New Field Strat
« on: August 12, 2007, 12:47:30 AM »
Communications Shed(s) - Bombing this would cut off local Vox/Text/Check 6's for a predetermined period of time.

This could cause a LOT of Chaos... Or who knows?  Someone may ASK the enemy to bomb it at a certain area! :lol

Just an idea fellas, thought it might change the dynamic of the game a bit.  Imagine trying to mount a base defense without any communication.

Who knows?  Maybe even a Zone or HQ type strat also to affect larger areas???

hmm the tower could be use as a "communication shed" . destroy it and ppl will doesn't know which direction to spawn. instead of Ne, Sw, etc etc etc, you click and it give you a random heading.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

Cool thought.  How about this for a devastating side effect:  For the duration, within a few miles of the base, you can't see the ID/range tags any more.  Is that dot a friendly or an enemy?  How far away is he?

Yikes!

Aircraft aren't dweeby. Players are. Especially those lamenting about  "dweeby planes"... ;)

I have a problem with this one.  It would probably be okay if for example,  one side had Shermans and one had Panzers. Then you could tell the good guys from the bad. But with all sides using the same vehicles I think it would just be too confusing.

Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

I was kinda hoping more people would like this one.... I know it's just another 'toolshed' but it is one that could make a big tactical difference.
