Actually, no, they never were able to fit torps, unless you somehow managed to get a heavy launcher on to it...which, no offense, I doubt you did. They could hold the 1 cruise missile...which was quite ridicolously overpowered, truth be told.
Personally, I have no clue on what they're going to do, I just *hope* it'll bring back the bombs. The thought was cool.

Yeah it was only really the Claw I think that could fit a heavy launcher (and it was pretty gimped as a setup with it, although fun  )
I'm in agreement
Ship with no bombs != bomber

I think TomB's "" comment was to indicate his lips are sealed on this one, Obriously getting released as some storyline event.

I'm betting it has something to do with that amarr business in Misaba being guarded.
More likely though, it will be something like 'jovian diplomat spontaneously combusts, collect the parts and win a prize!'
Oh, they already did that...

From the screenshot earlier in the thread the bombers look to be a real let down. Yes i should wait till i see them, but it doesn't look good barring some awesome special ability.. like special modules or firing while cloaked.
A plain old kestral could easily take down that elite in the screenshot.

MINES i want MINES that do summat decent rather than pop and look pretty.
/me reminds himself of a friend who planted over 200 mines outside a station in empire during a war then watched them all go off when an enemy thorax undocked
looked pretty didn't even scratch the guys armour =/

Thats what i had in mind. Also I bet this one is a tech II cruiser, seriously lacking on those...Then it wouldnt have to have a bonus to sensor recalibration time because you dont have to lock anything. As for skills required im guessing
Covert Ops 4
Electronics Upgrades 5
Cruiser 5
Spaceship command 5
along with specifics for stealth bomber and most likely w/e weapon type will be used.

The smartbomb concept would also be really cool idea. I hope it's something like that!

so if it is smartbombs (which I'm not convinced as we've seen other bombs as mentioned a couple of pages ago) do you want reduced fitting on grid, bigger burst radius, bigger damage, faster cycling time? Something else?
Stealth bombers to me bring up the image of a single massive payload.. one drop then a rearm (reload) So maybe a bonus to fitting seige launchers but with a penalty to firing speed (like 300%) or something.

Stealth eh? So instead of being invisible it is simply confusing to radar and the like.
So that would mean it gets a bonus to ECM Burst range and intensity?

A corp mate has a BB with torps still fitted, a true collectors item, shame hed get banned if he ever used it.
Anyhow, the bombers youd expect to be on sisi but arnt because they are still being "balanced" (made boring and un-useable in pvp) i dont expect them to see them on TQ anytime soon, mearly that oveur was yanking everyones chain.

Hmm.. why not just give it a bonus.. to fit bomber launchers/guns
Each launcher/gun could fit 1 unit of ammo in it and its base dmg would be 800+skills.
And the reload would take lets say.. 2 minutes?
Id love a hit&run ship

Perhaps make them fit one or two BS sized wepons...sort of a Kestrel with one or two cruise/siege launchers or a Inquisitor with one-two tachyons...
