That invasion was useless!

@JEB:

Finally Germany got the dices on their side! :)

I’m all for balancing.

This invasion is exactly what is happening every turn in my other game.

Bombers cost 12. 1/6 chance of downing it, meaning everytime you bomb you lose 2ipc. You do on average 3.5 ipc in damage, so 3.5-2.0 = 1.5ipc per bombing.

It’s worth it mathematically, but sometimes the reward is not worth the risk. That being said this is like the first bomber I get on Russia so you’re in your money!
