Well, here's my thinkin. We need Bulldozers. We need Bulldozers for two reasons, 1. To repair bases, and 2. To build temporary airbases. The rebiulding bases part is pretty self explanatory but the second part takes a biit O-Thinkin. First we would need say a minimum of 10 bulldozers working on an airfield. If even one of these were destroyed the airbase would have to be restarted. The bulldozers would of course have to be guarded by tanks and aircraft. Now the group of 10 or so bulldozers would have to work in a specified spot for 5 minutes as a team to produce the airfield. If u have more dozers it would take less time. Now to the airbase. The airbase would only be able to carry fighters and light bombers. it would only have 1 fighter hangar and 1 bomber hangar. Maybe even have a VH. The airfield would only stay up for 30 minutes and after those 30 minutes were up, then the airfield would explode. Now as you can imagine temporary airfields would be popping up allover the place if there wernt restrictions. There would only be 3 temp airfields allowed on the field at one time. Also, the airbase would have to be placed on somewhat level ground. I got this idea from my grandfather who built temp airfields in WW2. Whaddaya think?

Definately sounds interesting. Not a bad idea come to think of it.

PERK THE BULLDOZER....Give it a perk # slightly higher than the tiger...Let's be honest, who wouldnt love driving a bulldozer on an enemy field and take down all the hangers with one pass =)

1. The bases repair themselves
2. You cannot build bases :aok
-
Actually I was thinkin that the bulldozer could speed up the repairs, not just instantly do it. I also realize that we cant build bases, yet.
-
but does the bulldozer carry any weapons????
NO:aok
-
Dozers have a top speed of 5 MPH if that. They wouldnt be of any use in the game at all unless you use them to plow down the trees at the end of the runway (which is impossible right now.) Besides, you dont need an airfield to land. If I want to land, I make my own airfield even if all thats left of my plane is the cockpit and the fuselage :D
-
Along the same lines.. kinda...

Actually, if you could code in the ability to dynamically alter the landscape, then when a new map is launched, the community could up 'dozers and move those pesky buff-busting hills that keep being put at the ends of the runways.
-
how about we can have bomber craters on runways and dozers can fill them in?
it would seem more realistic in a way u don't float over a bomber crater and it could implement dozers into the game.
-
How about we have it be 'Bob the Builder Online'!
I play to blow stuff up... not to build things.

Well, the use of the bulldozer would require the cumination of air and land forces(just like in real life). It would add more teamwork to the game.:aok

I dont think so, Tim.

Most dozers ive ran will do around 10 MPH hehe, i have a picture of my grandfather pulling a 155mm howitser off an LST on Guadalcanal with the same type dozer that is shown above 8).

If you want a Bulldozer go buy this its probaly only $9.99

Thats a nice dream...
Really what it would do is add another unused vehicle to the list...
-
people would block the runways with dozers:furious

You have to admitt, it's quite an original request :)
