Transports as boxes

If we could fly tranports in boxes that would be cool. The odds of taking bases would be times three.

No, it wouldn't. If one transport gets shot down, all others in the formation would be too. The increase of survivability in bombers comes from the extra firepower, and the C47 has no firepower to multiply. Plus, the best defence the gooney bird has is it's insane turning ability, which is taken away with formations.

I think HTC has said in the past something along the lines of "If we allow you to carry more troops, the number needed for a capture will increase as well".

so if we got formations of goons, it would take 30 troops to take a base.

DONT RAISE THE TROOP CAP NUMBER, thats one of the reasons i dont like AVA where you have to fly 3 goons to take a base
plus maybe just a suggestion to change the c-47's class to "goon" or "transport" instead of "bomber"
