Do we see something common with gigant compared to C-130 and C-17?

other then being a high wing monoplane, not really.

It does look somewhat like a C-5, C-133, or the H-4. Perhaps most like the H-4 because of the clamshell doors.

Other then that...it just looks like a big Fw.

The Gigant and the Marder or Hetzer or towed 88s (you can use the M3 as tow tractor)

I think the way to employ this monster would be the following..

when you pick the plane you list or ord to pick would include m-3/m-16 ow whatever vehicles you want. then when you land you could open the doors and then switch to your vehicle and roll on out leaving the plane out, then when you are finished raising hell you roll back in and close the doors and take off.

as far as it being easy to shoot down, here is what ya need to do for that.  make its icon range the same as the flak panzer  1.5k

then FLY LOW! and if they dont see ya you make it, It would be a BLAST blobbing around 100 feet off the ground hideing from those scurvy sheister bastards!


ohh and what would 200 troops falling on a base look like?
do you think the acks could kill em all before they could capture?

If you like the Gigant idea,
please post so in the Gigant thread in the:
Gameplay feedback/issues forum as well as in here.

I don't have a clue as to what it would take for HTC to decide to model something that has been recomended by players, but I would think it would take at least a few hundred responses.

Wobble, 1.5k icons? Are you serious?

That'd hardly do much good. You could spot this damn thing from 20k without icons

will be fun to see Gigant instead of instantaneous Pop-Up of osty at spawn point ...
Will give us a chance to let those "OstyVulcher" pay the price
