Balancing Planes

There is some serious balancing necessary for tac bombers and strat bombers.Tac bombers are far too strong. A stack of 5 interceptors and 5 bombers can destroy an infantry in a mere two bombing runs. On the other hand, strat bombers are far too weak, doing practically no damage to troops, doing not too much to buildings which is the intended purpose and worse yet, creating a smaller range and slower troops. As well as requiring level 3 air bases and a lot of stuff. What is the point of bombing out buildings if it is not forts or air base. An experienced player would put plenty of AA in these anyways, so in other words strat bombers are useless.

thank you for reading my rant on the uselessness of strat bombers, and a slight rant on why tac bombers are op :D

Tac Bombers are OP?

Eee Gads, never heard that before!

How can so many players play so many games and never notice the extreme value of tac bombers.

Will have to readapt my entire play style after only five years.

Strats are for targeting urban areas. Tac are for killing troops. Both are effective. Both rule the battlefield, which is logical considering air power won WW2 and pretty much every engagement since.

Are strats really that good at targeting urban for their price? I honestly think that strats need to be made a LOT cheaper or at least be able to be produced in lvl 2 air bases

I say: The Strategic Bomber is one of the most dangerous and versatile weapon in the game, but as with any good tool, knowing how to use it properly is important.

All tools are hammers, except for screwdrivers which are also chisels. ;)

This is changed in the 1.5 events. While the 1.5 event features that are undergoing testing are not going to become mainstream in the immediate future, I don't expect any balancing changes to existing units in the near future either.
