I just thought I would put this up here, in case anyone knew of any bomber pilots who might be interested.

We were actually just in the test client last night doing some final testing with 17 or so players spawned in. I flew bombing runs on all three countries from around 1km and racked up the kills!

Due to some amazing work by the Developer Frisbone and the whole QA team, STO Bombs have finally made their way into WWIIOL after many years of asking and wanting them by bomber pilots. Through a ton of testing, they seem to work great and should get bombers off the deck and up with some altitude. AAA gunners will have to re-home their skills to hit targets that are higher than usual and fighter pilots may start needing to look above them for incoming bombers.

My question, who will be the first bomber pilot to get infantry kills from 6km or above?!

What is going to happen when everybody Cries about getting Killed by bombs.


I'm not sure the supply chain Globally will be able to handle the extra demand during the pandemic?

Then they need to make friends with the Air guys for some protection. They've been asking about extending the range of the bofors and other AAA guns already.

I'm also looking into extending the bombsight limit of 6km, so that should make things a bit more fun bombing up at 7-8km whenever needed.
