*sheesh*

In post #8 Elmer fudd quotes you as though it was his original statement and says, "my bad". By default it looks like your "bad". It also looked like EF wasstating that he said someting under another name. It was just funny. Well.....maybe not. Nothing was meant or inferred by what I said. Please do not take it personal.

I just thought about this: If supply drops are going to be on the mini-map when 1.03 comes out there is going to be a mass of jet rapage. All you have to do is spot a supply drop at an enemy's base, drop bombs accordingly, then kablewee. There's going to be a lot of god fearing men on the battlefield.

Of course. Any plane that carries bombs can bomb bridges as well as commander assets. Bridges take about two full hits (unless you're flying the bomber; then one bombing run will puncture the whole bridge). Not sure how much the commander assets take but I believe it's 2-3 direct hits.
I usually don't bother with that since a Specop is faster and more efficient on destroying these.
In general, I don't see any problem bombing these in the home base, it's part of the game as long as you don't abuse it to intentionally kill troops in the base (if they were about to repair the asset, their mistake

).
As you can see, it is possible but hardly any pilot makes use of it so I wouldn't worry too much that this may change.
But if you ever see a bridge that needs to be blown up urgently, bomb it from now on.

Also, sometimes your commander tells his squads to destroy the enemy artillery, that's where a bombing run might come in handy if the specforce can't get close enough to the enemy assets.

I'm expecting that only "friendly" supply drops will be displayed on your 3D/mini-map.

You could still use them as bait. Drop a crate near an enemy base (where they can see it without the icon), watch them come running, apply liberal amounts of bombs.

i tried that all the time when i played commander, dropped a supply box near large group of spread out enemies then immediately dropped arty, didnt work most of the time cause very few people actually saw the supply box
