1) The goon can not resupply airfield cargo on the checkerd pads. Instead of this, why not mark each cargo with a number (number of the base it came from). If a person drops the cargo on a base matching the number of his cargo (example: i resupply, take off, and try to drop the cargo on that same base) then the cargo supply would do nothing.

This would get more people doing long resupply runs and improve goon points per sortie for resupply. (since its about 1-5 perks max, no one really does it much)

2) Vehicle cargo is great, but I get no perks for it. Why? If I resupply 10 panzers that are stomping a field, I should get more perks than if I dropped one airfield cargo onto an almost perfect airbase.

Helping vehicles should get you a reward, even if it is a small one.


Thats it. I hope some of this is addressed. I love the goon but right now you can only get a good perks-per-sortie ratio by flying troop goons (which means you will have alot of goon downtime since people are not always taking fields)

If you resupply vehicles you sure get a reward. Those 10 mates you help like you very much and they are happy. You have also a good feeling because you know you have helped your friends. Some of them even thank you and keep you as a great teamplayer.

What to do with vehicleperks anyway..

this is the case already.  you cannot resupply the base you take off from or reloaded resupplies from.

Is it a case where the goon can only re-arm at the base it originally launched from?  Or not at all?

no no, I am not missing the point.  I am not sure for this not being able to drop, but this is the rule now, because some guys used the re-arm pad, go up 800ft, drop and land, re-arm, drop... which should not be the case.

or are you pointing out to some bug in this rule?

The point was that we can have a way for goons to use the checkered pads without being able to resupply the base they are at.

I know you can not resupply the base you are at now (which is good) but I want to be able to use the checkered pads on runways to resupply my airfield cargo and take it to ANOTHER base.

That was the point, although it was long and drawn out because I am stoned.:p
