i’m with m200.
so i get heavy bombers - so can you.
plus if you get ind tech you may use your ipcs to better value and out inf-me.
i say keep them the way they are. If i’m kicking my opponants ass and he swings the heavy bombers than that makes the game more interesting and forces me to continue to outplay him. If he is winning anyway, then i can’t really complain as “he was winning anyway”. If it was even and he goes for the game breaker - well, that’s my sorrow - i can try the same thing. I’ve been blown out by bad luck on the battlefield far to often to cry “foul” if someone beats the odds on a heavy bomber-tech roll.
good point CC. lol but i only play axis and allies against myself, no one I know around here plays…so when I roll heavy bombers, oooh first exciting, then it’s “aw damnit”. Actually it’s all excitement, because I think it makes the game really interesting. And you should see me kick my own ass, I’m pretty good at it. My brother plays though, and he’ll be moving back here in august.
Damn, cc! Yo’re a doc,huh?
I like the way you put your explanation.
I bet you could sweet talk a breech baby out of the womb!
A doctor in the house…

thanks
but shouldn’t this be in the “general discussion - abortion” forum?
and some of those breech baby’s can come out clean - but only a frank breech, and only if the obs/gyne is a cowboy.
:o :oops: Well! I guess I’ll have to reconsider my vote for you in the “quality posters” forum. :evil:
The thing is, if some gets the Heavy Bomber technology, that country can just lay waste to everyone in sight.
I’ve heard the rule that you limit the use of heavy bombers to two (2) stockpiles per turn, and you pay 10 IPC’s to reload the bombers. What do you guys think?
I like the World at War rules for heavy bombers:
Each Nation cannot have more than two Heavy Bombers. They may be rebuilt if they are destroyed. Heavy bombers attack and bomb using three dice instead of one (except we play – only allowing them to roll two dice instead of three dice).
Heavy Bombers must be replenished after each use. It cost 5 IPC’s to re-arm a Heavy Bomber. Heavy Bombers are replenished at the start of the player’s turn, when the IPC’s are spent, and need not be at a factory.
Heavy Bombers are treated as normal bombers, if the 5 IPC point cost for re-arming is not paid.
Also, if you play the paratrooper rule:
Heavy Bombers may be used to transport two (2) Paratroop Units without having to pay the re-arming cost. However, the Heavy Bomber may only perform one Mission at a time. They cannot be used for a Bombing Mission and on the same Turn be used to transport Paratroopers.

here is a better Idea. The HB Tech is meant to exemplify Atomic Bombs in the game…so why not do it historically? the US couldn’t mass prodce the bomb it tooke time. why not say the owner of HB can HB a target or preform a raid on T1 of when he gets the tech, but then he has to wait every other turn to attack wih his HB?
gg, I disagree that hbmrs represent A-bombs. Tech developed from bombers to heavies to A-bombs(my opinion.)
True but that would mean that both USA and Britian should start with heavy Bombers… The german bombers were puny
That’s when you use German Nuclear Subs. :wink:
Historically Inaccurate
