[Sp4de]

Please bring the Willy jeep
Im serious.. that would be fun.. Maybe give it a purpose.. LIKE!! it can pick up downed pilots.. or something.. put a mg on it?  please..?

edit<> i can think of a GRRRRRRRREat skin for it

[frank3]

Gp's would be great, though there wouldn't be any use for it today in Aces High. We can't do any SAR's yet (nor do we ever get them Im afraid)

But they would be great for having races or something

Roflol on that Hazard-car

[Furball]

yeah.. the little jeep will give the pistol something to kill...

piow piow!!! DIEE!! PIOWPIOWPIOW!!1!1

You could drive up, jump out, and pistol the guy hiding in the map rooms popping goons.

If I'm not mistaken (and I could well be), back when AH was beta, there was a drivable Jeep with a single 50 mounted in the back. I spent 15 mins racing across the ground then turning violently to tumble a few times, explode, rinse repeat. Man, that's been a looooong time ago. I'm pretty sure it was an AH beta, but it was definitely in a ww2 sim demo of some sort.

Even though it would be mostly useless, maybe it could carry a few supplies, or an attached gunner could bail out (jump off?) and go beat the crap out of the guy hiding in the map room.

I vote 'yes'

Jeep raids in AW became the legendary hehe, bring em to AH!

[Cobra412]

Make it a multi task vehicle.  It could bring all sorts of supplies and it could also be used for arti crews.  It could either tow a trailer full of supplies or a nice big gun.  There could be 3 views with the arti option (driving, mounted gun or the arti gun).  It could also be used a small fast troop transport.

*nostalgia* Driving a tank, Truck, or Jeep 3 sectors at 30mph across land and across atleast 1 bridge to attack Bz in AW.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't in Aces High...
Maybe you mean Battlefield 1942?

We need a Willys Jeep...  SAS Style.


The SAS did not get their reputation as the best for nothing

The jeeps were heavily armed with combinations of both Browning and Vickers K machine guns. The ex-aircraft Vickers weapons were generally mounted in pairs and a total of up to five machine guns were carried on some vehicles. The effectiveness of this armament firing a mix of ball, armour-piercing and tracer shells can be judged from one assault on an airfield where 12 aircraft were destroyed in a five minute raid. With all guns blazing a single SAS jeep could deliver an impressive 5000 rounds per minute! The net result was that over 400 aircraft had been destroyed on the ground by November 1942. Stirling was finally captured in 1943 but escaped four times before being sent to Colditz where he spent the rest of the war.
.....
 
Their first successful raid soon followed on 17th November 1941, when two groups destroyed 61 aircraft at two airfields. Another raid was launched soon after; this time twenty seven were destroyed. By July 1942 the regiment had 15 specially modified jeeps in action in North Africa.

frank, i'm pretty sure it wasn't battlefield 42, this would have been about 5 years ago. I think it wasn't long after I played AW, but well before I started in AH1. AFAIK, it wasn't even available online, I'd found the demo somewhere. Maybe I'll drag out the old 466 and see if its still on the hard drive.

Cool pics Furball, that's a helluva lotta armament for a jeep.
Hey, its an all terrain Deathstar!

[Ack-Ack]

ahhh...the jeep.  brings back fond memories of trying to jump across the bridge north of N86.



ack-ack

Would that make a JEEP painted as the general lee -----the SGT. Lee?

i organized a 30+ man jeep raid on a Vbase once. And we took it with defenders there . im sure someone has film of it somewhere. Matter of fact, we took 2 or 3 bases in a row like that. JEEP HORDE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!
