OP fire question - Dragoon - 01-11-2007 Hello, Does anyone know if an "AA" unit will fire at an aircraft if the OP fire is set to never on all selections? or is the aircraft covered under one of the selections of hard,soft or other? Thanks Dragoon RE: OP fire question - Von Earlmann - 01-11-2007 If you set it to never on all it will not fire at anything including aircraft...can't remember which target type aircraft are.....probably hard? RE: OP fire question - John Given - 01-11-2007 I would think some aircraft, like IL-2 Sturmaviks, are hard targets, while most others are soft targets. I always leave my AAA units on max range for both target types - this means I have to keep my AAA well hidden, but nearby in order for it to be effective. Not always an easy task. RE: OP fire test - Dragoon - 01-11-2007 Hello, Being laid up and off work I have lots of time ..so I did a lil test. Set up 6 German AA units and 6 panzers...set the AA units OP fire the following way. unit 1 - only to shoot at hard targets units2 - only to shoot at soft targets unit3 - only to shoot at other targets units 4 to 5 OP settings to never for all targets. Then I sent in waves of spitfires Turned out as long as the AA units had enough action points they all fired at the aircraft regardless of their OP settings Dragoon RE: OP fire question - Digger - 01-11-2007 Well there you go the definative answer and YES you do have too much time on your hands Matt ~Digger
