Whats the point in having bomber hangars???  A porker can without effort, take down ords at a field in 3-4 passes, and completely shut down all bombers.....what gives

If I line up my passes right, I can do it in 2 passes. :D

Seriously though, thats a good question.

Shouldnt ammo include .303's, 7.77s, .50's, and all cannons?  Why dont we have a bunker that houses this ammo thats destructable? not saying I want this, but wtf...Its not right that bombers can be shut down so easily...Only way around it is to make all bombers available without ords

Simple.............IL2s.  When fields are porked, they can still up.  They are HUGE when fighter hangers are down, you can up IL2s and fight the heck outta the CAP and whatever else till Fighter Hangers come back up!

Why is the Il2 the exception?  Well...The IL2, D3a, SBD and JU-88...All other "bombers" are restricted to ords.......:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Remember AW, when ammo percentage was down, you would up with less ammo, when fuel was degraded you had worse fuel and less power.

BH is for bombers.  Ord is for bombers and jabos.  Good question though.  I'd say remove the BH from the front lines.  Make it so they have to fly for an hour in order to divebomb with their B24s. :D

If you are asking for a more playable strat system that gives a point to this so called war good luck with that.  It hasn't really changed in at least 3 years.  Would be great to have some more involved system to give the whole idea more purpose but don't hold your breath.

Here's an idea. Quit friggin crying about it and play the game. It isn't gonna change any time soon so deal with it. There is no way that HTC can't please everyone who plays the game but they give it a great effort. There will always be these little things that people cry about, but this one is getting old. My 2 cents. :aok

A sad contribution from the moneyguy, figured you were loaded.

I'll put in $0.03, adjusted for inflation.
