I'd actually like to see more of the organized bombing missions.  People flying correct formations for the targets and having a bunch of little birds escorting them.  I tend to fly escort missions here and there for bomber groups.  It's a very intense moment when the cons start gathering to take the bombers out.

 Seems like all of a sudden it's mass chaos with cons attacking the buffs and little birds in hot pursuit to deny them of getting a kill.  It's pretty exciting to try and fend off attacks.  Hopefully with TOD we'll see more of these organized raids with organized intercept missions.

I love high alt bombing but I'm a bish so I probably will end up bombing your stuff as much as your NMY's :) sorry

Ya Cobra, just 1 of those a night would appease me. Like if at 9pm et everynight, everyone jumped in buffs,escorts,and interceptors and each night the roles rotated,giving one team a night free from it every third night.

Right here, FiLtH  lol  :lol  I fly either as Flossy (Kraits) for Bishops or SKFlossy (SkyKnights) for Rooks.  :)

Must admit I haven't played as much recently as I do spend a lot of time in Second Life.  :D

Or Somthing? That's the point there has never been any decent strategic targets for buffs to hit and make any impact. Let alone the effort of organising a mission with escorts.

Why bother when you can just up the same flight over and over and dive bomb CV"s all day.

Since 1.10 it was rare to see a buff above the wind layer let alone organised missions as well.

I know that the target selection is limited to a radar facility, and its a long flight. But a bases's town could be the target as well, as well as multiple towns. The fun part about missions is how well its planned and executed. Being assigned "that" hanger, or that side of the city. Doing your part.

   Getting there is 7/8 the fun.  I like to meet in the tower, and assign guys to things to hit, and knowing they know their part of the plan. It just separates the same old grind in here, from what it could be. If a certain time of day to play a certain way became routine, it could become a great addition to gameplay.

  Id love to see a Perk plane factory in each country. If you destroy it, a random type perk plane would be unavailable for 1 hour.

   There is more to this game that running to a base on the deck and grabbing bases, its just us to our imaginations to improve it. You dont need to have a special event, to play that way.
