' Wrote:Mini razor is alrighty... except the part where the gunboat razor is only half as powerful...
Since every faction will get their supernovas, and they are basicly the weapon that makes a bomber a bomber, we should stick to it's couse... But rather than anything nerf it's speed, to lower it's usefulness against fighters... At 200 speed perhaps rearly anyone could hit a fighter.
While I agree it would be nice, it would make gunboats being spammed again seeing as there are a lot of factions that use mostly or only fighters and bombers, and these bombers would now be much less effective than before.
True, but gunboat razor is hardly an antibomber weapon... So they would be untouched by the change... So much the better if a gunboat has 6 razors, great for you, you just plant your novas on their back...

I don't think anybody is taking into consideration the difficulty of bombing as it is. Ever tried jousting (not my idea! Stupid GB) a Liberty GB in a Barghest? It's flailing everywhere in a manner unnatural to ships that big.
IMG GB? Right. Get under it or over it (don't twist that) and you're golden. Otherwise, its a pancake with 5000 damage worth of turret facing you.
OC Dessie, again, pancake. Oh! And its especially lovely trying to bomb them while they're ramming every piece of dust in the Badlands and going from this angle: ____ to | all of a sudden. Totally ruins the shot, then you have the grave misfortune of the like, 12 second recharge time. During which you either make use of your weapons or hide behind a rock/piece of debris.
Gunboats, are tiny. Liberty ships especially are stupid-hard to shoot. WHOO! Cruiser the size of a mooring fixture! FTW! Kusari Destroyer? Incidentally, its only about 1/4 bigger than the GB. Also a kick in the nuts to try and bomb. Rheinland ships are like the IMG pancake only inverted. Gotta hit them from the side, but thats hard with all these idiots trying to dog-fight in cap ships.
Lets see... Oh! Rogue GB? Thats about half of a mooring fixture. More like a tube of toothpaste.
About the only easy ships to bomb are House Dreads/BSs, BH caps (thank Jazzy), and the Juggernaut. And the Battlestar.
The only thing I see on this that I have issue with is the supers with a range over 2k. That is also the max range of cruiser weaponry. Bombers are already pretty uber to cruisers.
Yup. Hitting a cruiser from over even 1k is only possible if he's not moving.
And that's his problem isn't it?

@Mogoo.. Bombing difficult... When you solo it yes! But when you have a friend... life becomes way easier... Say I have a Burghest, wanna get some Lib GB's?

Everytime I log on Skype, I get spammed by lots of messages concerning the supernova and I just don't have the time to do it myself so.. If there's anyone who wants the supernovas, contact me and I'll hand you the files and explain how to continue..
Nah, they won't make it in. I volunteered to do it already, but apparently it is redundant to have that many supernovas in, with the argument being that if they all do the same function then why not just have one. I argued against it, but it wasn't my decision, so...
