' Wrote:You have about twenty minutes before two bombers can take down your shiny cap VIII battleship. think about what you type. And if two players take twenty minutes to down one player, I think that you have enough time to shoot them down.
I fully do not agree with this.
I do not how is possible to for 2 bombers to take down cap 8 BS.
We were training with 3 bombers on cap 7 Mako.
And all bombers were pretty skilled.
and it took us half hour to bring him down.
Several people can confirm that.
Pilot in Mako was pretty good with razors so it was lot's of dodging,but my point is that 2 bombers can't take cap 8 BS in 20 mins.
Ohh and I seen many times fighter escorts being useless against bombers.
Imagine what fighters have to do to kill bomber:bust shields,hit with razor at least 2 times in row.since one MR shot on bomber with max armor upgrade tooks half hull.Off course he has regens,so it takes even more time until all regens are spended.and that's only for one bomber.
and while escort is trying busting bombers shield and aiming with minirazor 2,3 bombers can spam snacs on caps all the time.
I have seen this many times,and I still believe as Kelt said bombers will take cap down before then escort takes bombers.
Only exception is when bombers get heavy outnumbered as Dashiell said.
