Most unfair unit. Options

[Aro]

Nods Viper.

I just kept thinking is there any nod airborne unit stronger,
Strong as, or that can even hold a candle to the Orca Bomber?

No Of course not,
Because this unit is terribly unbalanced '''IMO'''
(Please notice the way i say IMO)

Heres why i think this::

1) Its actualy quite fast for a heavy bomber,
2) Its weapon is deadly to infantry, Vehicles and buildings,
Where as the banshee is only good against vehicles and Buildings.
3) Its Too cheap for what it actualy is.
4) It can do a large scale of damage with one Swoop
Where as the banshee needs all 3 swoops to do anything remotly decent.
5) In Groups theyre practicaly unstoppable.

I just wanted to say that...

"Banshees are actually more useful for taking out some strong structures (like the Construction Yard, War Factory, or Tiberium Refinery), because it needs just as much runs (and the same number of Banshees as you would when using Orca Bombers) to take them out. This means the Banshees actually would have 1 run left, which indeed usually isn't enough to take anything out, but this does mean you could take a strong building out needing less Banshees (though using more runs) than you would need if you were using Orca Bombers.
"

bittah is right, not only are they more effecient at destroying key tactical structures, but they are also significantly cheaper, and faster meaning they take less damage as well. The bomber was designed to attack small more heavily armored structures like helipads, barracks, missile silos, emps, and most importantly power plants. The problem though is that it was not balanced for its purpose and ended up being a best for defence against nods infantry units that come from underground. the bomber just fills the gap in gdis anti-infantry. as a base attacker it is impotent, they can't survive extended runs and require carefull navigation for best use. you cant really use it to bomb power plants either because the build speed is too fast rendering the ideal strategy against nod unacheivable. The bomber is just like alot of other gdi units in that they dont do anything very well, except for the specials. That all I have to say about the orca bomber really.
