Sea Hurricaine

I think your biggest problem as Knights is that the Rooks still view the Knights as a softer target than the Bishops.

I think that needs to be fixed first, and the CV base grabbing skills will come with it.

Since the Pigs on the Wing are a Knights forever squad, I'm trying to gin up tools for Nitland to help us in spite of ourselves. Most knight big mission CV base taking if at all, takes place very late at night with RacerX or FBDred leading a pack of willing knights and a "strategy". If I logon early, I watch the knights park a CV on top of a base and never get it down for 4-6 hours. And there will be 20 or so knights fumbling around never getting the base while 5 or 6 do most of the work.

The Hurri IIC would make it possible for the 5 or 6 knights with a will, to get the town down, kill flackers and capture the base while the rest play grab kester with the defenders. 4 cannons on a non-perked CV plane would be an assist in spite of themselves for the knights at this point. If you think about it, the hurri is so slow, manned ackers and whirbels make minced meat of them quickly. Defenders will be able to get up N1KI asap to mow them from the sky.

My focuse is the small group of players who always do the grunt work on the town who would know what to do with this tool. 4-20mm and 2-500lb bombs. Its not like I'm asking HiTech to unperk the CHog with 2x the 20mm ammo and ord.

It still comes down to wanting an unperked 4 cannon bird off a carrier.

Nits: 

get more organized please 

there are other planes that deserve to be in game

[caldera]

4 cannon rides are for girly-men. 


Except for the mossie.

[Devonai]

Why not just perk it?  I don't see abuse of the F4U-C so maybe the price is right.

[B4Buster]

Well Devonai I think in this case they want a cannon bird CV plane that isn't perked. Otherwise it wouldn't be that big of a deal.

The point of this was obviously to have an aircraft that you can lift off a CV, spray all it's ammunition away at a town and then bravely auger so you can up a new one more quickly. You can't do that when you have to pay perks.

And the brave, virtuous, honorable Rooks and Bish wont do exactly that themselves? But they do up unperked 4 cannon N1KI to defend spraying and praying till they die or auger and reup again.............

The Hurri simply has to be enabled for use from CV's. It's not a new updated plane. In the Med it got lots of use as fleet protection. Do any of you remember P39 and C47 available from CV during some scenarios? At least this would not be in the BS leage with boxes of dive bombing lancs taking out the whole fleet. Thought you big tough uber aces didnt care what was flown at you, or am I hearing whining from the aces on high??????
