Bombers vs. VHFs

[Rudo]

i like playing freelancer due to the PVP aspects, not just the RP aspects of this server. and suffice to say, disco wouldnt be where it is if it wasnt for the perfect mix of RP and PVP (even though it is often tipped towards pvp between those who are ignorant of the forums)
Again, freelancer is restricted heavily (even though many barriers have been broken by all the modders working on various mods), and introducing a special bomber only mine means its mountable on anything that has a mine slot. it will be abused heavily, and quite frankly, i honestly dont want to see another rule springing up becuase some idiot decides to mount bomber-only epic mines on a LF and exploit the game.

1-2 with a razor+ supernova isnt easy, and not everyone can do it, becuase yes, it does require a lot of skill to do. but if a fighter falls for that, i call him stupid, because first of all, a fighter shouldnt be jousting a bomber head on anyway, and if (s)he does decide to joust head on, (s)he shouldnt do it shieldless, or without strafing while jousting. there are many techniques to out-maneuver a bomber, only difference is not many people use them.

again, wait for 4.85.

That's why I said it takes skill on the part of the bomber pilot and poor planning on the part of the VHF pilot.

Thing is, if said bomber pilot is good enough it only takes one screwup on the part of the VHF pilot. In a fight between a VHF and a Bomber, the bomber has a lot more room for error. That's my only gripe, it's not a call to tone down the bomber as a platform so much as it is to simply make the bomber's main damage come from ordinance rather than a cannon.

Basically my idea is for bombers to do something crazy, like - oh, I don't know - use bombs.
