Go into the Player tab and create an arena by choosing ndisles. Then you can look at it and see the GV bases on the center island were replaced by small airfields which are capture able.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Looks like the buzzsaw terrain is showing the way forward for creating fast combat in a localized area to bring players together with low numbers. GV bases limit the available toys and activities while airfields support both toys and activities. Airfields are more vulnerable to closing down GV operations than a GV base. Waffle didn't remove the tank town object, so the GV spawns are in the same places for GV furballing as usual. Enjoy this while it's new. Eventually players will go back to flying the way they always do to not loose in a furball. I wonder if that large terrain with the center island and all those GV bases with 3 airfields will be updated like this? It may speed up the action there too.
Seems the rooks thought it was cool to take all the TT bases. Personally, I think that's uncool.

Was worried it would be too much for a few to not greif the arena by doing something like that during low numbers. The base layouts are too easy for lazy players not to whizz on it. You don't really need three un-capturable fields near the HQ on any map.

The bish and knits have done this as well.  I agree, not cool.
BTW, when the bish did it a couple of weeks ago, we pushed them off our base and some Rook tanks went to the taken knit base to help the knits push the bish off that base.

No matter the side, its poor form, stage 4 griefing.

 :rofl  The vox conversation was more like  "lets help the knits put the bish in their place or capture the base ourselves which ever came first.

All countries are having the same problem with strats being knocked down during low play hours leaving a mess during prime time.  Having base ack and ammo down for two hours is bad for game play.   Nothing more wasteful of players than having to have someone guard the map room for a couple of hours.

Hell to the no.


Would make base capturing almost impossible.

we have maps with single indestructible VH bases and they still get captured--where theres a will theres a way

 I think anybody taking tt bases is uncool---bish are the worse at it---its like they are the scrooges or grinches of the game-not wanting anyone to have gv battle fun.

a lot of times I log on and bish own tt and I just log back off

You are prolly not the only one that does that (and people complain about the numbers SMH)

I do find it annoying but I can find something to do somewhere on the map.
