i agree slipknot, i wish we could rearm at vbases, it could change the whole dynamics of the game!

Not for the better, IMO.

It's a bit of a craptastic idea.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

I posted it in the wishlist forums for some feedback.

Seems the concern (at least in the MAs) is in TT and bases on maps known for good tank battles the bomb****s would ruin the fun.  I understand that and have to agree. 

But...    ...for FSO...   ...maybe???

FSO has a lot more of a realistic simulation of WW2 combat than the MAs. I don't consider them in the same league with each other, really. In that respect, it breaks realism all the more if you are playing a jury-rigged setup that has fighters and/or bombers rolling from V-fields. It honestly can't be that hard to find a base somewhere inside 50 miles of what you want. It doesn't matter if it's a little further back, because you're not in the MA. You don't need instant gratification. You don't WANT to die in the first 5 minutes of an FSO because you can't respawn.

My comment was entirely based on FSO use, and not relating to previous discussions regarding its use in the MAs.

Just FYI.

I have no problem with launching from V bases. The challege is landing at a V base when damaged, pilot wounded or out of fuel. Re-arming there would be nice, but that may be going a bit too far.
