Another novel idea on base captures....

That is a great idea Waffle!

That will give the strats some real strategic importance in the game. It would really force a side to work together to take ground, plus give the bomer pilots a real reason to climb to 20k+ to complete a mission into enemy territory.

NICE!!!

Another novel idea on base captures....

i'd love to see a very large radar cover for the intorceptors too . just covering air over 12K .  Cos i HATE trying to bring down bombers while still trying to climb to their alt.  In WWII they had 40mins uptime to intercept, or they were already at that alt . At the moment your a sitting duck for the buffs as your on your lonesome. that aint fun . 15 mins to climb and shot down in 2 mins.

So not only do buffs need help but interceptors too.  BUT i love this plan.. real depth.

I agree with the concept of introducing a meaningful bomber role in the game.   I really like the idea of bomber missions and close fighter support.  And bomber missions that having more effect on the game.  I am not sure about the base capture part being linked to the strat, but I do like the idea of increasing the usefulness of strats and the importance of defending and attacking them.

Good Suggestion!

It might be pretty drastic, but enable a few plane types (say, hurri2D and il2) at vbases. Leave the V bases as being independent of the strats. Lots of choo choos steaming around shooting people and resupplying. More convoys, more resupply barges, etc.

Now, theoretically, everything has a dedicated role aside from flattening hangars or vulching. Ground attack to deal with convoys, trains, barges, in addition to GVs and toolshedding. Bombers for the strat targets, goons/M3s/Jeeps to resupply all strat, not just HQ. If stuff has to get blown up in large quantities, that means bombers. If bombers need to get blown up in large quantities, that means heavily armed interceptors. If interceptors need to be blown up in large quantities, that means... furballing for the war effort!

That sounds kinda nutty.
