LST ( landing ship,tank

[jerry54]

How about adding LST assult ship's to the game, they have AAA guns, they deliver tanks, troops,supplies or what ever they are assigned to carry, they could be with or with out a fleet, these ship's were very important in WW2 and would help a lot assulting far away port's or shore based fields, not to mention sneek attacks, it would add a whole new deminsion to the game

[shermanjr]

then wat would be the point of lvts

[jerry54]

lvt's have to stay with the carrier's, lst can be independent, and they also deliver and off load directly on the beach with a much better chance of surviveablity b/c of their off loading speed, not sitting ducks a mile or two out in the sea. an lst is also a much smaller than an entire cv group and can beach miles away, lvt's dont carry tanks, werbels, fast m3's fast jeeps for supplies, any gv can be loaded on a lst, and a lot of them

roll gv's from another base? also it would kill off the lvt because the lst would deliver troops and has a few AAA guns

LS"TANK"   yes it can land troops. but how would the troops run to the map room? not all towns are by the beach. I have actually taken an LVT from the opposite side of a fight to sneak a base from 10 miles away (yeah i was that patient)

An LST will do nothing more but provide a better fight for the CV groups

[jerry54]

troops get on m3's on the LST,

dont put the M3 on the LST? simple conclusion to the argument... tank only

yeah but imagine panzers, tigers, t34s, panthers m4's fireflys and m3s all rolling off a few LSTs. it would completely kill the idea of gving from another base and it would make base taking alot easier than it already is.
And on another note you have to be crazy to drive 10 miles in an lvt...

so youre saying put a tiger on an LST that was American? M4/75s and M4/76s were used on them.

he never specified what kind of tanks...kind of how we have different gv's (tigers m4's panthers t34's) rolling out of a hangar. it really doesnt matter because were not axis/allies in the MA's

[M0nkey_Man]

i think sticking a tiger on an LST would be overkill

yet we are still historically accurate when it comes to how we use the planes and vehicles we have. putting a tiger on an LST is like putting hispanos on A6Ms
