btw i’d like to edit that russian sub to 97, i can do it during US turn

I love strat bombing, with the +2 bonus against ICs I have trouble restraining myself 😆

I find there are quite the mixed feelings on it. Several of my regular opponents take them as casualties before fighter/tacs in the opening rounds since they only attack at 3 in PtV. However I think it is more important to bomb Russia hard, since they are usually not needing much help from the other Allies to hold Moscow. On a tangent, I usually don’t go G1 and think I might be in a better overall Axis position (not that I feel I am doing poorly) if I had gone for a later attack on Russia. Getting a little German help in the Med makes such a huge difference for Italy.
