Bombers rule the universe again...
Re: So nothing has changed...
I can reduce bomber points again if you want, but let's wait a little longer to see how this works out.

How about removing bombing and making it a L5-feature only

Bombers will rule if they are left uncontested by a strong fighter presence, pretty simple really.
Re: So nothing has changed...
true, but getting to cruiser often is easier in a bomber cuz planets dont run away.

Re: So nothing has changed...
Bombers have always been an interesting conversation point in the game.
When the playerbase was big, i dont think it was so much of an issue as there were plenty of fighters about and the bombers only really came into their own at a higher level because they dindt get any bonuses from shooting ships. (I think I remember it that way. I am going way back to the early betas (6-12 or so) ).
We are never going to find the right balance for them because everyone has a different opinion on them.
I dont think that removing bombing until Level 5 is practical or will work.
To make bombing more difficult and tricky means we need to recruit more players/get the old players back. Bigger legions = more fun.
Bring back the 100 players per team and blobs that are 30-40 ships!

I'm playing the current beta and the fact that straight after the little roids-battle all HW's turned another one's colour just stinks.
When is this going to be on facebook anyway?

And porting to FB would boost numbers considerably
