Just as a game observation- I have found that strat bombing is pretty difficult to pull off as is - just saying... The heavy saving throws now make it an option economically ...

Is this inherent AA value for strategic bombing only?

Think of it as landing craft allow a front line unit paired with it to be on the front line for the first round of battle. All other units (front line and support) not paired with a landing craft that are dropped off via transport (regardless of what sea zone) are considered reserve on the first turn.

Correct - once you retreat air - no participation in mech phase

Sounds like a nail-biter. Taking Rome is big. Paris can be usually cut out of supply if time permits. Russia can be tricky - need to push forward with enough force so you don't deplete yourself of critical mechanized units...I've seen their offensives stall as all of their armor gets destroyed without being replaced fast enough.

Same with us - you can also find them at craft stores - we also use cut out bits of bubble wrap for planes.

I think starting he Soviets with 1 fighter in the "1" build box would be fun and realistic

I like the Italian change. Extra units for US is good. On the fence with US lend lease increase.

Yes - bombing subs in port is like bombing any other naval unit. HK values are not used to bomb ships in port.
