Whats wrong with these screenshots?

[SEraider]

This is why I advocate perking ord-loadout so it has less of momentum shift.  But that was another thread. 

Anybody care to reset it?

uptown i guess ur not in the da much considering i spend more time in there than the ma. especially when both arenas are big maps

Well, if bombers come through they haven't - at least no high alt CAP. As stated by many posters before we have several ways to deal with bombers. Why would you want to artificially neuter them? Climbing to alt and go bomber hunting takes time and is dangerous - so not the instant-action type of gameplay mentioned furballers might want. But climbing out with buffs takes even longer time and usually you have ample warning where they come from. More often than not I chased a small dar bar sector by sector, hunting ghost-dots (or speckles on my screen) - for me this can be as fun and rewarding as plunging into a 20+ plane furball.

So the conclusion stands - if you don't want the bombers to take FH down protect it by the many ways described above.

AH is not about dogfight only - otherwise we wouldn't need bombers (or GVs) at all!!!

pls refer to the bottom of my post instead of quoting some line from the top.

I go after bombers...... As long as they are under 10k, I don't fly higher than that because most of the fights are below that. There are only 2 reasons to drop FH, new guys trying to help, and to stop a furball ( either to piss people off or to make the furballers help in the war effort...like that is going to work). A new guy can be excused..even helped by letting him know what needs to be hit, but the others.... Well that falls back to a little respect.

What I find funny here is that the fighter jocks COULD take out ammo and supplies very easily. Most are very skilled and hitting a target that doesn't move is pretty easy anyway. I'm thinking the buff/win the war types should be pretty happy the fighter guys don't want to waste the time to do it, they would be the ones complaining there NEVER and bombs available!

I am attracted to buffs like a fly is to shet.  Cant seem to help myself.  Altitude is not a barrier.

Ive been in acouple special events so far.....and I cant remember 1 where they dropped hangars so the enemy couldnt up...

That's because you usually only have one life in scenarios, and everyone is already up.  But they still bomb the hangars...  As a matter of fact, I think it was DoB where the objective was to take a Vbase, which meant killing that hangars so the GV's couldn't up (I think GV's had 2 lives? )

Can you guess why?
1)   First of all, if they are at 15K I need to about 5 minutes to get nice and slow on their 6.  FH down by then.
2)   Laser guns that will at list PW or hit your oil from 800 to 1000 out
3)   Damage one of them and your FPS may or may not survive.
4)   Drons may warp into you
5)   Kill the lead and they ride it down for 30 seconds with the drones all over the place
6)   The could bail as soon as you get near
7)   If you are lucky and survive, you are now out of ammo and damaged.  RTB time

Maybe you have the time to try all that.  I ll just give my six to the nearest con and try to fight it out.

All that you wrote is also my observation and true.  I think that is the challenge, and therefore the greater reward when rising to. and overcoming the challenge.  You must have patience, SA, proper plane choice, gunnery skills, and knowledge of the bomber type you are attacking so you can exploit their weakness while playing to your strengths.

I <S> the buffers.  I really enjoy the hunt and the kill with them, especially if they know what they are doing and have some alt.

You're saying you had to drop hangars?  Well then your comment before was irrelevant and false.
