When you are going to use both to attack a unit is one recommrnded to use first? In PanzerCorps it was recommended to use air first.
Thanks.

If the unit is entrenched, attack with whichever does more damage to entrenchment first. Otherwise it doesn’t really matter.

Actually it really matters if you have tactical bombers with “precision strike” trait or whatever battle navy.
Normally, your ranged units cause less damage if target has less strength point except two units i said.
==> strategy bombers/arty always go first

The way I look at it is, the aircraft will reduce the combat strength while artillery lowers the efficiency.

Therefore I use Arty to soften up up units I wish to attack and Tac Bombers to reduce the strength number of units behind the front line such as enemy arty.

They can of course be used the other way round.

Cheers

Precision strike, and yes that's helpful for cleanup.

Yep, thanks, this one would have been my own answer, too. Short, but contains about everything; if read correctly. 8)
