Well, now that it's finally out there that the B-29 is in post-production, I thought we could talk about how the MA is going to change with such a HUGE bomber lurking about.

I would imagine that this 70,000 pound monster will carry quite a heavy punch.  We may be able to close 4 or 5 bases at a time with maximum loadouts.  Or, of course, a full quarter of the smaller maps would be blown to H3LL with just one Fat Man.

Are we - collectively - ready for the Big Time, yet?

Tbolt, where/how did you find out we're getting the B29?

I think you'll be in for a shock if you think we'll be getting one.
