Allowing more than one guy to join a bomber flight
« on: April 19, 2010, 01:51:19 PM »
Ok, ths may have been done before, but here it goes, The B17-B24-B-25 and all bombers had more than 2 guys right? how about allowing more than one guy to "Join" a bomber in flight, like say FILL THE PLANE UP?  Just a thought.

He's no friend of mine.

The alternative to multiple gunners would be, like in Air Warrior, you cannot gun your own buffs... ever.

Sound OK?

In that previous thread, HiTech said it wasn't coming to AH.  Why do people keep on insisting on it when the powers that be already shot it down, not just once but numerous times over the years?  

Stop beating a dead horse.

Hmmm interesting, so then we are to allow all the fighters and people to believe that it is really that easy to down the FLYING FORTRESS?  at the current level, AI would be better, Come on Guys, what ya afraid of? actually having to work to kill one? As it stands now, even a DR1 can shoot a bomber down...

if you're getting shot down in B-17s ... you need to practice your gunnery ...

What we have now is significantly more effective that what you propose.

So, you are basically asking to make bombers more vulnerable because you think they are to vulnerable.  Before you ask for something, understand it first.
