Am I wrong to think that we should have more options to spend our bomber perks on than just Ar234s?

A-26 now there is a bomber worth spending perks on.
Ju87-g or IL2 with the 37 mm.

The B-29 has been beaten to death. I do not want to bring it up here. HT should put an end to the discussion on that plane and either say yeah, or nay to the super fort.

But you amass x number of bomber perks....ya gotta spend them, after all, that's the whole idea behind perks, right? Why only one option? This is what I'm talking about

How about the ordinance load is perked?  Incendiaries instead of HE...burn the town down.  The radio guided missile (whatever the designation was) that the germans had....

 He has, he said NO  in rather bold type.

 Or the Anti-ship missle they had, that would make short work of a CV

They have Brenjen? Didn't know....

That's the unit I was thinking of....it was used for anti-shipping,

That I would pay good money for.

Torps on a Ju88 are useless

It would be nice to something to spend bomber perks on. Anything. The AR234 is just a waste of good perks. I bet when the staff at HTC looks at all the work that went into  the 234 they all say "Now there is a big chunk of my life I won't get back"

:D

Still say a Lanc with a Blockbuster or Earthquake bomb would be worth the perks. :)

Agree -- need more than one perk ride for the perks to be meaningful.

That goes for another Perk vehicle too, but at least the Tiger is useful . . .

Treize is on the same wavelength as me here....if ya can't have a new perked aircraft....get perked ordinance.

And as for 25280's comment....they should get a medium perk tank to bridge the gap between the tiger and the others....But let's not digress.

like i said the ultimate perk buff is the A-26.
Attack AC with the Heavy bomber load out.


Perk it like a 234 and it would still be the most used buff in game.
Or how about the B-25 with the 75 mm gun.
I'd pay perks to fly that.
Just takes some imagination on ht part.
Also the B-24 should have a light perk.
Same defensive gun load as a 17 but with more ords and speed.
It makes the 17 more of a rarity.
