AH2 needs...

A b29 with a nuclear bomb!  After all it ended the war!

B29 would be great, but I say leave the nuke out. was only a couple droped. We wouldnt want tod to end after one day of B29s droping nukes and there would be no enemy hehe

Well, they could run some sort of fictional Hiroshima mission in ToD where one side must prevent the dropping of the nuke on target, or something.  Most likely any weapon like that would be special-scenario only.

The B-29 itself is an essential addition for AH2, although I would expect it to be a Perk plane.

As far as the nuke is concerned, I think it would be interesting to have, but it would only be very useful for HQ, and only if HQ were larger.
HQ should probably be much larger and harder to take out anyway, and dropping a Fat Man or a Little Boy would take it out in one swoop. The nuke would have to be a very high perk weapon, so as to limit its use. 2000 perk?

Could grant the abitlity for nukes once one side has a certain amount of bases - To be able to speed up the map changes...may be a moot point though especially since the decision to swap maps on Friday.

Wouldn't it be great to blow the hell out of a base and all the area around it with one bomb - HA HA

Why not make it that each team can only drop 1 bomb a day!

After all it ended the war!

Technically, the nuke did not end the war.  It was actually, several other things that ended it.  After the second atom bomb was released, japan still refused to surrender.  President Truman was planning a 3rd atom bomb to be dropped on tokyo, but instead it turned out that the russians invaded china.  The russians invading japan occupied chinese territory was partially the reason japan surrendered, but after this they had lost pretty much all the land they had taken.  The japanese emperor feared the invasion of Japan, so before this happened, he surrendered. Did the Atom Bomb help end the war? Yes.  Was it the main reason the war ended? No.  I kinda forget what it was called, but i saw this movie (i think it was called the Fat Man And Little Boy). In it, the team that was developing the a-bomb heard the news that japan was going to surrender any day now, but they chose to keep going with the development of "Fat Man and Little Boy."
There was also "the last mission" on the history channel that i saw that indicated that the A-Bomb did not end the war.

Okay i what i just said was kinda pointless to say, but i keep hearing about how the atom bomb ended the war and it well-didn't.

Being able to drop one atomic bomb per day would be far too much, I think. It should be a very unusual event that only a very skillful and experienced bomber pilot would be able to earn after a great number of successful sorties. Given the scale of things currently, it would be complete overkill to use one, but if the Cities or HQ were made much larger, it might be a useful tool.

No, I think if the bomb could be used more than once every map rotation, it would be too much. On the other hand, I would certainly be very fun. I can just see all of the players rushing to the target base just so they can watch. Somehow, I imagine that the target country's players might not even want to stop it, just for the same reason.

i see the b-29 as a pointless addition. we dont need it!

time spent making the b29 could be better spent making 4 fighters or 2 much needed russian/jap/german  medium bombers

As for the nuke, that would just ruin the game.  22k or 12k bomb for lanc would be much better

Oh bloody hell, don't tell me he thinks pilots carried those in the cockpit aswell



Btw, wasn't the b29's dropping accuracy ****?

[327thBS]

the B-29 would be a vry good add on to AH2 becuase ity  would be funny if ur in a B29 wit a Nuke and u c nmy planes tryin to scrmable and get u..and besides its vry hard to destroy a hq wit a B17 let alone a Lanc due to so many buildings haveing to be destroyed..the best way to destroy a hq is to have 2-3 buff formations and it would be a WHOLE LOT easier if u had a nuke just to flatten the whole place ... and btw if u did use a nuke what would be the range of the explosion ... ??
