Post by: bfreek on May 28, 2003, 12:58:55 AM
its bad enuf now with 30 radio controlled 1.7kill b17x3 formations.
adding maybe 50-100 more guns gonna make it more realisitic?

what they should do is the more bombers per sortie the higher you have to be in order for your bombs to explode. so in a formation of 24 bombers you must be 15K+ altitude for your bombs to drop and explode.

Hopefully they will have different sizes of formations. The bigger the formation the sweeter the victory. If you actually make it through and land your kite:)
Title: Perks

How about 5 perks for every additional bomber in your formation.

But yuo get all your perks back for landing even one of the bombers:D

if i undestand correctly in AH2 there will be large bomber's formation:  some  bombers driven by AI and some other by real pilots
so if just one bomber pilot is going to accept the mission he will have under his own controll 3 bomber but he will be never alone....so i do not undestand why discussing about that i think it's useless put moore bombers in single fligth:rolleyes:

My point was from the point of the fighters that will attack the bombers. Sweeter the reward for knocking 'em out of the air.
