Bombers and transports are also included, but the strategy of the game boils down to whoever has the most powerful guns. All sides have the equivalent of the big tank, the bigger tank and the truly devastating really really big tank. Another problem is the lack of creativity. This severely limits the replay value once you know one side, you know them all. All three armies are effectively identical, functionally speaking-there is an exact counterpart for every unit.
