Use vehicles perks to obtain field expidient armor/protection.

[BigKev03]

We have all seen the pics of shermans in WWII that have the extra track links, logs or sand bags on the front, side or rear of the vehicle for added protection.  I dont think it would be possible but man would it be ideal to be able to use perks to choose this type of field expidient armor application in the hangar when you choose your ammmunitiion load out and then spawn out.  About 2-3 perks would be fair.  I know it wont happen but it would be fun.

i say we should be allowed to have variants of armor styles. like how the pnzr IV has its anti AP round armor sheets. lets put in a pre normandy style and lower the eny to get better perk points. then we can put the M18 in realistically with its specialized AP rounds to take out the Pnzrs with the armor sheets

Later, lets get a few more tanks before we get customized armor.

Really we need a Panzer III ausf N, a Cromwell Mk IV, Nashorn,  and a Sherman (75mm and 76mm) before we get anything like this.

This idea has merit.  Also potential to purchase with perks additional camouflage items, nets, brush, etc...   +1

Pfft... Epic over reaction is more like it.

This is one of the better ideas I've seen. Field expidient armor was an option actually used by crews during and after WWII. Good idea Kev. +1

Yeah, but look at the plethora of field options that don't exist for anything...probably wont either too many variables...but it would be cool.

Thanks for all the comments guys.  Just throwing an idea out.

Would personaly love to see it along with waystin's camo idea. But the camo thing would probably drop FR's like a lead balloon. Would like to see the extra track links on the panzer and sherman actually affect shell hits. And maybe add degrees of track damage, and have the ability to fix minor ones (with the extra track links).

But still stand by what I said: Later, we need more tanks first.

Another "expert" chimes in...I'd facepalm you but it's not worth the effort.

Uhh, no.   This is actually one of the few good ideas that have been brought on here.   I'd like to see this implemented, as this was VERY COMMON in WWII.

I'LL just take a king tiger and call it a day, ty vary much and have a nice day.
