Don't worry Sax, I clicked it.  :)

For the record I knew it was a joke, I just didn't know what to expect.

Ad Nauseum.....


They just added the P-47M.  It wasn't requested over and over and over and over and over. 

But it was requested more than once.

Too many bomber perks?  Waste 'em. 

Do an AR234 sweep. 
Up the entire squad and shut down a base with a good furball going on.
Dive bomb GV's.

Use your imagination.

No, the B-29 gets special attention this way.

You made an honest approach for a forum newbie.  You didn't just say "B-29 Superfortress" in the title and then "Add it!" in the text body.  You actually made a post advocating it.  Unfortunately so many people have requested it in bad faith that B-29 requests get this response.

Had  you asked for, say, the Me410 or Beaufighter the response would have been much friendlier even though both of those have been asked for before.

Sorry to see you get a nasty response to a well intentioned post.

B-29's are going to be seen at 25+ K AT LEAST, you know this right?



I seriously doubt that. If anything it will take over as the NOE king for base takes. Very few people have the time to climb it up to 25K, only a few dedicated people will do that.

If it's going to be highly perked, which if it actually came to the game it would be, people will take it up to 25k, at least.  People would learn quickly or burn up perks quickly if they continuously took them under something like 15k.  For me, it'd be 30k+.

No! Wait! He is on to something (this time)! Let them have the B-29 at a perk value of say... 30000 perks.  :x

At 23960 feet the B-29 slows to 100 feet per minute with a standard bomb load (15000 lbs) and with maximum internal bomb load (20000 lbs) her service ceiling is even lower. That translates to an hour to climb from 24000 to 30000 feet and with the fuel modifier you wouldnt get there.

The 'Little Boy' weighed less than half the maximum internal load (about 8800 lbs) and thats how Enola Gay got to 31600 feet over Hiroshima.

So do you want it or not...because if what you say is true it wont be as invincible as I thought it was honestly. One question, what battles were B-29s used in, I have only really heard of them hitting Japanesse mainland
