Why I respect the bomber...

[Marcus Lindberg]

If people want their fighter to be able to own a bomber in every situation, even though the bomber pilot has much more skill than you, than you must also be willing to allow the bomber to own a battleship in every situation, simple as that.

Ok yeah I agree with the rest of the stuff you said, but that part I quoted there is the wrong thinking. Yes bombers are meant to take down battleships, but VHF's are meant to take down bombers, not the other way around. The way you said it, you made it sound like bomber's are meant to take down everything.

Heres the thing, Bombers should never win over fighters. EVER. I dont care if its "rare". VHF's are meant to take out bombers. Currently, 2 VHF's cannot kill two bombers fast enough before it kills the BS. That is not how it should be. This is why fighter's need access to weapons with 1,000 M/s shots so it is far harder to a bomber to keep concentrated on the capital.

If that happened, I guarantee you, VHF's will become all the craze to take down gunboats. Why? You would have VHF's have 6 improved debbies on them, while you have another VHF with magma's (or archengels wtv) that destroy the hull of the GB. GB's can find it hard to target VHF's already because of their maneuverability, and now you wil see a couple of VHF's take down entire GB's. At this point, GB's will only be able to take down bombers, and only if there 1 bomber as Nighthawk said, this would virtually destroy the GB and no one would use them anymore. We don't want that, since the VHF's at this point would ALSO be able to take down bombers, thus, pirates won't have anything good enough to other than VHF's. Oh but guess what, at that point, since VHF's can't use SNAC's, transports will be able to run away easily and actually not get pirated. This would anger the pirate community.

Although, speaking from an LPI perspective, this would be awesome!
