i know its an old game...but could you maybe add a continue button? right now you can continue by pressing skip, play, load game and you are there, after game ended, but you have to do that every turn, maybe with a continue button its like if the germans didnt surrender and you can keep going or something?

after playing this...again...something comes to my mind, maybe that thing wasnt even a glitch, yes, its most likely that its a glitch that many planes fell after the planes of one side were completely shot down, but, if you shoot the engine of that plane enough, he would not be able to come back to base, or in the case of the germans, it would fall before the bombs are dropped, oil and water starts dropping and after a while it overheats and stops working, or it just stops working after recieving a few shots, could that be the case?

Gave is quite fun and easy after getting enough people, but the difficulty should not be when you have Intelligence at over 90% cant find location or amount of planes of one attack, then have that attack do over 100% of the city's durability because you incorrectly guess which city they attacked.

Good game. But if I remember my history right it was the spitfires that shot down many more german fighters. In this game I was getting massacred every day by mostly bombers.

You can guess what the intended targets are even if the line is blacked out by counting the number of blacked out characters, thanks to the monotype font where every character is spaced evenly.

The fact that of 26 aircraft only 6 survived shows that the developed does not place much faith in the famed Hawker Hurricane.

The game is pretty easy. Your tactic should include at least 80% intelligence effectiveness, with decent plane production and metal gathering. All damages should be repaired right after it was done and get at least 2 recruiters per turn until you hit 20.
More tips:
- If you have a lot of pilots and not enough metal build Hurricanes and if the other way build Spitfires.
-Never lose more then 40% per raid.Use firefighters to cover the difference.
-Always outnumber your opponent. It will cut down your losses.
-You dont have to defend all of your attacked provinces.
-Avoid attacking to large force. It is better to use firefighters to minimize damages.
-Protect South East first and then other provinces if your numbers can stretch to cover more provinces (depends on attacking forces)
Good luck and have fun!

i feel like a vs mode could work well, where there's a worker phase, and a plane phase, where you send planes to defend attacks or go accross the chanel and hit germany in three or more lanes for planes to intercept each other across the channel. Also, random events are too often and too bad some times (-10% inteligence means you need 10 more spies, and that means 1 more spies dies a day, which means 10% less men per day, assuming you get 10 men a day),and having a numerical advantage doesn't seem to help enough (i had 41 planes to their 20, they still shot down 22 of my planes). Good game, but it's a little too unbalanced, as out of the 4 games i've played, i've won all four, even though the events have screwed my strategy up a few times per game.

Victory ! After 48 days , i ends up with 94 functional planes ( 36 Hurricanes , 58 Spitfires ) 200 guys under my command . Still i will never forget when 20 of my planes intercept 8 Messerschmitt and 8 Dornier ............I lost 18 planes , 15 pilots yet only kill 5 Messerschmitt and 7 Dornier........Meh the kill to loss ratio is way OP in this game

i've learned there are two ways to play. creating a large force and protecting everything, or using spies and protecting the places where planes are approaching. tips for new people: 1. use all your people as recruiters and max them out ASAP. 2. its ok to have more workers than scavengers, as workers use 250kg a day and scavengers and collect 200-400kg a day. 3. only use spitfires, as lack of pilots, as opposed to lack of planes, will be your problem from day 1. 4. events will screw you over, and they appear to be more common in the later days, it's not the end of the world if you lose 5 pilots from an event. 5. try to stay on top of things, if you're repairing things every day, that's ok, but fix things after every day, and switch builders and workers to maximize effectivness. 6. never use firemen, as repairing afterwards is much more efficient and they could die doing their job and you should have enough planes to protect most areas anyway.

I BEAT THE GAME! with 301 german casualties and 164 british casualties. i got 19/24 medals. well a great game! and im still continuing the game. :)

good game, would love it if we saw net metal gain. instead of +4 planes and +4100 metal, it should show +4 planes +100 metal, because its hard to see if you need more/less collectors.

I'm not sure if it's actually built in, but I find that my spitfires perform best if they're just a bit outnumbered. I always get good kill ratios when I start off outnumbered, but if I overwhelmingly outnumber them they will smash my entire force

1 Hurricane beats 2 fighters and 2 bombers, leaving one through. However, 1 spitfire against 1 Messerschmidt and 1 Junker, yet they lose without downing any enemy aircraft... What?

It's a surprisingly good game considering the simplicity of it.
There seems to be something wrong with the math regarding scrap metal though (I seemed to have more scrap metal than expected at all times).
Some suggestions:
* Rebuilding could be harder
* Firemen could be *slightly* more effective, or the cost of recruiting them should be lower

In the sequal, it can be about something like cold war, vietnam war afghanistan etc. where we not only defend but also attack enemy cities and we if we destroyed all their cities. And also different types of forces like paratroopers, tank and ships for coastal areas. It can also include more than 1 war/ country. Hope to see these in sequal. Hit + if you agree
