getting 30 player missions in low level ploesti style liberator raids is a total blast and the b24 has the power to get in to the target and do damage with its heavy defenses and payload.

and thats what was missing from the bomber gameplay.

somthing new that can kick bellybutton that people are familiar with and want to fly.

build new bombers and people will fly them. the new bombsite is noob friendly and higher alt bombing is fun again.

so now as HTC is contemplating their next move and since the MA is the bread and butter and not the CT...

I cast my vote for the B-25 Mitchell because of its historic and nostalgic value and its wide selection of variants.

the a26 invader is more powerful but the B-25 is so symbolic of american air power in world war 2.

HTC hooked me back into flying bombers with the B-24 and the more enjoyable bomb siting system. I hope they run with it and offer more powerful American bombers. because lets face it. there are no axis bomber squads. why kid ourselves and pretend that there are? every bomber squad in AH is an american Iron bomber squad because americans love american bombers.

hehe I am feeling patriotic after voting yesterday :D


B25 is nice
but can wait till we not get more axis and russian stuff
its time for DO17/he111

its up fom axis squad on MA? first to heore

many events we play is based on 1940-1943
how long one and only one choice should be ju88?
correct me if im wrong, but so far AH have only 2 axis bombers with 2 engines, 3 with one engine (im not counting 190f)
compared to allies thats mean nothing and not cover our SEA needs
Same for VVS
NONE 2 engine VVS bomber (of cours we can count boston/A20, but thats not the same)
Eastern and pacific fronts are worst covered by the planes from all stages of ww2.

Id like to see b25h in AH2 too , but not now

The B25 was flown by the U.S.A., Australia, China, Netherlands, Soviet Union(870 of them), and the RAF. Also Brazil, Mexico and and Italy after they changed sides.

Fester, you have it backwards. Its not that there are no Axis bombing squads because we all LOVE the american buffs, its because there ARE no axis bombers (except for the not very formidable JU88). Admitted, the american bombers are more fun to the average player, because you get the most flash and bang, plus lots of guns to shoot with, but how can there be an Axis strategic bombing squad with the current planeset?
