You can bomb in training. Just set the ground to enemy, and you can target them and bomb them while avoiding the enemy in the air. I do it in training mode all the time.. I have even done it with the B-17. Kinda fun to play around with it in training..

Didnt know that. Thanks!

That really is a good tip, I hadn't noticed that either.

I guess I'm missing something or misunderstanding, I don't see "ground" on the enemy settings, situation or altitude.
Are you on 360 or PS3?

I need to correct myself.

Set "Anti Aircraft Artillary" to "Hostile"...

You can then bomb the ground targets, and ships...

I used the wrong terminology.. Sorry about the confusion..

Gotcha, that's just as good. Would be nice to find some aircraft parked near a hangar wouldn't it?

i think what he means is that you can set the flak as hostile or friendly well on the 360 it does anyway

err seems i forgot to read the rest of the thread just ignore this post brain burp lol

I found it, and I enjoyed it. The 1000 pounders do a little "too" much damage to make them last, but it will be very good rocket and small bomb practice.

I have my box on a 37" HDTV, on 1080p mode, but sit about 12 feet from it, and my eyesight isn't as good as it used to be, but not gonna trade my old lazy ass recliner for a closer view, lol...

You definitely need to get on with us in the game nights we've been having. Most of us are the older crowd looking to have fun with the game. We try to balance out the teams as best we can, not overly competitive.

Played around with the B-17 on Canterbury. Set up 6 BF-109's on veteran and the B-17 handled them just fine. Edited to get the landing/take off right.
I know most will LOVE the music, but here it goes. LOL

Damn you and your music! I've only listened to it for 2 mins (you caught me, I didn't finish the movie) and it keeps replaying in my head!
