I’m very excited to dogfight with new-gen graphics with something that’s not as fast as a jet. Having a rear gunner is going to going to be equally awesome and no lock-on missiles. My favorite part of BF1942 was dropping free falling bombs on tanks and infantry. Do you think they will give secondary gunners bomb options? I read an article that before bombs the French would spill crates of metal arrows down on the enemy. It’s a carpet bomb of arrows! ---

I think they have separate bombers as an option, looking forward to all of this as well ---

Do you think they will give secondary gunners bomb options? I read an article that before bombs the French would spill crates of metal arrows down on the enemy. It’s a carpet bomb of arrows! I want a simple game with simple bombs. Not to many diiferent types of shells (for tanks) or bombs that are specific for specific situations. My knowledge of ww1 is very limited so I don’t know if this tactic was broadly used. If this bomb is specific a infantry only bomb than lobbing grenades out of plane is suffiecent. In a ww2 game I would suggest the following 1 - normal free falling bomb, good for inf, tanks, and ships. Good overall choice. No splash damage just as in bf43 2- torpedo. Targets only ships. Needs a certain angle to be dropped, speed, altitude aka skill. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8XYZoR9ABE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8XYZoR9ABE)
