We don't do it so you have a reason to stay.

I still think this photo is funny as well:rofl

I have no problem with the addition of the B-29.  Heavy perk the hell out of it though.  An absolute, unwavering, without doubt, unforgiving, unrelenting, non-stop, never-say-die, super huge NO to the nuke.  It is just not needed in this game.

Oink

Yep, that picture is funny.

Pfftt, you'd think collision whines would be enough.

i dont have a problem with the nuke, as long as you allow the Axis side to perfect and bomb, the ever-living daylights out of the Allied side with V-1 and V-2 rockets.

We already have our heavy water plants set up and our atomic development crew is on standby with enriched uranium.

 As an American citizen with German heritage.... ok i was born in nuremburg, i would be totally offended if a nuke is given without the V-1 and V-2 program in full Swing in AVA!!!

make sure you also send small pox infected blankets to the american indians and dont forget to slaughter the sheep from passing trains too.

B29, yes!  Nuke, no!  Make 25K min alt for bomb bays to open or some such similar arrangement.

I really like this.  There are folks who do like to bomb.  Strat bombing was just a little part of the war.  Fighters did mostly things like accompany bombers not furball with unlimited uppers.

The high alt would also make more use of the 163 and 262.

The nuke thing did happen in WWII and for good reason!  At least one of my two uncles came home after the war thanks to the bomb.  However since it was only dropped twice, it would be unrealistic to have nukes going off all over the place in Aces.  THINK OF THE GLOBAL WARMING EFFECTS TOO:rofl

Make B29 maps where they launch from islands six sectors from the mainland and missions take TIME to get over the IP. Make their only load GP bombs. By the way Curtis LeMay ordered missions to drop from 12k because of the winds at alt scattering the bombs.

EXCELLENT POINT.  But really, dont you think we need jdams in a WWII based game?

No nuke is ever going to show up, therefore forget about your V1 or V2. Hitech already said, no bombs over 2 tons.

P.S. Are you proud of your Lufthansa A340-211 Nuremberg (D-AIBA)?

[derkojote23]

Yes you are nuts. That would sorta make base taking a mute point. Some one would get mad and BOOM we would need a new map to play on as no one would be able to up with the RADs we would take. we would all die faster then HTC could change the maps LOL you would give the server a melt down.

Refer to this as to what happens AFTER the nuke is dropped:



Can you guess, or do I have to tell you?

only two were dropped in wartime, and that choice is still being debated, yet peeps want to add it to a dogfighting game.

Ya know, we could solve any number of problems with a single solution.  The Douglas MB-1/AIR-2 Genie.

1. Huge bomber formations.  Gone.
2. Huge furballs.  Gone.
3. Skyrock.  Gone.
4. Cherry pickers.  Gone.
5. Marauding CVs.  Gone.
6. Skyrock.  Well...you get the idea.

Havent been on BBS here for a while (Except for this last week)

As long as we are talking Nooks and B29s.  How long has it been since the Subs Discussions have gone around?

I thought Sub Battles with the CVs was a cool idea.
