I like to purchase a fighter in I1 and follow up with a carrier in I2 depending on if you have NO. That way the fleet makes a strong and reliable force. With a strong fleet to rely on, the hunt for africa and the Mare nostrum objectives begins.
But thats just me. :? As if I know anything. :wink:
I like the 7 infantry bait thing. If Japan ignores them too long, they will create problems. I once walked them thruogh china and India and they walked all the way back to causcasus even if it was only two men left at the end. Two brave men.
Well of course it depends on the situation. If germany is threating Moscow then you wont build a bomber, that turn. But lets say both Germany and Japan is in safe distance, you will never be disappointed with your Bomber. The Vision with the Russia Bomber Strategy is to gain air supremecy with Russia. 1 bomber every turn is maybe to exaggerate but its something you should always strive for. And believe me, it pays off.
I can’t be the only one executing The Russia bomber strategy?
Its really boring, but effective. The strategy is based on that Germany never will take Russia. If you feel unsure of it try it with fighters instead as they can defend russia in worst case scenarios.
What you do is, you buy one Bomber each round. Fill the rest of ipc with mainly infantry and if it adds up, 1 or 2 tanks. This way your bombers will stack up and become a powerful weapon, ready to strike wherever its necessery. Together with infantry you dont lose that valuable tanks to counterattacks and you still have great attacking power.
And even in the 5th round when you find yourself with 4 bombers, buy another one. Stay consistant. Someone said that attack is the best defence. Was it right or wrong?
The bomber is good but no necessarily broken in my opinion. We have discussed to incease the price maybe to 13-14 ipc. What do you think about that?
What we actually did change was the Tech chart. We made one chart out of two with the following setup:
1. Advanced Artillery
2. Rockets
3. Improved Shipyards
4. Increased factory production
5. Jet Fighters
6. Mechanized infantry
Its clear that Russia dont want Improved shipyards and there is limited benefits with the techs for other nations also but you still want to roll, dont you?
