When are we going to get the b29? It was responsible for winning the pacific campain.


Ok ...for the 1000th time:

In order for us to have B29's HTC would have to redo all the airfields .....on all the maps .....thats a big job!! 

.....ask yourself:  "do you think this is really going to happen?"

I am all for it's addition.  Super perk the heck out of it.  Oh, and no nuclear weapons in this game ever. 

Actually, no, not even that. They did as much damage as a standard napalm bomb raid... and the emperor of Japan later said, "The nukes did not lose us the war, they only helped me make up my mind."

But...



And a good quote from someone was, if we get the nuke and b-29, we better have radiation...

"A16's down."
"They just dropped A36"
"Those idiots, don't they know they're gonna die from the radiation??"

You could but you have to have a field thats 0.0k alt and no trees on either NW, NE, SW, SE . And widen the fields... Plus a dozen maybe more miles to get into the correct alt. The point is, we aren't going to get it. YET

True. I mean, a squad of guys could flatten 5-7 airfields with a B29. 7 buff pilots and a couple Ponies for escort. Just get the 29's up to a good 25-30K...

thats the point..as stated, very few people would have the patience to actually climb one to where it is high enough to be safe from the blast.  Heck...the pilot of the B-29 said he felt the explosion at 30k..or however high he was

why do you guys even mention a nuke, it's by far the worst idea I've ever heard of.

It's a super weapon that just does not fit into this style of game play, theres no use for it...

No B-29s, 999000 would kill us all. He is like the Chuck Norris of Buff Gunnery.

PERK 999000!

My dad told me the B-29 engines always overheated on takeoff.  They'd get wheels up, open the cowlings,  then fly straight and level over the ocean until everything cooled back down after which they'd start climbing.  At random intervals the blisters would pop out and take the gun controller with them, too.  On the whole he preferred his B-24.

B-17 = greatest allied bomber ever used in WW2.  No need for B29 when you already have the best.
