Runways are the airplane spawn point, so if you destroy the spawn point..

Guess you've never tried the TE?
There are spawn points FYI.

They used to have it in AH but as mentioned, if someone bombs the spawn point you'd explode on spawn. This pi$$ed off quite a few people and the feature was withdrawn.

However, I think it might find a place in AH2: TOD but not AH2: Classic.

Talking of runways, I'd like to see the correct lengths for large runways, i.e. 1 runway at 6000ft, 2 runways at 4000ft.

What's the use of implementing a real life tactic, when the perpatrators aren't bothered by any real life consequences - ie. suicidal buffs barging in through defenses and ack, carpeting the airfield and augering at field - ?

Thats a great idea Nexx, a 6k runway would be very useful for heavy buff's trying to take off and avoid annoyingly placed mountains.
