For now, according to Sensei, the missing bay stands.  We'll see if he changes his mind in future.

Actually, reading the OP, I think it's intentional there's no bay near or in the plains.

Moskurg can bring the fight to the trenches, but they can't sustain an armored push and artillery marching without armor support is ultimately killed by overwhelming machine gun fire, despite the advantages of accurate artillery. Arstotzka holds the fields

Shouldn't the advantage of accurate artillery be on our side. Moksburg utilizes a Howitzer without any recoil compensation. Our state of the art hydropneumatic systems allows us to fire accurate and twice as fast. Add to that that we have more artillery, and with longer range...

Planes spotting doesn't really work when your artillery can only shoot 4-5 km far, and has to be re-aimed after every shot (which makes walking closer to the target impossible).
Arstotzkan artillery is more accurate, but what matters more right now is that Moskurg troops are mobile where Arstotzkan ones are sitting in trenches.

Actually, reading the OP, I think it's intentional there's no bay near or in the plains.
Yeah, I originally meant for there to be four bays but I mistyped and decided to own it. I'll probably say that the jungle doesn't support an airstrip, or not one big enough for bombers, or something.

I can probably answer that for him. It's wet, so you won't get a massive fire. You might be able to defoliate it, but burning probably won't work.

Arstotzkan artillery is more accurate, but what matters more right now is that Moskurg troops are mobile where Arstotzkan ones are sitting in trenches.
Being mobile means giving up their radio however, making their observation planes useless. At that point, the advantage is back to us, thanks to higher fire rate, better accuracy and better range.

And our guns are in fortified positions, while theirs are in open desert. That  of SPAT is worse than good old few meters of dirt.

More propaganda for Arstotzka, from the beginning of 1919 ( I am aware we get no bonuses, but I like writing it. due to it being set at the ebginning, you will notice some things didn't turn out accurate)

Not particularly. And staying static against a mobile foe is asking to be encircled.
