Author Topic: New (?) troops idea (Read 280 times)

This may have been suggested before, if it has then my apologies.

How about introducing a "perked" transport a/c that can land and disgorge a troop/or supplies loaded M3.

Maybe a C47 that tows a Glider, it would need two pilots with the Glider pilot then taking over the M3.

It may add something extra to game play, when a town is down the search is on for the troops, the M3 spawn point is normally capped and aircraft are looking for the C47, this is a method of creating a random M3 spawn point.

It's just a suggestion

Great idea!
It would sure be an antidote to the spawn camping issue and would add an air of uncertainty regarding which direction the troops would be coming from on the ground: something true airborne operations were designed to do. You know fellas - go behind enemy lines and effect a capture.

Excellent!

I also asked for gliders quite some time ago.Dont know if it was ignored or just not seen but ive seen many requests for them but never any yes or no with concerns to whether they would or could be added.

I like the recently posted idea of the T34 with 5 or 6 troops crawling over it

. It might not have AA capability but being able to carry trrops as well as work as a tank would make the t34 a very good and unique choice for attacks!

I also asked for the willy's jeep with 4 men. Imagine fast 4 jeep attacks with a few men in each?
It would be like the SAS raids in the desert!

(didnt they carry jeeps in gliders too?

How about giving us bailing pilots a whoopeeed WORKING GUN, or lose it from the artwork?
