I'd love to sink that carrier and the 5 players in tigers with it. That would be way cool.

The way I see it working is that you would spawn it and sail it to shore; when you dropped the ramp, it would become a vehicle hangar that would last for five vehicle spawns or until destroyed, whichever came first.

Naah. Think of the hate you'd get from blowing an LCT as the first tank rolls off the ramp, before the other vehicles can get out.

More generally, you may not have five people ready to spawn vehicles off the LCT immediately; leaving it there until all five spawn lets the defenders stop the spawning.

T-34? Eventually
M-40? Probably never
Jeep? Why??
Jagpanther? Probably not.

A better choice for mobil arty would be the M-7 Priest. Talked to Pyro about this one a while back.


75mm recoilless rifle? Might be better to add it as a weapons package for the M-3. Imagine..."is that M-3 I see a tank killer or a troop bus" :). Of course, the jeep could be added to give the C202 drivers a gv that they could kill :D.

As the game is currently designed, the Jagpanther (or any other turretless armored vehicle) would probably be a bigger pain than it was worth. With the short traverse of the main gun, it would be totally ineffective in most of the gv battles I've seen in the arena. Imagine switching back and forth between the driver and gunner positions to try and get the gun on a target. Also, notice it doesn't have a pintle gun.....gv vulchers would love this one :D.

The T-34/76 is probably the most likely to appear. Would be nice to have the option (via perks maybe) to upgrade the 76 to the 85.

NoBaddy.. NO NO NO NO! NOT THIS THIS THIS OR THIS! NEVERRR! WAA! :p

That said, The Jeep might be fun.. i'de be sure to take it out every now and then.. add the 75mm to the M3? come on, this is as bad as substituting every plane in kadesh for a 262..

Jagdpanther.. I'de like to hope that people aren't too lazy to leave thier turret to turn a bit (if HT adds the ability to counter-rotate the tracks this won't be an issue at all)

No pintle? Doubt it needed one.. Not sure what caliber these hits are from but..



I doubt hizookas or laser .50s will even tickle the panther..   (and that's sayin something)
