I swear...we need the Nuke!
« on: June 11, 2004, 03:28:28 AM »
The Nuke would be the greatest way to break-up the same 'ole, same 'ole MA mentality that will stink up AH2.

I laugh as I imagine 4 sectors being totally wiped out by one B-29 & a Fat Man.

Just make the Nuke cost...ohhhh...4,000 bomber perks.  IT'D BE WORTH IT!!!  :lol

Please, HTC...bring the Nuke.  :)  

Don't announce it.  Just show up in the MA one day and drop the damn thing.  :cool: :D :lol

I would rather see bridges and dams we could bust, like the dambuster Lancasters.

And bridges to bomb and rocket  Player controled trains with gunner positions might be cool targets and to drive 'em too.

Hehe, nukes might be fun to drop, but probably not any fun for most of the other players.  Too easy to model...a big bright light that blinds (pilot wounds) every player in a four section grid, and renders a base or two untenable.  Would make the game boring after awhile if it happened a lot.:)

I think it might be interesting to have player-constructed V1 or V2 sites possible at Vehicle Bases.    Say a player has to air drop 'vengenance weapon' supplies at a vehicle base, then constructing of the launch site commences, first the launch rail/tower appear, then later a missile appears sitting atop the launcher.   After this, every 10 minutes or so, a missile is launched at the nearest enemy airfield/city/town.    Might be fun to chase down and strafe a Doodlebug in a Tiffie or Spit XIV, or use Mossies or B-26s to flatten a V1/V2 site under construction.

Nukes would turn me right off the game. There's a whole political dimension there. If we get nukes, I'm outta here

i posted this same post about 4 or 5 months ago and got mixed results, in the end nukes, although cool would not be practical.

imagine the nuke hord!

now fire bomb's (wasnt sure how to spell incinerary) would be practical if ht could make the fire spread.

on another note:

more gv's would like to see some american, russian and british tanks in here, i know what the ah "this is a flight combat sim guys are saying" but the fact is that there are gv's in the game and they are used by plenty of paying customers, and at the least we should have one of each of the main battle tanks from the alies side, ok mabey not the brit's:eek: those floating tanks they came up with for d-day kinda sunk for the americans useing them

I can't think of any addition that I would want less than a Nuke.

Sikboy,

How about replacing all the beer at the OC with light beer? :)

bridges and dams would be interesting. All bases "down stream" literally or in supply sense would lose resupply capacity for a given time period. there would have to be gunnery positions all over to make a well defended strat.


In fact i think we should treat all strats like bases and be able to take up gunnery positions in those too - but that's a side issue.

Sorry, written sarcasm doesn't work that well without context.
