This touches on an unresolved discussion in the game - cadres and their uses. This has been argued at length on other threads.

yep...hence the devil horns 'n popcorn by Tree. Doesn't matter. It ain't changing.

This is slightly offtopic but is there a preferred version to use for multiplayer so that games that youve started with a freind dont get obsoleted and unplayable after patching?

I use allied subs to transport some troops to intel the islands I going to retake, I've been burned to many times with the "there's only one eng unit on the island" intel crap.[8|] Subs don't have to worry about CD guns or air strikes for the most either. The Japanese have the subs with recon aircraft and don't have that issue.

I also use about half of the allied subs from Manila to run supply missions to help keep the Philippines going a little longer.

As for the intel - you really need a dedicated recon-type unit over time to get good intel... using bombers and patrol planes can get you wildly inaccurate information.
