You are leaving a lot on the table if you are just ground pounding. You simply gain a lot from kills, it’s well worth learning how missiles work. You will get to top tier one day so why not try learning a bit now?
Going for ground pounding with nukes is very viable.

There was the advance gamemode for tanks a few years ago. You had one attacking team push forward on the Port Novo map, while the defenders were tasked with holding a cap point, and if not, a cap point would show up further back.

Nothing for air, but it would be interesting to see.

idk it be fun tho i mean the carrier has a whole task force defending it like bunch of USS DDs while US DD launch like tomahawks with nukes and russian planes launch nukes back and the F14 and MIG 31 both are busy intercepting

i want a cold war hell mode basically chaos everywhere

Where my 4 hour gang at?

Will it even be possible to get the B52 with queue times like this?

I guess small portion of feedback I can give right now is about the 3 strong radars connected to the further back Air Defense system such as the Patriots and that is that you can shoot at them and you can see the parts getting blacked out but they don’t get destroyed, I would argue those radars would not survive getting sprayed by 23mm cannons and the game does recognize that yet they don’t get destroy and somehow still work making it so you can only bomb them but again conventional bombs seem extremely weak on this mode for some reason, I also tried to tackle the HAWK clusters which are fairly packed and close together with two FAB 1500M bombs but I got 9 “hits” with those massive bombs landing perfectly on the cluster, I get you guys want us to use the nukes but the conventional bombs seem hilarously underwhelming on this mode for some reason besides SPAAs and short range AA intercepted all the bombs flawlessly too

LMAO, yeah

So I just go in and sling missiles at whtvr moves?

Just get the russian bomber at this point

Works very well for me, people are not very good at dodging missiles in this event.

there isnt enough nuke drops per match make artificial ones

Personally I hope that we see Buk-M1/ItO-96 added as playable vehicles sometime soon with their appearance in this gamemode, I’d love to see a playable Hawk as well even if that means stationary launchers tbh. Could be interesting to use.

I mean didn’t devs think about this? They just made an event enjoyable for high tier players and left low tier players on the their mercy

All you gotta do is run IR all aspect and catch them slipping other than that close the gap

should I take rockets or bombs?

Yes, absolutely. Check out the reply I made just above 😉 You REALLY want to setup CCRP. Especially for dropping nukes once you build up enough Spawn Points.

Go into a test flight and try it out. Plenty of premium planes that are high enough to test with. My reply with links to video instructions: Nuclear Thunder! - #3528 by SilentTracker

The Premium F-4S is probably a good one to test. As you will be using the built in F-4E to drop nukes anyway: F-4S Phantom II | War Thunder Wiki

Yeah you get an absurd advantage as a high tier player, and that is not even counting the difference in experience. Low tier players need better default planes for sure.

I am a bit short on time as I cannot play the game all the time, just thought the bombers look cool and I should not miss them

Cannot watch tutorials rn :(

It says, every stage needs 7700 mission points, this shouldn’t take a lot of time, right?

Like 1 hour of gameplay?
