German Heavy Bomber

[Cthulhu]

That would be incorrect your right. The B-25 and B-26 are Medium Bombers. Both the B-17 and B-24 are Heavy Bombers. The B-29 is a Very Heavy Bomber and later there was even a Very Very Heavy Bomber.

So Chalenge, you favor the notion of giving 999000 a B-36 and about 8 dozen 20mm's???  I sure as Hell don't.   

[Chalenge]

I dont think the B-36 flew in the war but from my experience with 999000 he is not much harder to kill than any other bomber pilot... he just like to hug the ground making it harder to shoot him. A B-29 or B-36 wont be much good at ground level.

They didn't. It was a joke. Triple 9 can be a handful.

more than a couple of pilots on each of his run would probably have a different opinion. of course he only goes after the noobs

This would be a great heavy bomber with dive flaps to add to the game. It would see a great deal of use and be a nice upgrade at its factory stats.

Its speed, cannon defensive armament and anti ship missile load outs would be a great perk bomber.
And it would be a distinctive late war plane that has only been done by HTC that I know of.

Sakai, I read everything you posted, don't bother repeating it for my sake.

I think you've hit on something there Pongo.    Although no less absurd, the 177 would be a legitimate "LancStuka", although to be fair the damn things should randomly burst into flames if added to the game.

[Nemisis]

Well, maybe not randomly, but we would have to modle engine fires.

[Pongo]

No need to model any of its reliability problems. No others are in the game.

Both the Ki-84 and Mosquito have weaknesses modeled in the game as they both shed control surfaces at very low speeds compared to other aircraft, even 1940 Spitfire Mk Is and A6M2s.


Best way to deal with the He177A-5 would be to make it very fragile and prone to engine fires from damage.

I still think the Ju188A would be better than the He177A-5.

Ju188 would be cool, but I think the 177 es un poquito mas macho, but only if flown by Jack Lord. (sorry, old guy joke)
