How much Bomber range would I need to bomb the NE US from the Azores. ANyone tried that?

Any good remote bombing strategies of the US without a proper invasion?

It looks like a range of 6 to me.
0 to leave the island
2x2 for each double sea-sea border.
2 for the double sea-land border
but go ahead and test it.

I need to find a better way to test stuff. i.e. get the map just the way i want it--same with tech then try it.
Is there like a WAW scenario modifying utility or do people just mess around with the files

When I want to test something I just set up a game where I control all 5 nations. Then it usually only takes a short while to setup the test case I want. So, I dont even usually bother messing with the files except in very special cases.

yeah that can take some doing tho.
It amazes me when you look at say the HOI community they have so many more tools and mods etc. And to me this is such a better game. It may be that I do multiplayer here so its more fun for me and I didnt really have that for HoI. But by comparison this game seems to have fewer users over all which i hope changes.

btw. the bomber looks like 6 to me too. I think it's the same from greenland altho id don't know how travel over that ice sheet works. I have another spot I am considering launching an air bomb attack from but my opponent reads this so I can't write it here:)
