Well they would be counters for each nation in a cup that you draw randomly. say 1 inch wooden chits with a decal on it. Icons of say a tank or Battleship if the commander effects those. If you draw a chit and don’t own that piece, you just lost that advantage that turn. The next turn you draw another chit. The used chits stay out of the jar, so the design features will balance in total for both Axis and Allies…or not. Depends on the game played…

G40.2 SBR HR
Bomber A1 Damage: 1D6+2Fighter A1 First Strike D1 First Strike
@Baron:
I’m looking for a balance but more historical way of doing G40 SBR.
- The first thing I got in mind was to simply give all Fgs a preemptive first strike A/D @1.
All Tactical and Strategical bomber keep a regular A1.
Would it be still balance and worth the try?
-
Another way was to give @1 first strike only to defending interceptors.
-
And a third option was to allow defending interceptors another defense roll @1 in a second combat cycle of air-to-air.
To get any conclusion about them, I must first make some stats table.

Combined arms: 1 Fighter gives First Strike to all attacking Bombers@Baron:
@Baron:
In a Strategic Bombing Raid, before all the incoming StB submit to AA fire @1, there is the possibility to get intercepted.
The escorting rules in a Strategic Bombing Raid give all the attacking planes a same value:
Each Strategic Bomber attack with a preemptive first strike @1,
and same for
Each Escorting Fighter attack with a preemptive first strike @1,while the defending interceptors have a better defensive roll but a regular one:
Intercepting Fighter defend with a regular @2.
Compared to the Global 1940, SBR rules in which all planes (StB, TcB, Fg) roll once a regular @1.
I find too much uniformity between all aircrafts compared to historical accuracy.
Compared to the other Interception rules, I prefer by far the 1942.2, which I found more historically based and I rationalize this rule that way:
The preemptive first strike for raiders can really be seen as a surprise situation.
Sometimes, defenders are caught off-guard on the airfield but once the interceptors are in the air, they get the advantage:
-
they are flying over a known homeland territory,
-
pilots have spent less time in the air, are more focussed and less tired,
-
planes have plenty of fuel and less restricted on combat maneuver than attacking escorts fighters,
-
and defenders can stay longer in the area to patrol against slower or lost attacking planes,
all this can be exemplify by the UK’s pilots experience known via the air Battle of Britain in 1940-41.
Why were the Germans defeated ?
1. The Germans fought too far away from their bases so that refuelling and rearming were impossible. The German fighters had a very limited time which they could spend over Britain before their fuel got too low.
2. British fighters could land, refuel and rearm and be in the air again very quickly.
3. The change of targets was crucial. It is now believed that Fighter Command was perhaps only 24 hours away from defeat when the attack on the cities occurred. The breathing space this gave Fighter Command was crucial.
4. The Hurricane and Spitfire (above) were exceptional planes - capable of taking on the might of the Luftwaffe.

In game terms and statistics, defending fighter (D@2) are also better than StB (A@1 First Strike) which is not the case in G40 SBR and interception rules, where all is the same.
But…
Giving a better effectiveness to defender with @2 may have a price.That even giving to both, Fgs and StBs, first strike @1 to counter-weight the better effectiveness of defender is not sufficient.
In SBR in general, the defender have the choice to intercept or not. And will forfeit it if he saw an overwhelming attacking fleet.
On the other part, many times, the simple presence of 1 or 2 Fgs on IC is enough to rebuke the SBR strategy.
Indeed, the SBR in G42.2 is far more dangerous (than G40) for each StB than 1/6 odds of being destroyed as was a regular classic IC AA gun.
So instead of promoting it, interceptor defending @2 increase the risk, on 1:1 basis, to 2/6 + 1/6= around 44% (12+4=16/36) minus around 4% (preemptive strike reduction) near 40% of being destroyed.

@Baron:
The Triple A 1942.2 SBR rule is each plane get Att or Def @1 and StB get 1D6 damage.
However, the math also shows that it is not better to bring along Fg as escort than throwing only StBs.
Almost the same odds: 0.825 IPC/ SBR run (with 1 StB 1 Fg) vs 0.861 IPC/ SBR run (with 2 StBs).The only difference is with 2 Bombers there is much risk (of loosing more IPCs) but also much reward (more damage against the defender).
From this, my analysis will be that there is no need to escort 2 bombers or more with Fighters as long as you get a 1:1 ratio against defending interceptors. Better to put your Fgs on other missions.
Below there is the maths.
Triple A SBR 1942.2: 2 StBs A1 doing SBR against 2 intercepting Fgs D1
Sum: +8.195 - 7.334 = + 0.861 IPCs damage/SBR run
I can also add that it is even more the case with G40 SBR, no need to throw a Fg on an escort mission if you have at least 2 StBs and a 1:1 ratio against defending interceptors.
According to the maths of G40 OOB SBR rules, the odds to inflict damage to the defender are clearly increasing keeping 1:1 ratio, from 1 StB, 1 StB+1Fg and, finally 2 StBs.
The odds of making more damage to defender are even better than a single bomber against an undefended Industrial Complex ! ( +2.583 vs + 3.639 IPCs damage/SBR run)

So the only case for advocating Fg escort is within OOB SBR rules from 1942.2, the odds are less worse for the attacker if it keeps pairing 1 StB with 1 Fg.
Playing 1942.2 online with Triple A SBR rules however, it is a different story. As in G40, 2 StBs has almost the same odds of doing damage as a single StB raid against an undefended IC.
(.861 vs .917 IPC/SBR run)So, based on these comparative stats, we can say that the actual OOB 1942.2 SBR rules is more historical than the 2 others, since the game mechanics give less risks for bombers when paired to Fg but it is at the expense of making SBR strategies much less appealing for attacker, and for Allies in particular.
Here is my little twist to improve the SBR balance while keeping an historical feel which can provide incentive for escorting bombers with Fighters.
StBs are making regular A1 in air-to-air (instead of preemptive first strike roll @1 per 1942.2 OOB SBR rules) but their damage is increase to 1D6+2 (as in G40 OOB).
Each intercepting Fg still keep regular D2.
Each escorting Fg also keeps preemptive first strike A1 but also gives a combined arms effect to all escorted bombers, which get A1 preemptive roll.
It only needs 1 Fg unit amongst the attacker SBR fleet to give all bombers their preemptive strike A1.
In-built AAA from IC rolls, as OOB, 1@1 against each Bomber.Optionnal limitation rule : in air-to-air combat, bombers cannot get more rolls than the numbers of defending Fgs interceptors.
(Ex: 3 StBs+1 Fg vs 2 Fgs. Only 2 StBs can roll a preemptive strike A1 in addition to the Fg escort first strike roll A1.)-
By keeping the A1 vs D2 dynamics of 1942.2 OOB SBR, it keeps the main historical feels of air-to-air battle. And gives defending fighters an advantage over attacking planes.
-
By increasing damage to IC by +2, it will provides an incentive for defender to intercept bombers instead of letting them just go through IC’s AAA unopposed.
It will also give better positive odds of making more damage to defender than suffering it compared to the actual 1942.2 OOB SBR. -
By lowering the bomber air-to-air attack roll to regular A1, it will make bombers only SBR much riskier for attacker but still providing a big reward against IC with the +2 damage bonus. This HR (2 StBs A1 regular against 2 intercepting Fgs D2 +9.445 - 10.667 = - 1.222 IPCs damage/SBR) compared to 1942.2 OOB SBR (2 StBs A1 first strike doing SBR against 2 Fgs D2 +7.547 - 9.556 = - 2.009 IPCs damage/SBR) gives better odds and increase damage to IC.
-
The combined arms bonus of Fg for StB will also makes a good and historical incentive to bring at least 1 Fg escort to increase their odds of survival in air-to-air combat against interceptors.
Compared to Triple A and G40 mechanics in which 2 Bombers are always better than 1 Bomber and 1 Fighter to increase odds of making damage over suffering damage.With this HR, the break even point will be 1 StB & 1 Fg (2A@1 first strike) doing SBR against 2 Fgs (2D@2) Sum: + 7.554 - 7.564 = - 0.01 IPC damage/SBR.
While in G40 (+ 2.445 IPCs damage/SBR) and Triple A (+ 0.825 IPC damage/SBR) this same situation the odds are still unhistorically better for the attacker!!!???
And, to the contrary in 1942.2 OOB SBR, from the attacker POV, it is really not worthing the risk (+ 6.018 - 7.555 = - 1.537 IPCs damage/SBR).
Here is some maths evaluation to compare with other actual rules (provided in the above quote) :

@Baron:
So, from my last post, I can provide a simple fix to the issue of SBR being too much OP.
Apply the OOB 1942.2 escort and intercept rules while keeping the damage value of Strat Bombers and Tac Bombers.
Gives to all Fighters / Strat Bombers / Tac Bombers
Attack @1 First Strike.
Keep damage as G40 OOB: 1D6+2 for StB and 1D6 for TcB.
Fighter Defend @2.Here is a discussion on the variant I showed in the last post.

http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=34118.msg1311386#msg1311386Each escorting Fighter have preemptive first strike A1 but also gives a combined arms effect to all escorted bombers, which get A1 preemptive roll.
It only needs 1 Fighter unit amongst the attacker SBR fleet to give all bombers their preemptive strike A1.
When all by themselves, bombers only get a regular attack @1.That’s the small variants compared to OOB 1942.2 SBR rules, giving all StBs A1 First Strike.

G40.2 SBR HR
Bomber A1 Damage: 2D6
Fighter A1 D2
@Baron:
Interesting thread.
I recall that when Global was being playtested, it was put to LH that even though bombers had been reduced to 12$ since aa50, players still strongly preferred 10$ fighters, and nobody was SBRing because it was usually overly risky. So the average SBR damage was raised from 3.5 to 5.5.
This might have been a bit too much. Even though SBR remains dicey and risky, it is now almost always a solid play economically, provided there aren’t better targets or there aren’t too many interceptors. This means that as along as there are unbombed factories, bombers always have a target.
Another factor improving bombers are airbases. Given their badass range, bombers can usually land on an airbase, which just increases their effectiveness all the more.
The main thing Allies can do to protect themselves is combine their defensive stacks–on land, at sea, and at airbases.
You omit to mention also that Fg interceptor was reduced to @1 also.
While StB was given @1 attack also.
And finally, after A&A50,
IC’s AA gun @1 was fired after interception phase and against StBs only,
instead of before the interception phase and against all StBs and escorting Fgs.So many changes were made by Larry H. to entice SBR.
Personally, I believe he shouldn’t have lowered the Fighter interceptors to @1.
@2 could have work better to gives a little advantage to the defender.
I would even agree to give StB 2D6 damage instead of D6+2 (7 IPCs on average instead of 5.5 IPCs), if only agree to raise the Fighter defense to @2.
And this will not be unbalancing on a statistical POV.
If you wish to compare with OOB G40 SBR, you will see that OOB was still more advantageous than giving 2D6 damage against Fg Def@2.Global 1940 SBR HRules SBR damage 1D6+2 / Interceptor Def @2

G40.2 SBR HR
Bomber A1 Damage: 1D6+2Fighter A2 D3
@Baron:
Thanks.
I wouldn’t have think about it without ShadowHAwk commentaries on the special Fighter unit which can directly hit other planes.I basically used the OOB reverse value of Fg (A3 D4) and TcB (A4 D3) and I subtracted 1 Off/Def point.
An incentive was mandatory to risk more valuable planes into battle with grounds and aircrafts.
Also, with a high defense @3 for Fg, I believe it is necessary to have plenty rooms for air Fodder, hence the 3-planes Carrier and cheaper cost.
Also, it is a really big deterrent against SBR, that’s why Fg and TcB gets A2 when doing SBR escort.
I kept a low @1 for bomber, since their main function is to bombard ICs with D6+2 each.
The lower 10 IPCs StB cost can somehow slightly compensate but not entirely for riskier SBR raid.For 6 StB you pay 60 IPCs instead of 72 IPCs.
On average, you lost 1/6 StB and make 5/6 D6+2 damage (5.5 IPCs).
5.5 x 5 = 27.5 IPCs minus 12 IPCs = + 15.5 IPCs net damage for 72 IPCs investment: 21.5% return on investment after 6 SBRs,
5.5 x 5 = 27.5 IPCs minus 10 IPCs = + 17.5 IPCs net damage for 60 IPCs investment. 29.2% return on investment after 6 SBRs.However, this doesn’t consider the higher risk of even a single interceptor @3.
Here is the summary for this very special House Rule :

I found a useful analysis tool to compare average results of various SBR combat values and cost per unit:
Break even point and ratio:
In Strategic Bombing Raid, it is the number of attacking aircraft unit needed compared to intercepting Fg to get even odds on both sides (+0.00 IPC damage/SBR).
Break even ratio is a fraction number over a single intercepting fighter to reach an even odds of winning or loosing IPCs in a single air raid compared to the defender odds of inflicting damage. A ratio above 1 means that you need more than only 1 Bomber against 1 intercepting Fighter to reach a profitable threshold in SBR; while a ratio below 1 means that making a raid with at least 1 bomber against 1 Fighter interceptor is always advantageous for the attacker.Offensive over defensive cost ratio for same combat values : it is a useful measure to evaluate the comparative higher cost of a given attack value over the same defensive value.
For instance, Tank gives a 1 offensive/defensive cost ratio because attack 3 and defense 3 is the same cost at 6 IPCs.
3 air attack over 3 ground defense cost gives Fg A3 C10 vs Tank D3 C6 = 1.667 off/defense IPC ratio.
4 air attack over 4 air defense cost gives StB A4 C12 vs Fg D4 C10 = 1.200 off/def IPC ratio.
2 artillery ground attack over 2 Infantry ground defense gives Art A2 C4 vs Inf D2 C3 = 1.333 off/def cost ratio.
2+2 ground attack over 2+2 ground defense gives Inf+Art A2+A2 C7 vs 2 Inf D2+D2 C6 = 1.167 off/def ratio.
So, this offense/defense cost ratio for the same value goes from 1 to up to 1.667 in regular combat.Here is a very comprehensive table of various SBR values from stronger to weaker SBR from attacker POV:

Here is another interesting idea which should be evaluated:
corriganbp wrote Wed Oct 19, 2011 4:49 pmInterceptors should shoot at 2.
Escorts should shoot at 1, UNLESS they are allowed to break free of the bombers and attack enemy interceptors, and then they shoot at 2, however, this is at the expense of the defender being able to pick the losses, the fighters can no longer absorb the interceptors damage.
That’s the way to do it.

This option should also be explored: *fighter planes in a territory with a major factory and airbase will intercept at 2
@axis-dominion:ok, new house rule in effect for any league game i play going forward:
*fighter planes in a territory with a major factory and airbase will intercept at 2
*escorting fighters also attack at 2 in this particular SBRcyanight is proving without any doubt how inadequate the current intercepting rules are…he’ll go in with like 10 total against say 13 or 15 of my interceptors and still come out ahead, way ahead…we’ll each kill off a plane or two, and then he’ll demolish my economy…how realistic is that?? with overwhelming air defense, how can bombers be so damn effective, and WW2 bombers at that? no way
probably more needs to be done, but i wanna start out with a small change and then go from there.
This other point is more problematic:
*escorting fighters also attack at 2 in this particular SBR -
This other older way of doing SBR should be explored somehow:
I can think about interceptors able to kill directly bombers instead of letting the attacker choosing to lose his escorts or a bomber (not the wise choice).
