Forgive Nemesis, he's too busy spamming the BBS to stop, read and comprehend.   

Yup, thats why YOU'RE the one that replyed to a resolved OP.

IIRC it was not resolved until Ht made it that way, and Karaya posted before that. There fore it was not resolved.

Beefcake, I admit I don't enjoy breaking even (just barely too) against bombers.

Have you thought that the reason why you do so poorly against bombers is that you're using the incorrect tactics to engage them?  Try improving or learning new tactics instead of trying to nerf the game into oblivion.

Hold on a sec. Hitec EXPANDED the radar coverage. Would it not give you more warning time that we are on the way to your bases. It's not like it's unannounced.

Exactly, there really isn't all that much of a valid reason for not being able to intercept a bomber raid, even one with altitude. 

How can we expect the toolshedders to adapt to the new changes in the game play when we furballers refuse to do the same?

Just a small tip when attacking a set of bombers- attack the drones first, makes it just a bit tougher to aim and get full concentration on you.

The main reason why you attack the drones first instead of the lead (manned) bomber is to keep the drones from warping into the lead slot and preventing a collision when you shoot down the manned bomber.

I'm well aware of the fact that I don't know everything there is to know.

The OP was resolved when we all agreed that there is no need to nerf bombers. I didn't post this because a bomber killed me and I was pissed. I posted this because I flew into a wall of the 91'st bombers, and got to thinking that the ammount of guns firing was excessive (I still do as a matter of fact).

However, I've gotten a few tips on bomber busting (from this thread and in the game), and I've learned how to use those german rockets (marvelous things they are)

I wonder if the Luftwaffe pilots intercepting the bomber streams over Europe complained that the number of guns firing back at them from the bombers were excessive.  Makes me wonder if they sent letters of complaint to the 8th AF and RAF Bomber Command to tone down the number of guns that could fire back at them or limit how many bombers could be in the bomber stream.

hmmmm.... that would be a good comeback if the game were more than 70% accurate, and if we didn't have spits fighting P-51's, and zeeks fighting Ki-61's. Unfortunatly for your argument, there has already been concessions for game play reasons.

Well we could add Pawn's King's Queen's as country's and then we can have each Chess piece fly for the 5 country's

Bishop's  British
Rook's    German
Knight's  Italian's
King's     American
Queens   Japanese
Pawn's    Russian


WELL IT'S JUST A THOUGHT IT MAY ALSO ENCOURAGE THE SWITCHING OF SIDE'S MORE  
  NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS SAYS HiTech

But my comments are absolutely on target because you were whining about the 'excessive' firepower of the B-17s that were firing at you.  Whether or not we have historical game play or concessions made in the name of game play is irrelevant and doesn't negate the point of my comment.  In case the point was lost, I was basically calling you a whiner.

And I'm saying you have no grounds to attack my whine (I'll admit it, I was whining  ) for historical reasons when we have spitfires fighting P-51's, and Zeeks fighting Ki-61's.
