Played a game the other night vs allies, they had the plane with bombs(Bert) I think. It seemed to go down quick after it bombed my reapers. I was able to react to it with the Rattler, and then attk. with it again and reapers during my turn. Berti went down in flames. I want to by the planes but wonder if they are worth the points. I should say that this was my opponents first time flying one. Did he pick on the wrong units since I was able to shoot back? Also, what is the advantage to fly at low altitude? It seems that you should always fly high.
