Beyond this, there is also the No Tech aspect, or things like whether or not players are using standard dice rules or low luck rules. Anyway, the point being that if you are using a Russian bomber in your games regularly, then chances our you’ll be seeing different results from people who try other balancing options. Its the sort of set up change you really have to force though, because given the option most people would take that same bid amount and instead throw down 4 infantry or 3 art units in separate territories to spread the advantage, or a pair of subs to break a naval battle. In G40 specifically, that option is preferable to me, than an open bid for UK. An Extra Russian fighter in AA50 for example, or a Bomber in G40. In G40, and in other prior A&A games, many people have used additional Russian aircraft as an expedient alternative to the open pre-placement bid. For example, I noticed just now you mentioned the Russian bomber in another thread. And of course results will differ depending on what conditions you typically play with. It comes down to how much of what you read accords with your own experience. I suppose its important to realize that any statements you read here on the boards are largely anecdotal. I’m curious which statements here are differing from what you’ve seen in the league? Do you feel that this NO is playing differently or is more relevant in the league?
