Sometimes you do survive in a bombing raid

So maybe we can increase the bombers to maybe about 8 or make the bombs more powerful but I would like it if people prefer the option to have more bombers so it feels like an actual bombing rate instead of just being bombed by 5 bombers.

And anyone’s free to expand or improve on this idea

10 bombers, 5 following close behind the other 5 and dropping bombs on the same area for maximum effect, so the area is actually cleared not just a go to prone or get yetted zone.

Or. You call in a bombing raid and 50% of the bombs land outside the map 35% miss the target but 5-10 200lb bombs hit the rough area you asked for.

For historical accuracy of course.

Maybe I forgot to use the /s but you did say you wanted it to feel like a real bombing raid.

Yes more XP but if they can’t stop the bombers from getting through or dropping their payload the team will suffer on the ground and the enemy will overwhelm them and lose the match.

And one plane can’t stop 10 bombers half of them will get through and drop their payload

I use bombing raids as a way to elimate spawns in a general area

they block spawning from rally in the bombing area?

I don’t know all I know is they will destroy an unprotected spawn along with any buildable objects

12

No, they only block the use of artillery.

bombers are so overnerfed now I roll my eyes every time someone calling them instead of just spamming more effective arty. I think they can be buffed back but then locked to high tier radio operators and specific theatres (german side - stalingrad, soviet side - berlin, allies - tunisia, etc.) as arty+smoke OR bombers only unlock. and then to develop this further pacific maps can get naval bombardment for both sides instead

I do think it’s weird that we have different level soldiers with significantly higher costs and level up requirements but they don’t really get better abilities. Just a couple perk points and a PITA leveling system.
