Title: Land based gun batterys
Post by: Forker on September 07, 2007, 04:13:21 PM
Has it been discussed about having a couple single barrel 5" or 90mm gun batterys installed at a vehicle base? They could use the extra air defense.

thats not a bad idea,in the new map that Nhawk made the country due North has a CV spawn right off of a Vehical base.It should have atleast 1 SB to defend it's self.

One of the AvA maps (I forget the name) has vehicle bases that have 3 manned acks and 3 8 inch guns. It would be cool if HTC would ditch the current V base and switch to that one.

Don't think so.   5 inch puffy should only exist on ships.


Start flying more!

A couple of manned 88's that could switch between AA puffy ammo and AP rounds would be great. :D

They should be stationary and count as GV both when you kill and get killed. Downtime should be same as regular manned ack, and if VH is down they will stay destroyed until VH is up again. One of them should be placed close to maproom.

the 37mm field ack dosen't quite cut it, the 90mm or the 88mm would be a nice addition especially when it comes to the high alt bomber  attacks.

Agreed. I've wanted something land-based to lob at the 20K buff missions over bases.
