Strategic Bombing on Turin. I do not know where they are coming from. Axis versus AI. England?
And the date is January 1941. Such a big range for bombers already?

Don't know about the game, but in real life the cities of northern Italy were bombed from the UK in 1940. The Stirlings had to fly *through* the Alps because of their low ceilings, and they may have violated Switzerland's neutrality. The RAF joked that the anti-aircraft guns must have been manned by Germans because they kept firing even after the first bombs were dropped.
