With realistic bomb-sights, it might look like the bombs all missing the field by a quarter of a mile :).

With realistic bomb-sights we might finally see an end to the "strato buff" phenomenon.  :D

I already crapped my pants, but I'll hold off on washing them until I see the film.

The Buffs will definatley put an end to furballing. Bases not defended by scores of fighters will be destroyed.

I cant wait.

Turning Headon into a formation of 40+ B-17's reminds me of EAW.Only this time it will be 40X cooler than EAW.

What happens when two opposing buff forces meet Head On?

Buff Wars?
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Couple points:
a) We don't know how will it exactly work.
b) Same as A.

Have some faith.

btw do you remember how a single Lancaster could shut down a base, i.e kill all hangars in two pass?
That didn't last too long before HTC did add more hangars and spreaded them around the base.

Aiming bombs will be tougher job than it is now: No more laser guided bombs falling from 30k. With dispersion one bomber formation would maybe kill one or two hangars; pretty much same as bombers can do now.

let's get something straight.  Furballing is as important as carpet bombing as a game. I see that some of us don't see it that way.  If the gaming concept is going to shift towards bombing, well, it will lose some of its lust for me.  That is of course my opinion.

this whole thing about box formation and drone buffs, I see it as a change in the bombing aspect of the game and not a change in the concept of it.  However, the comment there implies that furballing is going to be eliminated, which is a change in the gaming concept.  Of course, that will not happen completely, its just a matter of how much.

Of course, these are all thoughts.  We will have to see how this is going to affect the concept.  If I don't like it, then it is tough luck for me.  And that will be the time, when I start lobbying for a Furball Atoll.

It will only put an end to furballing if the entire arena is concerned about "losing the war."  Something tells me the group who occupies the big island on Ndisles could care less who wins the war.  They want to furball!  And, guess what?  It's their $14.95. :)

Nefarious,

I believe what you are suggesting could be "Dances with Elephants",  maybe "The Elephant Dance", "The Buff Box Step",
or any number of other insinuations referring to the large size of the bomber.
