ADMIN NOTICE: 3 deaths rule

[pipsqueak]

Okay every one that is complainging that the bomber is too powerful..... go buy one. Sheesh... if it is that powerful and uber strong, why arent you flying one? who is stopping you ? Its is really strange to see so many people wailing about the bomber while sitting in their shiny Massive Battleships.

I fly a bomber and have done decent against fighters and capships, and I have died too. When I first started, I killed a few xenos and bought the slipstream at a Lane Hacker base. When I came back to NY and a RH bomber challenged me to a duel. I had 2 Adv delibs and 4 high refire lvl 7 guns (dont remember what, vassagos I think). I agreed.

Granted, I am not a very good fighter, but once I got behind him after the first pass in Connecticut , I shot at his arse off. In a minute or two, he had lost all his batteries and nono botts. Poor guy ended up hiding in that hole in Newhaven station to regen his shield. You think bombers are too fast ?, try using a slipstream, Wyrm or a Avenger. These light fighters are too fast to get hit and if the bomber dont get them in the first pass, he has to run. Unless you think going to turret view in the RH bomber is a good idea, if you approach a bomber from behind a certain way, only one lvl 5 turret is facing you.
Remember, if you are in a fight against a bomber in a fighter. The bomber is the puncer and you are a counter puncer. One hit from him and its lights out for you, but speed is on your side. Keep chipping away till it dies.

Good Luck and Pix out.
