That’s why under Caspian Sub and tripleA ladder rules you can’t attack an enemy capital with ground troops in your first turn.
Like you mentioned, it turns a wonderful game into a coin flip and spoils the fun.
When you atatck witha bomber its ok. BUT WHEN YOU GET CARPET BOMBED EVERY TURN FOR 3 DICE ITS NOT OK. the US keeps carpetbombing me (germany) from britain every turn. cant build and its useless to try to go for russia because im broke. this worsens if you are playing superfortress national power. it becomes wack.
check the thread about “How to defend against strat bombing raid”…i think it’s in the Axis and Allies forum
you can defend against it
its hard but you can
Try taking the fight to the UK for a couple of turns, to destroy those bombers.
the best way to respond is to reach moscow
