It would be nice to have a really mixed combat environment in AH. Right now it's just a combat flight simulator (no connection, relation or other link to MS's inferior creation) aside the stray pzkw IVH.

I'd like to see some more ground activity, maybe forced like if a base is cutoff by ground forces from its HQ it doesn't receive supplies (hey, paradrop by goon!) or something like that.

This would make AH a more complete sim, but anyway, I'll shut up till the Navy arrives (drool) and maybe HTC could figure some things out to increase ground activity after that. Would be nice Air, Land, Sea, wherever you look, there's fighting!

  Cool, and maybe make the troops from c-47's be real, like shoot guns ect.  Or have Cybernetic Monkeys to do the job.

Actually, if you get tanks behind enemy lines, it's pretty easy to take a few V bases and hit the enemy's factories to limit the resupply of airfields.  It's just that most of us aren't interested in doing it.

Not to piss on anyone but the name of the game is Aces High, not Tanks High or Panzer High.  But I think more ground fighting would bring a new element to the game and would bring in even more people.

How did they use to call people who killed lots and lotsa enemy tanks, that would be aces, right.

But seriously, if it's technically possible to have some more ground action I agree with you that more people would join the community and we could have a more varied game, so only advantages IMHO.

I would like to see the Sherman, the T-34, the M7 Priest, the Hummel, and SU-76.

And those patches of "fields" you see on the ground?  I would like them to have some 3D treelines between the fields to use as cover.

It's laughable easy to do some V base jumping and arrive in enemy town quite fast. Few tankers can capture enemy land pretty fast. Shame that no-one is interester using it.
