Title: would it be...
Post by: Darkage on March 01, 2001, 03:38:00 pm
Would it be efective for bommbers to replace the gun turrets in to missile turrets
and arm them whit phirana missiles?

what do you think of that idea?

Just make sure it doesn't fire too rapidly - otherwise it just won't be fair  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

I guess it could be quite dangerous, seeing as it wouldn't run out of ammo.

yep (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

This is going to take some serious firepower to take out  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Better make them in wings of two instead of four.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Good grief....that's significantly tougher than any Shivan design.

Post by: Setekh on March 05, 2001, 02:38:00 am
No escort required. Damn that's nasty.

Post by: Darkage on March 05, 2001, 08:37:00 am

Or you could put beams on it instead...

Post by: Bobboau on March 05, 2001, 11:31:00 pm
you can limet the number of munitions on a turret, and I have made a bomber with a beamturret on it and it is a pain to use becase you have to free it constantly.

You'd have to have a beam-free-all in every mission it's in, right?

Post by: Bobboau on March 06, 2001, 02:09:00 am
and you wouldn't be able to use waves.

Really? Why?
Title: would it be...
Post by: Shrike on March 06, 2001, 03:52:00 am
Because they'd appear, but they wouldn't have beam-free-all

I supposed you could do some heavy duty SEXPing, but is it really worth it just to see pretty lights?
