Nuclear Bomber
Posted: Thu May 19, 2016 7:23 pm
After an aborted Allies campaign - due to the US Marines release which I played through - I restarted the Allies campaign. For the first time, I am playing the Japan invasion scenario. Purchased a nuclear bomber. I have to admit, I did this just to see what happens -- bombed a Japanese unit, and like the description says, it did damage to surrounding hexes --- LOTS of it!! I think it took out about 6 hexes, including 3 that were occupied by my US troops [I guess it's not meant for close air support?
], but the distressing part was that the bomber itself ended up in with my dead units. 500 resource points for one strike. Is that WAD? I suspect that unit, if deployed, needs to be used for a game-ending strike.
