So if the Germans had more tanks, then more points available to the Russians?
Do GV deaths from aircraft count?
GV deaths from aircraft did count towards the overall kill numbers for each EA, as stated in some of the earlier discussion regarding scoring. So, as in the case of two of the EA's from Frame 3, Russian close air support actually tipped the balance in favor of the Russians, whereas the Germans would have won them had it merely been the GV's. I'd have to look it up again to be precise, but I think roughly 20-30 German GV's were killed by IL-2's vs. 3-4 Russian GV's killed by FW-190F8's for the entire frame. During Frame 2, the Russian CIC decided to use Yak-9T's almost exclusively, and therefore, Russian air-to-ground kills were practically non-existent akin to what the German's had in Frame 3.
Potentially, more tanks in the EA means more kills. But, there's also the consideration given to a side that is outnumbered in an EA. Should they prove more effective than the larger force, they win. If both sides swap 1-for-1, then its a tie. If the larger numbered force overwhelms the other side, losing fewer vehicles to the smaller force, the large force wins.
