There is a group that meets in the DA to have GV fights in the GV section of the map.  You should look this group up and see if you can tag along.

Yes...yes... and furball guys would like a place not grieved by toolsheders. Not going to happen. Was tried and maps have been removed off of rotation.

As I understand it fightertown areas are not allowed for MA maps, but tanktowns are. So its just a question of someone building an MA terrain featuring a central tank town with no airbases nearby. Best bet would be to ask in the terrain editor forum if anyone wants to do one.

Someone who drops the fighter hangars when a fun furball is taking place between two airbases.  It can also refer to capturing the bases in Tank Town, e.g. "Tank Town has been toolshedded."  More generally, bombing/capturing bases to stop fun fights.

Thanks.  I be a MAJOR Toolshedder then! 

Our squad likes to take bases so that is why.  We don't do it to shut down a good furball though.  I mean intentionally.  It is either offense or defence for the country we are in.  MOST of our takes are empty bases with a strat. in mind.    :aok

A Toolshedder is someone that is primarily a bomber flyer, not just someone that eggs FHs to ruin a furball, capturing TT or someone that bombs to stop fights.

trinity was a tanker paradise. Once I actually saw a guy in the volcano with a set of lancs...he climbed to 28K+ just to bomb GV's.

One who prefers to fight defenseless/unable to fightback toolsheds than an actual opponent.

If tankers dont want to be bothered by jabos then they should not roll AAA tanks and if fighters dont want to be bothered by tankers they should not get shot down by AAA tanks and go back for revenge.

Its one of those situations where someone has to be the big man and step down first. It wont happen

I fully agree with JETBLST, GV icons are stupid
