Huh reminds me of the artwork by BoogalooFoxBoy , I’m surprised you haven’t put the gun on the bottom of the broom, or maybe on top for easy access- like the war-brooms of that artist. I’m actually wondering- wouldn’t a broom-rider be more useful lower in the air? Maybe to try to stop infantry when they go over the top? Or try to keep the enemy in their bunkers after a bombardment to make it easier for a wave of allied infantry behind them? Or maybe as stealthy night trench bombers?

Could they work with modernized cavalry? I’ve become quite interested in this cavalry used in eastern and Southern Europe during WWI- how given the right environment away from stagnant trenches they could prove quite effective. WWI is just so wonderfully wacky to study and as an aesthetic but Centum europe takes all of the attention. I wish people could hear more about guys like these: youtu.be/uhGtMBVc0iY

It’d be interesting to see them as part of WW1’s “flying circuses”- supporting colorful biplanes. Though I could also see them in much darker roles- like the german WWII propaganda poster- “ Der fiend sieht dein licht! Verdunkeln!”- where you have a person on top of a flying vehicle throwing bombs wherever they see light. Isn’t Mustard gas, and the other gases used in WWI heavier than air? One could totally go all dark & gothic with WWI witches.
