Hello CV drivers, are you tired of having all your DBs shot down by AAW. Do your
TBs get too close to the target and get AAWed to death as well? Well this guide is
for you. :)

First for Manual DBing. your planes need to be fairly close to the target area. Press
the "Semi-colon/Colon"button and left click on the spot you want the bombs
dropped. A small green circle with the flight number of your bombers will appear.
Start spamming the "Period" button to have you planes just drop the bombs without
even diving into the AAW.

Now for TBs. **Disclaimer** This should only be done when targetting front-line
ships. Press and hold or spam the "Comma" button to lower your planes. Right click
in the direction you want to aim them and simply release the torps with the "Period"
button.

The main advantage of this technique is that you target will often have no clue that
he is being bombed and therefore take no evasive action. This is also the only way
to bomb if you have lowered your Bombers to avoid AA walls without raising them
back to the original height. Hope this helps a little bit
guys. Any other input is gladly accepted.

Excluding adalbert's guide, other guides are now listed in appropriate subsections listed
above. This guide in particular is under CV guides.

This is still helpfull after 3 years, the DBers time this times really too late and what do
CVs? Nothing helpfull, however the FTW's CVs are helpfull but there are some
Bomberwhore CVs that still miss -.- not really helpfull.

However, thanks, not for me, but for others.

if ur bombers are somewhat aaw immune thin i would suggest lowering your tbs to a little
less than half way in altitude and when your tbs are close holding the ; button and right
clicking your target. your bombers will auto target the bb and then spam . to release torps.

Manual Torpedo

You mention only doing it for front line ships. I think it works better on rear echelon
because they arent expecting attack. Another thing to consider it that you may
WANT enemy to worry about an incoming bomb attack to simply add distractions. He
will spend time scanning for attack or evading, instead of his own attacks.
