yea but if you manage to pull it through you get more
And the investment is only the increased micro since its a late game position. I dont know, i mean people start a new game to get into a good position late game and now as they have a chance to play with that position(even as a sub) they dont want it
But for me it doesnt matter anymore its just a game its just for fun so the sub makes all the strategy decisions from now on and if he wants to have a shot at winning its two good game positions to start from even if it is just to test some new strategy or if the sub is new with the nation and he wants to try it they can make more errors and still dont ruin their situation too much.
