The more missions you fly in Bomber Crew will unlock more equipment, remember to return periodically to upgrade ensuring the crews continued survival, as their missions get harder. At first you have a limited selection of clothes to buy so you will have to buy everyone the starter flyer set, and if you can afford it a few winter jumpers. For example buying a winter jumper will increase that crewmembers thermal stat.
There are different pieces of equipment that you can buy that will improve a crewmembers stats. Once you have recruited your crew you will have to kit them out with gear before you can send them on missions, after all a military without a uniform is just a mob. Once you have picked a candidate the rejected ones will file out to be replaced with more for the still open positions, again giving you a better chance of getting the best candidate. You should pick the crewmember that has the best mix of all of these statistics combined, to ensure your crew is as efficient as possible. Looking at the three candidates going for the same position gives you the best chance of selecting the best candidate. The final stat is Survival, which is divided into two parts, land and sea, this determines the survival percentage of a crewmember that is forced to ditch or crash over that environment. Oxygen shows how long this crewmember can hold their breath in a low oxygen environment before they start to take damage. Thermal determines their ability to resist the cold weather at higher altitudes, if a crewmember get too cold they will not be able to function. Speed shows how fast they can move between stations on-board. Armour determines how much damage your crew can absorb. We will talk more about this later.Īs well as their levels they will also have five different statistics. They will also gain an additional skill at a certain level, depending on their primary role. You can review these candidates in the recruitment building, you will be faced with a number of candidates normally three for one position and the rest will be made up of candidates for any other open positions on your crew.Ĭoncentrate on the three candidates for the same job at the moment, each will have an overall level for their primary role on-board, as this level increase the crewmember will learn perks and abilities that will give you an extra advantage in combat.
You will get three options for each position in the seven-man crew. ‘A remarkable insight into the bravery, determination and skill of British Bomber Command crews during WWII’ Waterstones.At the beginning of the game there will be several empty spots on your crew, you will need to recruit people to fill those spots. ‘A fascinating and fast-paced account of the exploits of an Avro Lancaster bomber crew from 97 Squadron RAF’ The Herald. This book has a heart and soul’ The Times. ****************************** Reviews: ‘A sensitive account of the bomber’s life… Price has given the bomber offensive a human face. The drama and anxiety of individual missions – to Kassel, Munich and Augsburg as well as Berlin – is evoked with thrilling immediacy while the military events and strategic decisions that drove the RAF’s area bombing campaign against Nazi Germany are interwoven deftly with the narrative of the crew’s operational careers. From their earliest beginnings – in places as far apart as a Cotswold village and the suburbs of Sydney – through the adventure of training in North America and the dread and danger of the forty-five bombing raids they flew with 97 Squadron, David Price describes the crew’s wartime experiences with human sympathy allied to a secure technical understanding of one of the RAF’s most iconic aircraft. Gloucestershire-born bomb aimer Ken Cook, hard-bitten Australian pilot Jim Comans, Navigator Don Bowes, Upper Gunner George Widdis, Tail Gunner ‘Jock’ Bolland, Flight Engineer Ken Randle and Radio Operator Roy Woollford were seven ordinary young men living in extraordinary times, risking their lives in freedom’s cause in the dark skies above Hitler’s Reich. ****************************** The Crew, based on interviews with Ken Cook, the crew’s sole surviving member, recounts the wartime exploits of the members of an Avro Lancaster crew between 1942 and the war’s end. A moving tribute to the sacrifice and bravery of the fliers of RAF Bomber Command.
