So I've only just opened HOI-4 (1.4) and went immediately to the new air interface. I have to congratulate Padadox (@podcat ) - I LOVE it!!!

It is streamlined, immersive, and takes so much time out of setting up your air war.

One question. . . what is the proper number of aircraft in a wing now? How do the individual planes fight or is it still as an entire wing?

I've also noticed that they have increased the Infantry training time from 90 days to 120 days.

You are one of the first players. You are supposed to tell us that! ;) How many planes DO we need?

I can't get over how incredibly easy it is to control your air forces now. . . just click and go; just like your divisions. :)
Air War.jpg

The yellow circle is the combat range of your aircraft. There is a different one for each type of plane at the airbase.

As you can see the size of the base is also showing so you aren't flipping here and there to see if how many aircraft can fit.

Should they merge your amount of AA guns and the estimated amounts of AA guns on enemy territory to that screen?

I beg your pardon?

so. . . if you shift-click on each airfield you can create a picture of the entire fighter coverage within your area - So COOL!!!

It's only 1937, so I don't know what the new RADAR will do to help yet.

Sadly northern France is still MASSIVE. :(

Should one be able to see AA guns in that same air screen.

sorry, I misunderstood. I haven't seen any AA yet, but the RADAR is Cool!!!

I have not seen any AI troop: shuffling, no musical chairs, no province to province back and forth. So far looking very good!

PS 1/20/1938 only 32 FPS! No wars happening by me. I think that FPS is lower than when I played yesterday.
