Armored trains
« on: March 22, 2017, 12:23:11 AM »
-Armored trains and rail infrastructure with stations and yards that can be some effects to bases.
-Perhaps people can move trains to nearby enemy bases, depending on distances, and can use manned guns just like a CV fleet.
-Bring a unique dynamic to the game. :aok

Let's have positive collaboration with our ideas.  :rock

FYI console games don't have trains in the fashion express here's, or near the level of complex play style allowed with computer gaming ( limited by controllers). Besides if some schlepp wants to wants to play in trains all night, I will gladly destroy him  :salute

not a console game? ok... (looks around to see who said it was...)

Personally, I loved the trains. It added another dimension to FSO, scenarios, and MA action. Same with the convoys, loved shooting them up with an M3 or strafing from an attack aircraft.

Waffle can build as many cars of different types as Hitech wants. A simple toe in the water test would be, when Hitech brings back the supply trains, add cars with wirbles and osties on them and allow players to man those guns. As usual, other players would time the trains and obliterate them from the air or, some geniuses would spend all day driving to the train shed to sit there and blow them to scooby snacks each time they spawned. Many squads including mine have done this over the last 15 years.

So this would escalate, and some genius would say Hitech then has to create a train yard with killer AI ack to protect the train just so he can ride in the wirbel or osti parked on one of it's cars. Just so some genius in a Lancaster with 14 1000lb bombs can lancstuka the train and have the first genius back in here telling Hitech he has to cripple Lancasters or add more code infrastructure just so his train can make it to the other station with out being blown to scooby snacks.

Planes with bombs blow trains into scooby snacks......

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.

And so it begins before the first track object gets laid down on a terrain.
