Default Re: Torpedo Bombers and Dive Bombers - Which Worked Better?

Quote:
The reason why I ask is because I have a game (Battlestations: Midway), and the rule of thumb is always send torpedo bombers against ships, never dive bombers. When a dive bomber is used, the bomb looks like it launched smoke and did nothing else when it hits a ship, and it rarely does any damage.
Unless your facing Destroyers or Light Cruisers, then using torpedo bombers is just a waste.
I once sunk a Destroyer with a fighter squadron!
