Speaking of game balance, Russia is getting mowed over on the ground. Russia is the new France. I can't even scratch the paint on German units. Nowadays, against any player with skill, I hoping The Reds make it to 1944.
Yep agree in WaW at least. I advocated new weather changes and making the bombers not being able to detrench in snow and rain. The devs fixed that but that's still not enough.
Another thing Axis players do is pile all their PZs and Mech troops in Romania, to circumvent the Warsaw/Poland radii that increases Soviet mobilization if too many German units are there. Totally unrealistic.
Some would say 'oh but Romania is far from Moscow'. True, but that Axis PZ juggernaut can clear the Soviets clear to Rostov and Voronezh (and beyond)way before first winter.
Couple that with Axis clear air superiority over the USSR, basically for ever.
The Soviets player cant early research fighters with the small revenue they are getting before Barbarossa, since they need Inf tech and AA ASAP.
Clearly also, the USSR doesn't have enough units at the beginning early war...period.
Also, let's mention the DAK. Axis just decides to make Rommel the Steppe Fox, and take the whole DAK (which is supposed to be a Corps but is actually an Army Group) to the East instead of Libya. Who cares about the Med when you can defeat the Entire Soviet Union easily by 1943.
I know this is off topic a bit but this thread did address the Axis strat bomber menace above. And that is real!
