Tank or GV setup
« on: January 20, 2012, 11:58:11 AM »
attention tankers and GV'ers: i am thinking about doing a setup in the AVA, that is conducive to tank fights and base taking, but allows for plane fights also. this setup will be a map with lots of GV spawns but aircraft in it too for dogfights. large bombs will be disabled so that people cant spend their time beating up tanks.

if this is something that interests you, please make suggestions or comments. also i need a good name for it, so please suggest something.

I recommend you don't activate Tigers or King Tigers.
The side with the Tigers has an unfair advantage (No perks in AvA).
There was a very limited supply of these tanks in WWII. They often broke down as well.

Also, limit the number of Panthers and Sherman Vc Fireflys that can launch or only allow them at
the rear fields.

My two cents,

How about "jaeger's drunken destruction derby" for a name or you could always borrow the title from the game "Twisted Metal" (coincidentaly this is where I came up with my game/forum ID)

I see you would disable larger bombs in an effort to keep planes from bombing GVs, does that mean antitank planes like the IL2 would be excluded from the set up as well?
The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

if necessary, or limited to certain bases.

by the way, i like the idea of calling it twisted metal!

well as a tank busting dweeb what I think could be fun was to add the Il-2 on limited numbers and as fighter escorts small weak planes like i16's, combatants could be Emil's and mighty brewsters

just a long shot tho

THIS IS A GREAT IDEA :rock :rock :rock However, it should wait until the Storch comes in the next version, so there's a GV spotter.

I like it.  I am following your wishlist idea on limiting certain planes & vehicles quantities and that would really help out here.  I do like Raphies idea of adding tank killing planes, but balance them out with AA vehicles and no bombs.
