Seriously, Dutch airstrikes add nothing good to the game, and here they are making them more effective. Genius balancing.

To be fair though, the Alaska got that megahit early in the game. I am 100% certain that the WG balansing department has made sure that such a thing can't happen at any other point in time during a game. I mean, surely it is impossible to think that a Dutch cruiser could perform the "magical" saturation bombing airdrop on a half-health ship later in the game. Kinda reminds me of Trinity from the Matrix: Dodge this!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
