Blitzkrieg Tactics required the concentration of offensive weapons such as tanks and aircraft. These forces would drive a breach in enemy defenses, permitting armored tank divisions to penetrate rapidly causing shock and disorganization among the enemy defenses.

Players accomplish victories and stomach defeats as individuals and groups based on their fighting skills. Nevertheless the strategic success of a player's country will be based on adequately re-supplying and redeploying  forces.

 Military command staff categorizes bombing targets in two ways: strategic and tactical bombing.  Strategic bombing is bombing of enemy targets such as industrial plants, port facilities, and railway bridges. Its effect may not be felt immediately. Tactical bombing is bombing that is directed against enemy military forces and other military targets and enemy strongholds. It has a direct and immediate effect on the battlefront.

The United States and Great Britain joined forces to create the Combined Bomber Offensive. The two nations had different bombing approaches. The British preferred to fly under the protection of night. The USAAF chose to fly during the day for precision bombing with the heavy armament of the B-17. 

The Norden bombsight allowed a bomb to be dropped at exactly the right time needed to hit the target. The bombardier would provide the computer with the air speed, wind speed and direction, altitude, and angle of drift. With this information, the bombsight would calculate the trajectory of the bomb.  Theoretically the use of the bombsight could place a bomb inside a 100-foot circle from four miles high

This manual is intended to improve the players chances of reaching and hitting the target.
