This is the second time that I have been tailing someone and shot another plane that is in the same hex as the target I am tailing. My memory could be failing me, but I thought that you always shot the target that you are tailing, unless another plane gets between your plane and the tailed target.

In the game 662475

My understanding of what is coded is that the game fires at the target with the highest attack number, regardless of tailing. In the event of a tie, it is determined randomly from amongst the highest attack numbers. I'd prefer the tailing be taken into account for this determination, but I also play knowing that it won't be.


Highest attack value is the best way to go, if the computer is deciding which plane to shoot. In this case, neither plane had deflection. I had shot at the previous turn and was tailing a target, (plus, this target was a shot at the tail without deflection). So, I would have definately preferred to have the high value target take the damage.
