@Krieghund:
That’s what destroyers are for. That and hunting subs.
But why buy a DD when your air can eliminate the heavy hitters at roughly the same IPC price.
4 ftrs = 2 dd, 2 ca
And you have a pip adv in 12 to 10.
I’ll sweep up the subs later (with 1 dd and my left over air), once the trns and capital ships are gone.
Edit:
My thought is 8 ipc for a 2/2 fodder unit might be a lot.
In the earlier editions an 8 ipc trn for fodder was worth it b/c transports are always useful.
Here, I’m just not sure if I buy a lot of DDs. Certainly having 1 around is necessary but after that might as well bite the bullet and spend 12 and get the bombardment with a cruiser.
Or just spend 10 on ftrs and 12 on bombers.
