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.

Due to the large number of brand new CV drivers I figured I would ressurect this
post in hopes that it can help some of them stop losing their bombers so easily.

Press and hold for a bit, then let go and repeat seems to work fastest. No idea
why...

Do TBers reduce their altitude faster if you hold the Comma or if you spam it? Or... does
it not make any difference?

manual bombing for german keyboard layout:

the easiest way is to change your keyboard settings in windows to english then you can
pres the oe key instead of ; . you can also switch between the languages ingame with
hotkeys. here is a small how to for that (in german maybe later in english ;-))

Fuer Windows XP:
systemsteuerung -> Regions und Sprachoptionen -> Reiter Sprachen ->Bei Textdienste und
eingabesprachen auf details -> in der liste in der mitte sollten nun die sprachen english
und deutsch aufgelistet sein wenn nich englisch hinzufuegen -> unten bei einstellungen auf
tastatur -> dort kann man nun fue jede sprache eine tastenkombination eingeben. ich habe
strg + umschalt + 9 und strg + umschalt + 8 genommen. so kann man zum chatten ingame die
tastatur auf deutsch umstellen und zum bomben auf englisch

Hi all,
i have a question to all of you manual dber not using a german keyboard.
While choosing the target by left mouse and ";" does it often happen, that the target mark
dissapears and you have to target again?
Because on german keyboard you have to use the key comination "Shift" plus "," plus left
mouse to
choose target. And i would like to know wether the combo causes the dissapearing target
mark or not.

Thx for your answers :-)
