I get what you are saying as far as unit count for G4 or G5 timing.

However the bomber can help break Russian lines on G3 sometimes before the reinforcements from the East arrive.

Also can cause Allies to build more escorts or fewer transports and delay landings a round which means fewer units used for trades so more can move east.

There is a gap in follow up reinforcements that occurs as a result of this as you point out, but this is the trade off for higher speed.

The bomber threatens sea zones 3 and 13 that could otherwise be safe moves for Allies without it. It also helps threaten Egypt or Trans Jordan attack without needing to have fighters in range of those territories which puts them out of position in other areas if they are.

Or let’s say Russia wants to attack the Ukraine stack on Round 2. They are looking at 16% chance to capture. 21% with sacrificing fighters.

But if Germany does not drop the extra infantry and AA gun via Med transport then its odds are 43%

I will let you think about if there is a better course of action here.

8 infantry build round one with Russia? 4 infantry 3 Artillery? UK does not drop fleet and sends fighters? US sends its fighters to West Russia?

These things could reduce Germanys odds on West Russia enough perhaps that Germany does not attack, but I do not think they can be reduced enough for Russia to capture Karelia without giving too strong of odds on West Russia.

The 3 tank build is a contingency against Russia Karelia stack somewhat.

I have seen players stack Karelia and Belarus thus blocking the tanks in Ukraine from counter attack, but 7 tanks from Poland and Berlin makes such a move risky as well, although Germany will lose higher TUV in this battle due to not much infantry shield. Usually 2 infantry from Finland and one from Baltic is all that is available for that counter, and maybe this is the way for Russia.

But such a move then opens up G2 Caucus stack with Japans fighters landing on.

I’ve already got a pretty good idea on how I want to approach the issue of potential cheating in similar games. But you’ve got a Master in Statistics, right? I’d imagine you have some ideas too, if you’d like to share?

@Gunner77 There may be some bugs, but that is how it should and usually does work.

@TheDude-0 Thanks for excellent reply. Noted and agreed on all points.
