CV vs Level Bombers

[SunBat]

For those who have said that CV's are too hard to kill except with bombers and that dive bombing is not a possible tactic to kill a CV, ju are wrong.

[Tilt]

There was full manual calibration in the MA and we saw the results. Wind, bomb dispersion and things that make level bombing less effective lead to only one thing - dive bombing lancasters/B17s. Unless some mechanism that prevents heavy bombers from dive bombing (bomb release from F6 view, restriction on dive angle for release, etc.) is installed, this will happen again.

2 wrongs do not make a right IMO.

I would welcome full manual calibration, windage etc regardless of what ever fix may reduce the "missuse" of of heavy bombers. I would equally welcome a fix re the "misuse" of heavy bombers regardless of what ever fix may reduce the use of easymode level bombing.

As it is a game then (IMO) both could be available but with a penalty of some sort (higher random drift? 50% lethality?) applied to easy mode calibration.

I don't get this, "I want wind" requests. What team should have the advantage?

Just a thought...  Tie wind direction to ENY in some fashion.  Maybe the team with the most players gets a head wind.

I'll send $20 to anyone who does a quick search and finds a post of CAP whining or wanting a change in the game.  I just don't have time myself right now, but twenty bones would be worth it.

OK thanks guys, and to the bomber guys I didn't see this as a whine but I guess if your ox is getting gored you see it that way.

It isn't a whine. On these boards anything that someone disagrees with gets the whine moniker attached to it. Seems many discussions are buried beneath that word. We should not be so limited in our vocabulary.

sure it is.

Heh you and alot if others, of course it has nothing to with this subject but if thats what turns your crank go to it.  If I recall correctly we started calling it a game when EZ mode was introduced and Dale has said its a game now so I have no arguement with that I guess, but suggestions to improve the game are still accepted as far as I know.  Since it's a game I wonder why we post fm stats??
