Pretty sure Napalm would cost less.  It's just jellied fuel in a thin shell tank after all.

Bombs have machined cases, with expensive hi-ex compounds in them.  Ditto rockets.

By comparison, Napalm is a cheap, hot date.

Thinking in terms of game balance, it is much more easy to do much more damage to a line of arty with napalm.    Also thinking it should cost more to request a replacement plane and pilot.  What those should be and even if it should be is a bigger question.  

It just seems to me the weapon systems that are more "easy" to do damage with should "cost" more in game currency, but I do think that should be an option for players if they want to go that route.

You have to successfully complete NAMED OPERATIONS to get points to improve the pilots in your squadron, for the guys wondering how the points work.

Expand on that please.  By named operations are you referring to things like the battle of _______ has started.  You see an area with a red circle around it and inside it is red hash marks.  You pick three missions inside that hash mark area and you get points?  If the answer is yes I can tell you with 100% certainty that it DOES NOT work for me, and that extends across several different "named operations"

The overall operation needs to be a success.  Focus your sorties in the area the operation is going on.  If/when the operation is completed successfully (not the individual sorties) you will receive points.  Just completing individual sorties in the area does not give you anything, and if the operation was not successful you get nothing.  

Need any more info, or if I am just rambling incoherently... let me know. 😁

That is helpful, I was thinking after each series of successful sorties/ after each day you would get points.  I will watch for this.

You should also get an message at the end of the last day an operation saying if it was successful or not.

Jumping on this thread to ask: Is there any way to change the whole unit's livery? I know how to modify each individual plane livery, but I can't see how to modify the squadron's default one.

Unfortunately, that's not possible right now.

When a military option is complete, you'll have award points to use on things like this.

In Korea, but also in Great Battles, are secondary objectives. But I never find out what have to do for this 😅

When I accomplish this task it’s always accidentally …

Is there any place to see what it is ? 🤔
