Vehicle bombing?  Meh. 

You guys can have this event in the middle of the map and play in the mud all night for all I care.  I won't bother you if you don't shoot up at me. 

The deal's off if I see a wirb taking potshots! :D

One, this would be an AVA event and not in the MA. They are trying to get some of us into the AVA as it is a great areena. The maps are good , but lately the arena is more quiet these days.. I think something like this is just what they need . Look for morre ideas and new challenges to come !!

I think the storch should be allowed regardless...and I'm really indifferent about allowing tank busters...maybe the stuka, hurri D, and Il2 should be allowed...If a spawn camp needs broken what better way...but no ords...getting shot by a tank buster really doesn't bother me as much as getting bombed by pony or jug...It would throw a wrinkle into it that some probably wouldn't like, but it would make a spawn camp nearly impossible

I know, man.  I was just teasin'.  I hope you guys get it started.  Stuff like this helps pull in new people...and who knows?  Maybe it would motivate me to get in a tank one day!  :D

easyscor who is a die hard bomber guy, was in a tank with us last week and said he had a blast(pardon the pun). its something of a challenge for people to try. i think its a great distraction now and then. and if we want to crank it up, we just turn on a fighter to make things even more interesting. one WITHOUT bombs! hehehe.

at this point we are going to try to run this on thursday nights in the AVA. ive already posted a new thread with the setup and the objectives. check it out and come if you like. bring a friend!!

Two nights a week would be great, limited number of storches would also be helpful,  although might be hard to regulate,  I'm all for a chance to tank fight on any given night!
Some maps have no real chance at all , and rightly so maybe, but if all you do is tank, you should have a good place to do so at any given time!

If by a "tank fight on any given night" means a tank fight for two or three hours on a Thursday night, then you can participate in the AvA for the next two weeks. Watch for the announcements.

Easy in-game again.
