Nice mission, but the lack of USAF or any air defense over US land is indeed a little weird.
At some point, I realised that I had left my TU16s loitering over Florida, I was like "Maybe I should move everyone to east side of the enemy fleet. Don't feel like I should be able to be here".

Okay, the AI doesn't know how to use carriers or bases - the game still feels very unpolished.
However, you can directly create Air Force or Navy airplane units.

@Thorn: If you deploy something 10x the size the game will run worse than the average Powerpoint presentation. I can't make something on that scale.

The AI doesn't know how to use carriers, so I didn't add one of the US since it wouldn't use it anyway. The same goes for airbases.

The scenario is set in the 60s, which is why you're still seeing modernized Gearings.

The scenario is very strange in terms of the units representing the forces of each side.
I understand the goal is to make the scenario at least theoretically winnable for the playable side, but in that case, there should at least be some explanation as to why the enemy has forces about 10 times smaller than what they would realistically deploy in such an operation.

The Soviet side is somewhat understandable—we fight with whatever they managed to transport across the ocean.
But the U.S.? It feels like the attack was planned by generals who suddenly lost their sense. No reconnaissance or air cover? (Oh right, there was one Orion.) Not even one aircraft carrier allocated for such an operation? Okay, let's assume the carriers are far away. But Florida is right there, with all its airbases and the U.S. Air Force!

Instead, they attack Cuba with four Gearing-class destroyers from World War II. Facepalm.

Someone else said it, there's something wrong with the TU16s won't fire their missiles for whatever reason. You can literally beat the whole mission with them, except not.

@IRanOutOfMilk yeah it happened where that little comma shaped inlet is on the otherside of the island. Just watched the Operations Room video on it

Tons of fun! I love getting a chance to see that janky-ass Echo class launch!

Wasn't the Bay of Pigs on the other side of Cuba?

great mission. had a lot of fun. the Echo II did it's job even if the rest of the Soviet fleet got pummeled. Mission accomplished.

o avião não lança o míssil

oh wow thank you

@LeDzik - game problem. I had the same thing happen in my playthrough

Is it scenario problem or game problem that Tu-16s missiles ignore their targets?

@SwineyPTSD - I've created it now - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3367530026

is there a version where you can play the other side ? i dont wanna play with cubas shitty navy

Been waiting to play this one ever since I saw the video: great choice of theatre, and great combined air/sea power play!
