxied right by me and I felt fine. However, when Im at the end of the runway and the A-10s spool up their engine the high pitch scream sounds straight from hell.

When I was in Korea for a DET some air force folk where there with A10s. They let us see them up close and the cockpit, I never realized how massive those planes are. Such an amazing Aircraft.

Interesting, Around turn 9 I had a very similiar strategic placement as you did and used the recce unit to cut right all across the enemy occupied territory. The enemy got immidiatly cut of and started a full scale retreat with all units

After some back of the napkin calculations of NATO and PACT manpower casualties (using WarYes and Wikipedia), it appears that PACT lost around 18,582 men and NATO lost about 2,076. That's a casualty ratio of about 9-1. This calculation obviously doesn't take into account partially destroyed/damaged squads or vehicles. I also had to guesstimate how large the vehicle-based command squads were, but I tired to use PACT and NATO OOB's to inform that guess when able. It'd be really cool if WARNO included a built-in manpower casualty counter like Regiments does. *ALSO* it appears that the casualty counter is a bit bugged - you only lost one F-111, the game seems to think you lost the whole squadron (because you only had it for one turn).

You are aware that in reality A-10 would be never used if AA is present in the area? It is actually F-16 who has way higher survival chance there, as they are used for SEED operations. But there is no point in taking unnecessary risk, what is not the same as ability.

@@tihomirrasperic They also achieved least during the war, beside being memorable from one attack (two if we include attack on French). A-10 suffered most casualties from all aircraft's, despite entering conflict quite late. But yes, on ground level soldiers probably fear A-10 most, as those deleted by F-111, who did most of the job, really couldn't feel anything after that. Poor accuracy of A-10 give chance to spread the word.

It seems like the AI is too willing to just hang units out to dry when outnumbered, instead of reinforcing them and making things interesting. At minimum bringing in more units would allow the AI to potentially bleed the player of more assets, something it should take into consideration when it already heavily outnumbers the player as PACT. It also just fundamentally makes for more enjoyable battles instead of simply rolling over an badly outnumbered unit simply because the AI couldn't be bothered to fight. That battle with 3/MSR 23 should have been a bigger and grander battle since the unit could easily have been reinforced....
