2 bombers would beat 3 battleships though.
And Im not saying use nothing but bombers, just saying they are good ships that should be used more. The only reason they arent is because of the slow speed I think. I dunno, something may change my mind later on, but as of now I think any good fleet should employ a few of these badboys (if you have researched the right things and have increased the speed).

15k more crystal and 2.5k more duet... how is that outrageous? You get a ship that specializes in attacks on defenses. Its really the rapid fire factor on defenses that make this ship valuable. Its not the end all ship, nobody is saying that, but for an attack on a planet that has moderate defenses, you would want bombers with you. The fewer rounds you take to destroy the defense, the fewer rounds the defense has to destroy you.

Bombers Are Good For A Certain Line Of Play. But if You Had a Few thousand Bombers it Would Take a Chunk Out Of Your Deut Which Could Be Used On Attacks , Research Etc ... a 5:1 Ratio For Metal And Crystal is Good For Me ..
its All A Matter Of Opinion ... Not Saying Bombers a Bad Ship Just Saying Its Not The Ship For ME
