I picked this up on GOG.com a while back and it was pretty fun. It allows you to name not only your bomber but your entire crew. Members of the crew can die, get wounded, be captured, be promoted, win medals and so on. I thought that it could be fun to take ten FAN's on a campaign to bomb the crap out of occupied Europe. The crew positions are as follows and are first come, first served. Pilot: The Legend.
Co-Pilot: "Hollywood" Hawk Jefferson.
Navigator: Heartbreaker.
Bombardier: Sloth Spartan.
Radio Man: Gus Richlen.
Top Gunner: Senor Tyger.
Ball Gunner: Waffel113.
Right Waist-Gunner: Antihero.
Left Waist-Gunner: Demented.
Tail Gunner: Maijin Brad.One other important detail is the name of the bomber you'll be calling home while above those unfriendly skies. Suggestions are welcome and if there are a few, we'll have a vote on it. With all that said, I hope to see some sign-ups soon! See you up there. |

My grandfather served as a radio man in the Pacific during WWII so I want Radio Man.

You've all been added to your chosen positions. Any suggestions on a name for the bomber?

Bombardier and commander of "Sky Sloth" reporting for duty.
Edit: didn't realize we're all in the same plane. Maybe we can be "Sky High: The D'Lo Brown Tribute Bomber".

I'll be the Ball Gunner.
Now let's hope I end better than a certain poem from the WWII era...
And for a suggestion, I'm putting in the Yossarian.

I love how the last three spots left on the crew are the ones with the highest casualty rate  |

I'll be the Ball Gunner. Now let's hope I end better than a certain poem from the WWII era... And for a suggestion, I'm putting in the Yossarian. Not the poem but I like this Yeats poem: An Irish Airman Foresees His Death I know that I shall meet my fate Somewhere among the clouds above; Those that I fight I do not hate, Those that I guard I do not love; My country is Kiltartan Cross, My countrymen Kiltartan's poor, No likely end could bring them loss Or leave them happier than before. Nor law, nor duty bade me fight, Nor public men, nor cheering crowds, A lonely impulse of delight Drove to this tumult in the clouds; I balanced all, brought all to mind, The years to come seemed waste of breath, A waste of breath the years behind In balance with this life, this death. |
