Title: some in-game questions for HiTech
Post by: lunaticfringe on July 04, 2021, 10:02:18 PM: 1st-a Cruiser in a CV fleet has 3 turrets 9 8in. guns but what size is the gun in a shore battery?

2nd- does attacking a country's HQ still effect the radar down-like it used too in AH2 if so-how much ord will it take to knock it out, and for how long.

in the last 2 or 3 years of AH2 it took 100,000.00 pounds of bombs to knock the HQ out-but the targeted country's HQ was only down for 5 minutes making it not worth the trouble,

thank you serious answers only

2) You can look it up in the arena settings: When in arena, bring up your clipboard: Arena Setup -> Objects -> Object Settings. Look for the HQ. First number is downtime in minutes, second the required bomb load expressed in number of 1000lb bombs.
Should still be 5 minutes and 15.63 x 1000lb bombs, but better check that for yourself.

3) No, I'm not Hitech, but I still dared to answer :old:

Post by: 1ijac on July 05, 2021, 08:29:30 PM: I believe the City strat still supplies HQ...Sooo, pounding on the city strat first will extend the downtime on the HQ when it goes down. I'm assuming it still works because some bastages took down our country's HQ and dar a month or so ago. :furious Anyways, as lueshe has stated..it all can be found in the arena settings.

Cheers, One-eye
