Multi-pilot assult

Feb 09, 2005 Dark_Phoenix link
Many WWII bombers and attack aircraft have 2 pilots. Someitmes its a weapons officer, other times is a additional set of eyes tand a gun in the tail. I think that it would be really cool, especially as the cap ships come into play, to have a large ship, heavy armor, but a little slow, as an attack fighter, perhaps even a torpedo bomber. Something that could be specialised to take on cap ships with large lumbering long range torps.

If not, I would love to have a ship with a tail gunner or turrent or some sort.

has been mentioned before a few times and for me would be a welcome addition to the fleet.

I agree Johnhawl, group flight, the group leader would do the flying after the group formed up and locked in position.

so if i kill this ship and its carrying 5 people do i get 1,000 combat experience points?

if the ship is Serco, but it has a UIT gunner with high Itani faction on it, and an Itani kills the ship in Itani space, will the Itani lose a bunch of Itani faction?

IIRC, the devs are planning to make frigates multiplayer-usable (not necessarily required).

Lets take this discussion to an interesting point then. It has been discussed before... but Again, I saw the "spectator" ship in the buy ship screen, it wouldn't let me buy it, and I had to cancel to get a new one.

Are the devs watchin us? o.O

Sorry I did do a search and did not find the topic, I'll try a more diverse battary next time.

has the idea of a torpedo bomber been mentioned to bring the problem with the torps under control?
