Title: Higgins Boat
Post by: Raptor on October 15, 2004, 04:08:53 PM

Will we see the Higgins Boat in AH2 anytime soon in? Instead of having to spend 10 minutes in a lvt going less than a mile, get there quicker in Higgins boat. It would trade armor and defenses for speed, so the lvt would not be phased out in CV assaults. If the M model were brought to the game, we could bring troops, supplies and gvs (such as m3, m16, m8.. sherman *hint hint*) ashore

besides... I think the PT boat is getting kind of lonely in the hangat being the only boat.

If you bring troops, it will be a long run for them.  Also, don't you have to be within a certain distance of the city for troops to go to it?

But, I do like the idea of brining in GVs.

there are some fields/towns right on the water edge, I think they could make it. If not take an M3 and let someone else drive the rest of the way.
