Very nice. I like the new skills.
Questions on...
Precision Bombardier:
This skill requires the use of the Dropping Bombs optional rule.
When a bombing is declared, before showing planned manoeuvres, the player can say "short", "long" or nothing.
If "short", place the card directly against the bomber base instead of using a stall or a straight to move it forward.
If "long", after the bomb card is placed put the long side of a ruler against the front side of the bomb card and advance the bomb card by the ruler width by placing the front side on the other side of the ruler.
You can put a second ruler on the long side of the bomb card if you want to be sure to move it straight.
(affects the whole airplane, as long as the ace is not incapacitated)
I'm not sure exactly what the last line in parenthesis means? Does this mean it doesn't matter who on the plane does the bomb dropping, pilot, observer or other in a multi-crew plane? Would this apply also for Perfect Bombardier?
How does one acquire the bombardier skills? Scoring hits on targets or missions flown? Who on the plane would accumulate credit towards bombardier skills?
Sorry to be a pain but to me it isn't clear.
