GUNS Balance Questions and Concerns v1.2
Queso:
Flying a flak, lumberjack, merc Galleon last night, I can tell you that they are still viable options. Try bringing some lesmok rounds. The only reason you see so much hwacha is because it's easy and effective at making you not die. It seriously lacks killing power though, which is good.
Machiavelliest:
I will vouch that the damage bleed into the hull from a dead balloon is what really makes the Lumberjack a monster.
Sammy B. T.:
Not to discount Ofi's new gunner (someone who showed a lot of skill with a new gun) I think it worth mentioning that Ofi's most recent example came from a three v three on desert scrap against a rather unorganized team. I was on one of the enemy galleons and we were functionally stationary capping the point and getting hit by clouds and frankly our engineers weren't really that good (more concerned with shooting the merc than repairing half the time. i was gunning at the time)
Three v three, especially those of the CP variety is where the lumberjack shines as it is easy to use it and not have to worry about being directly charged. If the goal had been kill the enemy as opposed to take the target, there would have been a vastly different scenario.

How about the light mortar! Not to mention the flare, the flamethrower, the heavy flak, the artemis the rocket carousel...

The Mercury Field Gun. Also the Lumberjack only has an effective range of 2km with an exceptional gunner.

I'm the guy he's talking about. New? I'm not terribly new. I played a few weeks ago and failed, but I got serious last week once college let out.
I'm the WORST shot on the crew. That's why I'm good at being an engineer. I was SHOCKED at how easy the lumberjack is. I was laughing so hard when I put lesmok in. Seriously. Lumberjack is the easiest gun a person can use, and it's the deadliest.
