Always better to have a bomb(s) and pickle them for a dogfight than to need them and not have them.

Well ok!  So only reason for a bomb is to take real estate? ThaTS RIDICULOUS  how many times have you heard somebody cry about field/town ack downing them? Maybe it`s just me but flying at the most 3 miles from our base with 10 to 15 other guys waiting to jump the first con in sight isn`t much fun. Then all you hear is  " you stole my kill or  hey i got the asst.  wtf?" Then i fly 10 more miles see a con or 2,let them pass(since i know we got 15 guys waiting for them)Fly 5 more miles and suddenly theres the same thing. 15 enemy cons waiting in a pack. So i fly in drop on a target with 1 bomb or 2 maybe hit 3 ack with rockets.Climb out pass the field then turn and fight. Usually downing a enemy or 2 then rtb and most often then not end up killin the cons i passed on the way in since all our guys r slow from circling n hugging 3 miles out from our base. As for me not responding to the last post i generally just throw out my frustrations and see what others say,not that it really matters,but the old lady`s not hear for me to yell at!!

If they wernt close to the base trying to vulch, they wouldn't have to worry about field ack killing them. The only legit complaint about ack is from CV's IMHO. I dunno how many times I've upped at a base that was being vulched by tards from a CV only to fight them back until they hide in CV ack. That is the lamest of the lame and the only time you will ever catch me with bombs is if tards from a CV have ticked me off and I decide to sink it.

Ok, how come every fighter guy who comes to a baser can`t carry 1 bomb.Its easy to drop if you need to fight,or simply drop it on anything that would be useful then fight.I always carry atleast 1 bomb or a few rockets,not saying I am the greatest or anything but I do alright. :rolleyes:

Even in the A-20 I normally carry zero ords, its a question of mind set. On those rare occasions I have a specific intention I'll carry ords to accomplish the task. Lusche asked for some help a few nights ago to capture a base. I grabbed 8 x 500 and dropped them on the VH (or in the general area there of :D) and then got down to business...in the end I went in but not before I got 8 guys who were attempting to defend harass the GV attack.

Normally even in an A-20 I'm just looking for a fight. I dont care about our real estate, their real estate or who's "Winning". To be honest I really dont care if I "win" my fight. I'd rather lose a good 1 on 1 then land 6 or 7 tardlets/vulches...

Now when/if 71 Squadron goes "digital dirt" (and we do occasionally) I to anything needed from fly the goon to hauling iron, same thing if I elect to help out someone elses plan. The simple truth is that the "strategic war" has no real value beyond providing targets for the rest of us.

HQ Raider Hunters

What's wrong with that one ROX?  That's really the only time you get to use the ME-163.  In fact, I may try to find some HQ Raiders after work.  Still haven't flown the 163 in game yet and I can't wait.  :D

Until the ship guns are blasted and broken.  Seeing folk vulched on a CV and especially hearing howls of bewilderment is painful.  Funny in a painful way.

Doing touch and go's off an enemy CV is always a good time

D9 have 20 min fuel w/o DT. 5-7 min to target area average, 5-7 rtb average. That'll leave ya 6-10 min combat time over enemy area w/o DT. To carry egg in D9 you have to sacrafy the DT O.o. Just doesn't compute omg ! brain overload  :confused:

I don't take them because I always have a little fear in the back of my mind that the ground crew may have accidentally strapped a nuke under there instead of a regular bomb and when I drop it the whole map will splode instead of a few of those dangerous buildings.

Absolutely, positively nothing wrong with it.  I was just listing the many different facest of the game.

I spent a whole tour ones in a TA-152 popping HQ Raiders.  I had a lot of fun and landed a lot of scalps.

Please scroll up an re-read.

Thanks!
