We had one friend who always counted on the hail marry pass of heavy bombers. The original nova game had the a-bomb rather than heavy bombers. You got it, then you could build 1 and only 1 bomb, then next turn it appears at an IC and when it begins a turn with a bomber it can be delivered like an SBR. But the AA rules in those days called for 1 shot at all planes, not one per…. but it hit on a 1-3, so 50/50. Moreover, the AA bomb attack run had to be a single plane. So you could drop a plane on an enemy fleet and its gone, no defense. Or drop it on Germany, 50/50 chance either Germany shoots it down, then next US they build, transport a turn later, then deliver, or the germany territory has NOTHING, I think even the IC was removed.
