Optional amount of bots for bomber group
« on: September 29, 2012, 04:30:45 AM »
I was thinking, We should have a choice to have 3-5 other bots in our group. Cause if your gonna bomb a city on your own, your gonna need more bots.

I think you should have 999 drones to recreate the 1000 bomber raids. Firebombs too to decimate the cities. And we need AI Ponies and Jugs to fly above the massive formations and provide fighter cover :old:

I do just fine with my bombers, I can get a White Flag in two passes (if I'm wide awake that day), so no.    :ahand

Good try though.   :aok

OK, lets consider two players: you in your set of three B17Gs trying to bomb my town and me in my Spit IX trying to stop you.  You have 39 guns to fire at me.  I have essentially two to fire at you (the 0.303s won't do much of anything).  If you shoot off my wing I'm done.  If I shoot off your wing you've got two bombers and 26 guns left.  Now you want to make those odds even worse?

Never in my life have I ever called my drones bots. Never will either!!
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

They need to fix the search function so it displays the latest topics by default first instead of topics from 2001.
