not ideal, but it works. Sure, our soldiers will take a bit more to switch mode... but in this day and age, it is still a good achievement and it should serve them rather well in most situations.

So, what happened to the "low-level bombing" prod order?

didn't have much effect I guess. We are back to mobile war in the desert, their flak coverage is likely lesser and our targets are less densely packed as well. the mountains are at the end of our effective range and they re entrenched inside the mines. the jungle is a jungle and I imagine bombing isn't easy, nor is targeting bombers from the ground.

In addition, less planes due to ore shortage.

Anyway, anyone interested in an attempt at covert ops way beyond enemy lines. We can double the planes range by not requiring them to come back. Should be sufficient to put our forces behind their lines.

Question: Would taping several grenades(and their pins) together to create a single grenade with a larger boom for attacking enemy Stormtroopers be a production order? Or would we need to revise for that?

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

earlier I was thinking they could use their new alloy to design some cheap anti-tank cannons like our MAT-26, to counter our armored superiority. But then I remembered that they don't actually have the resources to get them as cheap as our own, so I guess that wasn't a good idea. I guess they might have gotten improved optics, or a ship to disrupt our cargo ( hard, since they can't afford big things and our ships are armed)

speaking about ships: are we going to offer anything? our autocannon should do a nice work.

Ah yes, offers.

Offer our newly designed gun to the Nazi's, and the autocannon to the Pirates.

they are not pirates. They are misterious buyers. And that is all we should know or guess about them.

and sure, lets offer the guns to nazi. At this point, there still is significant good will toward hitler. He is breaking a treaty, sure, but what he is breaking is an overly oppressive peace treaty. He is merely reaffirming national identity and independence. And he is still better than USSR!
of course, when all the annexation start we want to cut ties.

Submit our new assault rifle to the Nazis and our autocannon to those chums who definitely aren't pirates. Offer our F14 if our assault rifle ties with Moskurg's.

Glory to Arstotzka.

Hrm, what do you guys think about an anti-materiel rifle next turn? There wasn't a need for one before, but with this body armor we'll likely need one now(especially after they managed to decomplexifiy it :P). I propose the following for next turn:

Wouldn't it be more efficient to design some high-power AP rounds for our existing rifles.?

 Or atleast use existing ammo? We have that pile of 20x100mm for the autocannons, just make a bolt-action variant.

 Of course, it all depends on what the horrible foes create.
