tech improvements

militia and strategic bombers are too ineffectual,

strat bombers are high alt. and shouldnt take damage from low level inf.

and militia arent worth the resources

Strategic bombers are very good at destroying buildings. However, I never tried to use them because that would cost me too much rare material for researching. Militia is useless, indeed.

I think militia would be used as an actual unit if they didn't require militia research but instead were upgraded from researching infantry techs.

i disagree that strats are 'very good' as far as industry, infrastructure destruction is concerned, they dont take out industries fast enough, the exact use they had in ww2, and should have a different defense stat against inf. at least,

if militia didnt use the same manpower as inf they could be useful

No but Militia could be given a Strength buff when they are in Cities. Like +50% when in cities. Yet I do agree with the Stratgeic Bomber, no way in heck could a rifle send a bullet to 30,000 feet.

Militias should be a purely defensive unit in my opinion. So maybe a +25% defense bonus when placed in friendly territory, and an additional 50% defensive bonus if in a forest or urban region.

Militias are also a bit more poorly equipped than standard armies, especially as far as AT goes, so maybe they can be more vulnerable to tanks and such to keep them balanced.

The strategic bombers are major units to destroy infrastructure and militias are important to defend the provinces. These units are effective.

Recently I've seen militia used amazingly. I my self use them at time in order to pump out quick infantry: normally if I need an instant response and i've got my soviet head on (throw bodies at it, hope for the best.)

Strat bombers need some sort of buff, its far more economical to build rockets. They have no playing pulling power- why build a plane that can be shot down no matter the level, when you can get a lvl 2 rocket which cant be.

This shows that these units are efficient.

meant to say 'buff' not 'nerf' but you all get what I mean

Yeah. By the way, to defend the provinces, you prefer Militia or Infantry?
