Title: V1 Buzzbombs in AH
Post by: jarbo on November 17, 2001, 11:36:00 PM

Wouldn't they be cool.  
Cost: 10 Buff perks
Range: 80 miles minimum - some max
Launch:  From a base using Land mode like in CV
Warning: SYSTEM announcement that a buzz bomb is inbound to the X,X Grid when launched.  
Perk Value: When killed 5 fighter perks


Thoughts?

S!

Too many perks at 5.  They aren't very tough to kill if you are in a Pony, Typhoon, Tempest, La-7, 190D or Jug with alt.  They do around 400mph at 5,000ft.  And although they are small, they don't maneuver.

If they are enabled, make sure there are sites from which they are launched which can be bombed.  With lots of AA defence...  :)

Don't perk it.
Make a ramp near the HQ. Every 30 min launch a single V1, who will cross the map at 5K and target a country City. If the V1 hit, it destroys 50% of the city.
5K, any1 will be able to get it.

 Installing V1/V2 ramps near HQ...

I love the idea!

should make to where you need 3 people to make one V1 or 2. That way we wont have 200 V1's inbound.

How about a baka bomb you could fly?

Or better yet, a NUCLEAR bomb you could ride on.

S!

V2 would be waste of time.  Can't be intercepted.  Propelled up to the upper levels of the atmosphere, falls back onto target at tremendous speeds.  Inaccurate, just a terror weapon.  (V1 was terror weapon too, but so many of them were launched they acutually could do economic damage)

Personally I don't want a V1.  They don't seem to be much fun because of a lack of player-to-player action.  It is you and a dumb drone.  I don't see how it would make the air combat any more fun and engaging.

Interesting enough, the same company that made the V1 also made the Storch..give us both!

I am not sure that this would add much value to the game. Besides then we would have something else to whine about (Lazer V1s)

V2 and V1 makes nice craters in the ground even without explosive charge...
