I would bet a lot of the negative forum trolls (Image removed from quote.)
here voted for the B-29- guffaw! we need a new emoticon for guffaw! B-29 what a waste of resources. This is an interesting Idea and all some of you can do it criticize.   :huh
called fine tuning a wish to make it available for game use... :aok we like the wish then think of ways to implement it. and those two keep shooting down everything i add to the idea

so a 5 perk GV on an LST isnt 300... most of us will be able to use an LST. and they wont be using the LST freely while theres a huge cap over the base/enemies nearby
ok if there isnt a huge cap over the field, you dont waste your time using it.
if there are a good amount of enemies you still dont use it.
when you do use it is when there is nobody around but you so you sit there forever until something shows up? im not really into that idea... :uhoh

so youre the type who wont spend one perk or 5 perks on a GV huh? M4 76 is one perk. do the same for LSTs

i dont use perkrides...i always loose them and i never can earn back the points to use it ever again. i got lucky with a 262 before...but almost every time i get a perkride i loose it and im set back to almost ZERO perks.
thats my reason...

I'd pay 1 perk for the ability to launch a tank from an LST.
























As long as it's a Tiger.  :neener:

that is why i never up any perked gv's...im usually stuck in a panzer until i get about 30 perks then die in my tiger and loose it all
also every time i upped a 262 i have augered right as i landed...i get a good amount of kills (4 or so) then smack into the dirt afterwards

I dont see why not an LST or why not let a Tiger come off it.

Point 1- Tanks woudlnt be firing from LTS's

Point 2 - Not all shore bases have spawns from other bases

Point 3- As for the Tiger. someone will just up an IL2 with its Warthog like depleted uranium cannons and just knock it out anyway just like they do now when it spawns in from any other spawn point.

The Tiger would not be a game changer.

but if you wanted to exclude the Tiger. that would be ok on different grounds.

Im not sure it would fit in an LST

along with that. people would be more cautious in using them due to the fact that the tanks in the LSTs will not be able to be used until landing.
