Post by: Jonzynator on August 30, 2010, 04:31:25 PM

Just a plane old p-38 with a twist, you can call in artillery. Just uses the forward gun sight to line up the artillery with your target

Neat idea :)

One thing though, you might want to rename your loadouts. It seems you have 50 shoots for every arty piece, so 10 x 75mm etc doesn't really apply.

Perhaps some enterprising modder would do something similar with the T-6 Texan. I imagine it would also make an excellent arty plane. Maybe put a grease pencil circle or crosshair on the canopy where you want the rounds to go.

Interesting idea, but wouldn't the 'droop snoot' be a better option for this?

Hmmm...not sure how to call in the arty. Plane loaded in just fine but can't seem to call in that utter devastation that I love so much!!

Weird! Still can't trigger the arty barrage! Machine guns work but that's it.

Well, I dont know how I missed this so long ago but this is fun. :) The arty is triggered by hitting your gun #two twice. She's great for anti shipping and it works perfectly in my DBW 1.7 Thanks Jonsey. :)
