They have a use for sure by providing a hard spot in the map taking portion of the game.  They are very difficult to capture.

Again this is WW2, we are not dealing with Air to ground missles....Everything in here is done manually.

If I remember right, Waffle modeled that large field off a picture of a WWII field in England.

Im not sure which one, but I seem to remember it when he first posted it as a tease picture during the Alpha. Google "world war ii british airfields" and you should be able to find it.

What's the point of having a large map if you are going to put a TT in the middle of it?

Base distance and base placement strategy is the bigger issue!

I love them, just wish my PC didn't chug to a slide show everytime I am anywhere near one.   I refer to them as "stalingrad"  because the usual joes who steam roll field after field are not capable of coming up with a feasible plan to capture them swiftly.   Even with just one person defending them.

Needs at least 5 guys all working together who know what they are doing to bring a successful attempt.

Same here...  I am usually over 50 fps, but when I get near an extra large field, 12-17... unplayable...
