Carpet Bombing

I wrote that there are multiple missions per day, so 10 or so He-111 units can be used to launch several missions/day - I did not mean to imply that each unit was being used more than once.

Actually I am not frustrated at all - only concerned that the term "carpet bomber" is misused in the true semantic sense of the word - and what I was experiencing was not carpet bombing rather CAS or interdiction.

Well - you are implying that I might be concerned that my opponent may be cheating which is not the case. He is an honorable opponent who is using the tools of the game at his disposable in a talented and legitimate manner.

Having played these games for 10 + years I fully understand the strengths and weaknesses of the system, and I was only trying understand this particular quirk.
