Of course the other guys will have one too. Or did you mean just for your chess peice?

I am thinking about droping one of those in the lake in fighter town. :rofl
100 kills are worth 1000 perk points :O

Are Photon Torpedoes equipped with atomics?
-
this is a great idea... imagine
each country accumilates technology points for each base they capture, say 50 points per base. If they lose a base they lose the points. Once the country has 1000 points the HQ spawns a Tech building ala Command & Conquer. Once the building spawns it takes maybe two hours to create the atomic bomb and makes it available. During this period the Tech building can be destroyed and the building process starts over, if the country has lost enough bases to have less than 1000 points then they have to start over. Once it's created the atomic bomb will only be available from the nearest base to the HQ similar to the 163 and only in a special B-29 that can only be flown by the highest ranked bomber pilot. If during flight a higher ranked bomber pilot logs in he can bump that pilot ala CV control. The B-29 shall be painted bright orange and will be represented by a flashing red light on the map

rooks would have the points in a matter of minutes but we would have to use it as quickly as possible because we tend to let our bases go after that:D ,but we need NO nukes in the game none, 0, zilch
-
photon torps are not equipped with atomics they made of yield i think
-
I also think their should b a specific kind of bomber so it can carry the Atomic bomb
-
B29?:O
-
LOL. This A-bomb topic is getting fun. Yes, I like that idea of the highest rank bomber thing and all, I just dont want bright orange because its UGLY!!! A standard B29 skin is enough, therel be so many enemy fighters on the formation, all the bombers will get shot down anyway!
-
Photon torpedoes are meant to reduce shield strength. Its the phasers that run off warp engines that do the real damage. Yes..Im a geek.
-
PLease tell me school starts soon.
-
Lol, so you want to wait for three hours or more to get one bomb to destroy one town? :rofl

With some of the Vulchers hovering over a field, yea three hours seems like nothing.
I say bring the C&C NOOK!!!11one:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

Where there will be a nuke, there will be someone dumb enough to wander in the blast radius and and up KS'ing the pilot
-
I'm all for a nuke. But only having it be able to be mounted to a LA-7.

That'd actually be somewhat interesting.

I believe the B-29 would be faster than at least half of the fighters in a flat out run without factoring having to climb after it. Not to mention the bomber volume of fire and that most any attack would be a tail chase because of the speed of the B-29.
So, no, all the bombers wouldn't get shot down.
-
me and the knight have talked about this BILLIONS of times.
-
how fast is the b29?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-29_Superfortress#Specifications_.28B-29.29
Maximum speed: 357 mph (310 knots, 574 km/h)
Cruise speed: 220 mph (190 knots, 350 km/h)
Stall speed: 105 mph (91 knots, 170 km/h)
Combat radius: 3,250 mi (2,820 nm, 5,230 km)
Ferry range: 5,600 mi (4,900 nm, 9,000 km)
Service ceiling: 33,600 ft (10,200 m)
Rate of climb: 900 ft/min (4.5 m/s)
Wing loading: 69.12 lb/ft² (337 kg/m²)
Power/mass: 0.073 hp/lb (121 W/kg)
Lift-to-drag ratio: 16.8

I guess it depends who you ask.
http://www.warbirdsresourcegroup.org/URG/b29superfortress.html
Performance:
Max. Speed: 357 mph (575 km/h)
Cruising Speed: 290 mph (467 km/h)
Climb to 25,000 ft. (7620m): 43 minutes
Service Ceiling: 36,000 ft. (10,973 m)
Range (With 10,000 lb. bombload):
3,250 miles (5230 km)
they show a cruising speed of 290 vs 220 from above. I would say there are a few planes in AH that could catch a b-29, 262, Tempest, TA-152, 109K4, 190D9, P-47N, etc
-
are they quick getting up to speed or does it take a long time to get there.
also, would a full load out alter these stats?
-
We would finally be able to use air-to-airs in the G-14

Was just reading about them, seems they took a while to get up to speed, was one of the primary reasons for overheating on the P&W engines, why they were so unreliable. Braking starts were not an option, especially when loaded.
