The Bomber Class - Opinion: Bombers are just too bad atm

[Caelumaresh]

Every faction with an own gunline should get their own bomber guns imho

This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

Remember when you could put codenames on the Roc, which was basically a slightly slower eagle with a SNAC?

Yeah let's leave bombers where they are.

Jack the problem dosen't lie on bombers, but this(no offense):

Code:

IMG EMERGENCY CHAT:
Jack Henderson  IMG|: ===== OC raid incoming, likely
Jack Henderson  IMG|: T37
Jack Henderson  IMG|: Fighters. :)

Gondoros  George: =====OUTCAST BOMBER AND GUNSHIP IN TAU23 =====LOG FIGHTERS AND BOMBERS======

Gondoros  George: ====CORSAIR CAPS IN OMEGA 3 =====LOG BOMBERS=====:D
Gondoros  George: ======LOG FIGHTERS ======

Jack Henderson  IMG|: We start gathering in O3 ==== LOG fighters and TS

Jack Henderson  IMG|: escorts in Omegas. ;)
Jack Henderson  IMG|: ====== OMEGA 3, FIGHTERS / BOMBERS needed: 

Jack Henderson  IMG|: guys! IMG Fighters! O3. We need you!

I know you have a code of honour on PVP battles but you really have to start logging gunboats to cover your bombers.

i agree with some points like to buff bomber speed, guns and their gunspeed or maybe the ahriman refire rate and that they are very bad against fighters...

but with two waran you i could take out every gb easy


what about a very heavy bomber class... that could change the bomber warfare during big fights...

basearmor about 50k
medium transport shield (50k)
same speed and maneuverability as waran or some
3 bomberguns (2 supernova 1 asuras) and 6-8 normal bomberguns forward
CD
Mine
CM
powercore 15000/75000 (for fast recovery)
cargo 270
bots 250/250
very high price - 250mil empty

Nah, really i think bombers are good, you just need to learn the technique to flying them well, and youll be able to destroy almost anything in one, but a buff in speed wouldnt be nice, as it would make then almost impossible to hit in a large ship!, but the very heavy bomber above could work!!!

Having troubles in hitting bomber in a capital ship would be a good thing. It would force players to actually cooperate and not to throw their caps mindlessly into battle.
