Well, last night there were about 6 formations of B17's over our HQ at 40k. Come to find out, they were empty(they climb faster that way). They flew all the way to shoot down planes from a gun platform. They said they announced they had no bombs. So we are to trust that 6 formations of B17's closing on HQ have no bombs. At 40k most planes handle terrible and 163's have less than 1/4 tank when they get to 40k. They didn't even take fuel to get back. So to attack the 17's, we have to burn perks for 163's, yet the dweebs suffer no penalty for gaming the game. If 163's are to protect HQ, and are only available at one field, then they shouldn't be perked. That, or perk formations of bombers or allow an intercepter formation.
They said they were having "fun" and that it is just a game. If Wax and Yucca are having "fun", then what is the problem? If this is the way Hitech sets it up to be, and the object is to have "fun", no matter how you manipulate the game, then I do not see the problem. It's the way it is, don't like it, quit. That's what i've been told.
