We've got dar circles, and vehicle spawns.
Why not have a clipboard map option showing the convoy routes?
Actually, for that matter, as an option to strengthening the Strat system make convoys a more valuable strat target.
-
Yeah!
-
Mmm uber trains of death.
-
Yep!:aok
-
Amen to anything that will bring more strat back into the game.
Fully destroying a Train should be worth at least 10 perks to a fighter. After all that thing shoots back!
Convoys should be worth 5 easily.
Bump up the frequency a bit so your odds are a bit better of finding one.
-
There is a map with the convoy routes. I'm not sure which one, but you'll notice odd, one-pixel-thick lines poking out of every field and strat. There's your lines.
One of the third party map making tools will export such an overlay for the mapmaker to include in their clipboard map, if they wish.
-
Yes, but that's is part of the map itself. I'm talking an in-game overlay like the Show Vehicle Spawns when you right-click the map.
-
Id espically love that feature if it was added, I remember when I did strats I had to search around for convoys, and attacking the trains was my fav part of hitting strat. With the idea you have id know where to search, hit target and RTB a lot faster.:aok

put manable guns on convoys, trains and at factories too.

Are you on about land convoys or add sea convoys? Sea convoys you be good fun well just need a beaufighter then:aok
-
Yes.
;)

Not to get off subject but when a squad lines up single file when flying McCalls Convoy song comes on.

I like the idea of being able to kill trains, especially if they can shoot at you first :D

They already shoot back. From personal experience they're probably one of the most accurate auto-acks in the game.

Easy enough. no need to put it on the Map as an optioin. Reason: There is a road coming out of every base(Convoy), A railroad out of every factory(Train), and the convoy/train runs about every 8 minutes. (I have a lot of time on my hands when spawn camping or milk running in gvs:noid ) I don't know about the supply barges though.

Then it might be cool to have manned acks on the trains/convoys.
