manned town ack ?
« on: January 03, 2013, 06:33:25 PM »
this may be a post already if it is sorry. just wondering why there is no manned ack positions in the towns,especially when guys are really trying to take base from you and have dropped your VH first pass with buffs.theres plenty in the airfields but not all towns are right next to the airfields to defend with manned guns.

Aeroplanes are worth trying.  :aok

I would also like to see manned AAA for the towns and at least one or two anti-tank guns as well.

What would be the best positions for the manned guns?  I would say 2 37's and 1 88 would do the trick.  The 88 is AT capable after all, and it being dual purpose would make it a better option I believe.

Regardless, having a couple of manned guns in the town would prove helpful in defense, if only for a few scant moments. :aok

Wow I find it hard to believe it has been almost 38 days since our last path. We should have release another 38 versions by now  :bhead

No

There's enough guys too scared to hurt their score by upping planes so they get in manned guns or wirb's, don't need more.

If I am in a fight and someone runs to town ack 'oh well, time to wait for him to come out again...' add manned town acks and get someone who gets lucky or someone like kvuo in a manned gun in town sniping me from 3k out saving the ack hugger  :bhead

Basically, my point: No more ack, please  :furious

i agree.. if anything, more ack on base, but less in the towns.. the towns should be where the fight is, not over the base.
