Rearm Pads on vbases

[Vudu15]

Yall know those vbases that are out there all by themselves, why couldn't we have a rearm pad solely for aircraft at that vbase and only at certain vbases,
that fell under this category? and to counter this if the troops and supps for the field are dwn so is the rearmpad?

I think the current way of having someone drop off vehicle supplies before the hangars are taken down or supplies is disabled is suffice enough imo. tc21 out!

Because it's not an airfield?  If a plane landed outside your house could you refuel it?  Why not?

I hear this a lot in the MA...

Think of it this way: in real life airfields have a motor pool (garage and gv repair and supply station), but airfields are not just anywhere.

GV bases are for gv's, airfields are for both.  Aircraft have far more technical requirements than gv's.

I vote a solid NO for adding re-arm pads to gv bases.

It would be nice to land at a Vbase to throw in a bit of fuel, but yes I know why would a vbase have aircraft fuel.

     Free yourself from score and names in lights...it will be very relaxing. 

[Jayhawk]

nope

     Doomed to dweebdom then I guess

Attacking Vbases is difficult enough as is: The defender can sit & listen for your tanks, he can spot in god mode from manned ack & tower, he can safely land and reup and has easier access to supplies.
Rearm pad would give him much better aircover availability as well.
And also GV fights without bombing A-20s or blasting Il-2 are hard enough to get right now. Rearm pads on Vbases wouldn't help with that.

True fuel in real life for these aircraft would not be a normal thing on a vbase but ammo and possably ords would be, the time i run into the need for this: a vbase is bout a grid froma good guy field but the enemy's field is less than half the distance and your friendly gvs are being bombed and would like aircover. Another thing I like to do is up a hurri1 ora Brewster and just spot for the gv guys cause i know they appreciate it, but of course fuel is then the issue. another limitation would be to make it for only certain aircraft if you wanted to get that crazy with it...and I know its strange but it is a game.

Someone with more knowledge may have to back me up on this but I imagine that bases and fields in WWII that did not support aircraft did not carry ammunition in the proper manner to load into aircraft.  Second, I highly doubt tank forces were hauling around 1000 lbs bombs (just in case, ya never know).

We know why you want it, to make it easier for you.  Sorry, that's not how it works.

I agree on that!

Well I can see you hard headed guys have some problems goin on up there, and your name must be Hitech on top of that. but ya know I'm usually shooting down ground attack a/c but if you want to get bombed guess that your or darn problem. Funny you guys bring something up its a great idea, or just a bad idea. I bring something up I'm trying to make the game "easier".

[Martyn]

No.
