I think my argument is going right over your head BAR.

Could someone please help him out with this?
what monkey said. it was never over my head. you just need to see that it would most likely be a loadout selection in the hangar as what to drive off the LST. and this will not include any other armor but american/british

just because i said brit doesnt mean i thought more than the firefly was brit.. second, much later on in this game's development there will most likely be crusaders/cromwells/comets/churchills too... :rolleyes: why must everyone argue with me? :rolleyes:

A simple solution to this might be to allow the LST in the game but not allow it to land vehicles unless the nearby base is dropped to a certain level (i.e. nor ord, no radar, no troops, etc, etc).  This would represent the fact that LST's did not land and drop their vehicles until a beach head was established.  I know this is not the nest solution if at all a solution but it may open up other ideas to this concept but still keeping it histoical in the fact that LST's did not hit the beach until after assualt troops had cleared the beach and moved inland.  LST does stand for Large Slow Target!!!!

seriously? perking a perked gv on an LST would be pointless! (M4's aint free ya know) btw with my 8 months of being on AH i was hardly able to get 300 perks, and that was in the fighter sorties

so a 5 perk GV on an LST isnt 300... most of us will be able to use an LST. and they wont be using the LST freely while theres a huge cap over the base/enemies nearby
