I say if you can fart in a tuba to the tune of "Cheers", the field is yours.

Still need the C47 to bring the tuba!

I say not land...


BAIL, if 10 players can bail and run to map room give them the capture...  (so long as everuthing is down of course)

Hell not a bad idea..  just think of the fun you could have tryin to strafe them.

I would be happy if HTC just increased the map room hardness to force a least 2 goons to achieve a capture..............


one goon / M3 / LVT2 to capture is a bit lame IMO.

Also drunks should refuse to jump if the AoA is above / below certain criteria         (sort of C47 version of F6 puts you in the jump door with the greenlight flashing)

Base Capturing
« Reply #18 on: September 01, 2003, 12:44:16 PM »
IMHO, Base capturing works great as is. Leave it alone.

In CT last night, it took 3 M3's to capture a field, since a 109 we couldnt seem to get rid of would strafe and kill many of them as soon as they were released or get the M3 before it got all the way into town....

And you should have preped the day before by eating nothing but beans!

Beans, Beans, the musical fruit
the more you eat, the more bases you capture:p
so eat beans for every meal.:D


I can just see it now.
"PFFFFTHATT!! "

"Damn they captured A5!  More Beans men, lets get it back!"

Would make a drive to capture bases litterally run out of GAS!

Yes you are right, I stand corrected.  The army has all the beans and eats them quite regularly.  That is why I keep that door on the Goon open as soon as I spawn one "PFHEW!!! The smoking lamp is out, don't want to explode on the way to capture a base":D

This reminds of something involving troops.  I dropped ordinance and strafed until the last moment in attempt to kill troops. I know I got one with 50 cals but the rest were in the crater when I looked back, running along as before.

Base capturing is great the way it is BUT...we could do without the titanium skinned cyborg troops. 2 1k bombs should be enough to take out the entire lot!
