I would love to see these 8 bombers next...

1) Heinkel He-111 H-11
2) Mitsubishi G4M2a Model 24 "Betty"
3) Armstrong Whitworth Whitley Mk V
4) Savoia-Marchetti SM.79-I "Sparrowhawk"
5) Vickers Wellington Type 417 B Mk III
6) Dornier Do-17 Z-3
7) Mitsubishi Ki-21-IIb "Gwen" (aka "Sally")
8) Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress

isnt the b17f the bomber with alot extra guns and ammo to protect the other bombers

Of course you guys would see the He-111 in there.  When I first encountered Aces High (saw it's commercial watching the History Channel I might add), I was truly surprised to see that it was not in there, considering it's importance in World War 2.  But enough on the Heinkel rant. :lol

I am, of course, expecting someone to say, "What good will these "target drones" be in the MA?", or something along those lines (except for the B-17F probably lol).  Personally, I would use them in MA just for the pure fun.  :aok  I'm sure the Early and Mid War arena guys would be happy with more bombers to play with, though I'm fairly certain they want fighters more than bombers.  :lol  Each of these planes would do wonders for Early War FSO's and Snapshots, and it would add that nice touch of variety for bomber selections.  Especially when the ENY gets bad. :D

Also, could we limit to just bombers?  I am WELL aware of the need for various other Fighters and Ground Vehicle's.  Trying to decided on 8 Fighters and/or 8 Ground Vehicle's would take a good while to sift through and decide.  If anything, it wouldn't be limited to just 8. :rolleyes:  :lol  Ell, originally I was gonna say 5 bombers, but I couldn't stop.  8 is a good number though. :aok

EDIT: As this continues along, it can turn into a Bomber Poll Wishlist.  The motive behind the madness. :x

Why?  Are you now pacing around your parents basement in utter frustration now because someone brought up the B-29 again.

i'm not frustrated, but just looking at this realistically. They just redid the airfields and the runway length is still the same. You need to drastically increase the length of the long runway in order to have a chance of taking of the B-29. I'm guessing they arent going to be redone in a long while.

A-26 Invader (a good reason to use the bomber perks - for which the 234 is the only thing we can spend them on.)
PB4Y-2 Privateer (used as both a low-level interdiction bomber and medium-alt heavy bomber)
B-25J (a mo' bettah B-25)
He-177
Ju-88G (because the A-4s were obsolete by 1942)
Pe-2
Hs-129 (more of a ground attack a/c, really)
G4M Betty (even with their tendency to burn)

And while we're at it - Beaufighter, Me-410, Gloster Meteor, He-219, and how about adding R4Ms to the 262?

Unless I'm mistaken, There are High alt. airfields in the game with cliffs at the end of their runways.  That's pretty much all you'd need.
