Seeing them won't release their control over the battery. I still agree with it (As long as the enemy can't see the ID tag). :aok

i don't know,if someone new was in there and wanted to practice on a target that will actully sink.he willl get flamed and that would be it.

his aces high experiance would suck and he probably wouldn't pay 15$ a month just to get flamed.which means less $$$ in htc's pocket,which overall means less inprovements to the game.

At least we'd know who it was...

How about if someones in the SB and you have a better rank you can kick that person out of the SB/5" gun's.

Bad idea. They paid their $15, same as you. However, I'd sure as Hell like to know who's manning the gun, especially if they're just tying it up for the other side.

yes i agree it is a game.made to have fun not to kill a cv which would kill a usually good fight.

Bump. We need to at least be able to see who is in the shore battery. We're experiencing lots of folks now who jump in second account, and who bring the cv in and man the battery so that th cv cannot be fired upon.  :neener:

We all had to learn somehow... we all knew nada when we started AH. 

I'd go along with the name icon, but not the ability to kick a lower ranked player.

Would seem to me that adding an icon to gunners wouldn't really work.  Imagine trying to take off from a CV/fleet with a lot of gunner's icons cluttering up the screen.  What I would think could work would be to add the name to the screen in the hangar when you're selecting to your plane/gv/gun position.  Or number the gun positions and provide a ledger with who's where by number.

Then again it could just start witch-hunts. :)

There you go!  "Position is occupied by <game id>" in the hanger.  That way it wouldn't be there for you to see on the field so as to misinterpret it from a friendly tank/flak.
