     Methinks someone doesn't want to be found  :rolleyes:

     Imagine all the fun we could have flying from blinking base to blinking base
all day long trying to find a fight.  Whoo whoo!  I can hardly wait  :x

Did they have dar bar in the war..NO

Yes.

German radio & radar operators could quite often determine that something huge was going to happen even before Allied bombers even took off by increased radio transmissions from allied bases (bomber radio guys testing & tuning their equipment). On top of that, early warning radars had ranges well beyond 200km.

---------


And while I do not like the increased radar ranges in the MA, it's pretty clear that you are not asking for anything meaningful, you are just whining about the changes.

Taking away sector bars takes away the ability to find the fight.

I think the changes look to be having a very positive impact.

Change happens, when it does, you can either step up your game, or whine.

But thats not considered a Dar Bar. Thats just an assumption. Incresed radio transmission doesn't mean it's a big mission, could be a few pilots just having a conversation. I think i''m right.... Yea, im not a big fan of dar bar, maybe we can just make the DAR RING bigger??

You're not. A few hundred pilots having a "conversation" means a few hundred planes about to get into the air ;)

Sounds like a whine wish.  Someone is upset at the radar range changes because it makes their NOE hord raids more difficult to do and easier to spot.  I guess it's easier for some to try and get things removed from the game instead of adapting and coming up with new tactics.

Which makes it even more reasonable that a sudden surge of hundreds of short transmissions at known bomber command bases in a short time indicates a huge mission brewing up.

You should have told em back in the day that their ELINT does not work ;)
