Ouch!

Yeah, it would have been nice to get that extra LI but it's better that the Chinese lose that LI, in my opinion.

As Pax said, the increased cruise speed of the M3 over the M2 is nice, but it's a chance I won't take.
Not really nice, but rather M3 matches the Sally (as opposed to ALL other bombers) whereas the M2 matches the cruise speed of ALL other bombers (Val, Kate, Netty, and Helen). Build the M2 ...

Hi guys. Hope you all had a nice holiday. It was nice here for the most part. The mother-in-law and brother-in-law came Wednesday and left this morning. With them here, the kids and their entourages basically moved in, so it was a madhouse. I was able to run turns in the morning before everyone got ...

You could swap some of the Vals for fighters and give them the same target hex as your bombers with the airfield targeted. The fighters will drop their bombs prior to bombing and then engage the enemy fighters.

Apparently you messed up with your approach and should have had Townsville targeted ...
