You speak of things that deal with Fighter/Attack score........................ ..........



That is only half the battle. 

[Debrody]

Then the bombers? Milkrunning rulez 
Seriously, you can get the most points from bombing town centres, pretty much the same story. I see a red dot on the map, i up, but only 25K 17s bombing the town...

Probably would be no point in climbing to 25k sir.

[LLogann]

After 23k, some of our fighter aircraft have marginal performance.  So from a practical point of view, once you icon the bombers, depending on what you're in, might take 20 minutes to intercept.  Many folk won't "waste" that time, and some others just aren't in the right fighter.  

Why don't you kill them?

Why don't you kill them?

Because by the time you get to 25k the buffs cruise away at super speed. If you try to up in front of them they just change their path because it doesn't matter which town they hit they are up for that 2 hour cruise around to drop one bomb on each town they pass.

I dont like to climb 30 mins after 20k+ b17s only to lose my 109 g-6...

Edit: flame suit on

change the scoring system

separate ground kills from air kills and score these kills accordingly

say air kill worth 2 points
ground kill worth 1 point would change it IMO

If anything it would certainly open up the bombing category to actually require some interaction.

Debrody, you and me gotta wing sometime.

[The Fugitive]

I understand why the scoring is set the way it is. I gives a guy like me a chance, even tho I don't fly often, to place well on the scoreboard. It encourages working in all fields there by getting players to participate in all facets of the game.

On the other hand, it causes players only playing for score (which is their right to go for) to avoid doing anything that might hurt their score. So you get those buffs hitting towns 1 bomb at a time, and fighters running from fights unless they hold ALL the cards and are ASSURED a kill with no danger to themselves.
