Author Topic: Perk points - clarification please! (Read 296 times)

Fidd · « **on:** March 12, 2001, 07:04:00 AM »

I have a few fighter, bomber and vehicle perk points. I havn't tried "spending" any yet. Here's my question: If I spend all my "fighter" perk points, can they only be spent on a perk fighter, or can they be spent on the Arado as well? Put another way, does the fighter/bomber/vehicle perk categories apply only to how u achieved the points, or does it apply to what thy're spent on?

If the latter, then what do we spend vehicle perk points on?

Fighter perks can only be spent on fighters, bomber perks on bombers, and vehicle perks on vehicles. I'm sure there will be a perk vehicle included in the future for you to spend points on.

Are there such things as shared points?

I'm thinking of the unlikely event of a TBM gunner kiling a Tempest whilst in a successfull mission. The buff pilot gets the bomb points, obviously, but who gets the Tempest kill?; or gunner kills in general.

(What you looking at? Think I'll ever kill a Tempest any other way?

May I suggest the Sherman Firefly as the perk vehicle? The sherman would (imho) be well worth modelling, as with only minor modifications to the model/graphics later other versions of the Sherman could be added:

Sherman Calliope - multiple heavy rockets
Sherman 75mm - roughly same as Pz4
Sherman DD - amphibious (complements amphib troop carrier?)

I'd also suggest the "hanomag" series of German half-tracks, (Skfz 251) as these carried a huge variety of weapons from Mg's to Pak40 AT weapons via flamethrowers and searchlights.

Clearly AH is principally an air-game, but for some economy in production of future vehicles, this might be a sensible way to progress?

I read Shermans DD almost failed the mission ?

I think the cannon version of the Corsair and the Ostwind should be the perk units. I suggest:
F4UC = 20 points
Ostwind = 10 points
