Title: Napalm Bombs?
Post by: Rendar on October 27, 1999, 12:11:00 PM

I was wondering if the soon-to-be-modeled F-4U Corsair will have napalm bombs as a loadout option.  Napalm bombs would be very helpful in destroying acks, rolling aircraft, paratroops, tanks, you name it.

Shouldn't that be:

How do you render a gigantic plume of flame anyway?  Is it possible on such a large scale, without a major framerate hit?

Ahh...but remember to drop a significant distance from the flock of sheep.  The idea is to burn the hair off and lightly cook the meat, not destroy it.  C'mon.... we're chefs, not butchers!

I would only allow napalm in AH if we could also get senior citizens in wheelchairs to shoot at.  Oh - even better - replace the paratroopers with senior citizens....that love the environment...and whales... and are pro-religion...and... uhm... other stuff that would piss people off when I kill them!

Were not discussing a Napalm Balm here?

I know its a bad joke, but what the hey.

Along with Pro-Religous, Old People, Etc.

the NUNs Target, the Yuppie Target, the Kittens and Puppies Target, the William Jefferson Clinton Intern Pool Target, The Non-Handicapped People who park in Handicapped Spaces Target, the People who decided we need all thos Handicapped Spaces Target, the People who though up the $.009 cent added on to a gallon of gasoline target, Etc... Etc..

Those would be my favorite Targets.

Actually, I can see a real use for napalm in the arena (seriously folks)

It'd almost be the ultimate vulch, a pair of F4u's screaming in at 50 feet and torching the runway and approaches.

Of course, you'd have to model aircraft interaction with the flames but ....... hmmmm
