If I may place my two cents, while the artillery branch in CoW consists both of field guns and howitzers, the way we use them is more like howitzers. I would propose that for RP purposes, artillery takes the place of howitzers while anti-tank represents field guns.

That said I'm not participating so this is just a suggestion.

But yes that’s actually very smart, short range field guns and long range howitzers!

1916 maybe

I like Crayfish’s idea. If that is so we can allow them in 1910! Of course that’s a big if.

I’d see nothing wrong with them doing that. Since planes won’t be too important in this map and infantry will be in high numbers AA wouldn’t be that important anyway!

Wouldn't it give them an advantage against heavy armor? Also, what are the rules for aviation?

no bombers until 1917

Then go ahead get what you want

Ints at the start. Even Italy used planes with pilots that dropped grenades in 1911.

yes I specifically said bombers

Should we use strategic bombers like Zeppelins?

And what about naval bombers?

We can use flyimg bombs as zepelins

Naval bombers in 1917

strats have to wait until 1917

Flying bombs? Those are just missiles, they didn’t exist at the time and are a one time use think. I don’t think strategic bombers ever existed at this time, but Zeppelins did, and they’d be a good replacement.

ok

Isn’t 1917 too late? We’re not gonna have enough of them to actually make a unit useful if you gain it at that time.

Well that is 9 days

bombers were not decisive weapons in world war 1

Sure, but they should at least be able to damage ships? I feel like they won’t have any effect at all…
