Please Give Us Vehicles For Version 0.41

[Rendar]

There was a vote on whether to have vehicles or the film camera in V 0.40.  Now that its out, we should get some vehicles in V 0.41.  
Examples:
Panzer (Tiger??)
T-34
M-4 Sherman
Half-Track
Troop Truck (Synonomous with the C-47, e.g.              used for field capture)

I would guess that some roads would have to be added.  We could then have raids on troop truck convoys bound for our fields, and also strafe the tanks escorting them.

while I'm looking forward to the inclusion of vehicles, I can't say I'm really looking forward to the long drives between bases.  Think I'll stick with my hawg and fortress =) (until/unless we can airdrop tanks, then I'll take sherman =)

I wonder how lethal the current ack would be to ground vehicles too?

I think tanks like Tiger I / II, Panther G, M-36 Jackson (hmm, i hope i remember this right), M-4 Sherman / Jumbo, KV-Ic, T-34/85... could be nice stuff here.
Also some lighter tanks would be pretty cool too.
Wouldn't it be nice to strafe troopers with some of SdKfz 234 serie armoured car <grin>

[Rendar]

An armored car would be a great defense against paratroops.  If you run out of ammo, you can always run them over.:d  to solve the problem of long drives, we could have forward bases in addition to the airfields.  The fuel system would work the same way as in the airfields.

Yes yes yes.
We want vehicles, a flying vehicles as 109F-4 <G>.
 ..and one Panther for me, please.

[gatt]

I think that fast armoured cars (with some grunts aboard) and flak trucks would be the best initial solution.

Can you imagine SAS actions against LW front line airfields ... we could wait for them in a flak panzer ....  

Moreover a reduced icon setting should be implemented for them. You should not spot a camouflaged vehicle above, say, 5,000ft.

Then tanks and tanks and tanks ...... to let FW190F/G, Typhoons/Tempest, Hurricane MkIID and godknowswhat play their role.

Vehicles? Who needs the darn vehicles?  

Let's have manned acks first: twin 50s, 20mm's or 40mm's; pedals control rotation and the stick elevation kinda things. Let's shoot some drunks attacking the field!

(Mind you, 88mm German AA gun was an extremely effective anti-tank weapon... Let's have something to shoot at too )

Ok lynx,
I'll mount your damned ack-ack on a truck and I'll drive firing around, ok? ...  

[Werewolf]

I agree to mannable ack. Give me a battery of 8,8 to defend industry complexes.

OK gatt - you're driving, I'll fire the guns .

(I still got Incoming CD somewhere - need to install and practice in anticipation I guess )
