General question about 1.05
« Reply #15 on: November 03, 2000, 02:41:00 AM »
Call me crazy but I thought that the He111 could carry torpedos.  Anyone else remember?  I know it carried V1s and the radio controlled bombs (name eludes me at the moment, I think Freisler?) but I could have sworn I saw pictures of the plane carrying torpedos.

The latest Pyro news update says that the control scheme for the carrier is not as a helmsman.  You go to the map and set waypoints for the fleet.

If multiple guys each set waypoints for the ship, the fleet listens to the guy with the higher rank (must be the new scoring/perk plane rank thingy).

Also, the first post about 1.05 by Pyro on the news board said "supply convoys" as well as carrier groups.  Also Seaplane tenders and PT boat tenders.  I'm guessing here, but logic tells me that these convoys are not for looks, but rather the mobile bases you can spawn PT boats, seaplanes (which is moot, since there is no seaplane...yet), and LVT aka Amtracks (amphibious tracked vehicles).  

These supply convoys are the "army bases" of the water.  Complete wiht a troop delivery vehicle.

Man o man, cant wait for the island hopping map. Or two task forces rolling into another. Now that would be awsome!

If the way points are based on system point ranking, mutiny should be modeled too.

I hate to think we're gonna be at the whims of the scorepotatos   (I bet base capture/ bombing becomes a much more saught after thing)

funked... that's fair but harsh.   I think that We should allow the 109T in the game.  They could simply add 1000 lbs to the 109E... Oops, no 109e..  Ok, 2,000 lbs to the 109F and cut the range 25%... Of course, since the germs had no carrier they would have to take off from land 900 miles from the fight.  Is it true that all ac carriers were based on the FW 190?

Hmm westy... A slower, heavier stook with an inline, water cooled engine flying over water?   Sure.   Maybe the sirens would scare off the enemy?

 I never meant to appear to say I wanted to fly it!  "Stuka" is synonymous with "Target"
