the intention wasn’t for them to be bought frequently, as in the real war, the carrier became the dominant capital ship and for good reason. however, the cruiser and battleship have some unique properties that make them worthwhile in certain situations but not at the official cost. they’re pretty cool units and deserve to be bought a few times per game vs a few times per never lol

@BombsAway

Ok…it’s been a month and haven’t heard anything. Any chance to keep going…or is it time to call it?

It will take a few turns to get Germany into the Middle East and then to Egypt. Japan will keep harassing until the end.

@pacifiersboard Ok. all good. So not sure if you want to continue this one, but if so, I’m back in the saddle so to speak, and ready to go.
