I'm here to tell you guys who always seem to ask me how I manual dive bomb or
are wanting to learn.

The Pro's Of manual dive bombing:

-hitting border humpers
-Team killing (whoopie!!! :P)
-helps hit turning ships
-can hit ships when not at maximum altitude(to dodge aaw)

Con's
Hard to learn
Auto can be better to hit cvs or non moving ships


Step one:

Load planes like normal. Some people think that there is a trick when you load your
planes - their isn't. This may seem obvious, but is important - only dive bombers can
dive bomb.


Step Two:

Wait for your planes to reach maximum altitude then Right click where you want
them to go around the enemy. Wait for them to cricle.



Step Three:

HOLD Semicolin button. (the button that looks like this ===> ; )

Step Four:

LEFT CLICK Where you want to dive.



Step Five:

Hit the period button before your divebombers get shot down and when you think
you are above the enemy ship.

(Couldn't get a screenie of this as it was too hard to press ; . and print screen
button at the same time. If someone has a screenie of this please pm me it.

Step Six:

Have fun trying this at the beginning as it is very hard but once you get the hang of
it it is very easy and a powerful move to show off with when trying to join a fleet.
I use it on BB's because CV's are generally easier to auto dive bomb.

Recommendations are welcomed, and thanked in advance.

Best Regards,

Stimba

I think you should mention how manual DB is extremely useful for bombing targets
that throw smoke screens up

It's a great guide; however, I'm still confused since my DBs only dive when I hit right
click, and not left =/
