[Gameplay][Ineffective Fighter Cover][New]

[prattaa]

Air, land, & sea units with adjacent fighter support receive no defensive bonus. The only effect of the fighter is to inflict losses on the attacker. Units with fighter cover should take fewer losses.

As discussed in another thread, this is not a bug.

Rather a reasonable change-request...

It's a bug if that's not how it's supposed to work.

This is about fighters giving some degree of damage reduction on defended units. Imagine Panzerkeil for fighters or playing Panzer Corps with initiative values that the escorts do some losses on the attackers first before the rest-strength can do damage on the defended unit. Instead of a complicated initiative mechanic that OOB doesn't offer, the defended units get a slight defense bonus for each adjacent fighter.
