Sm.79 Sm.82 G.50 Cr.42
Agreed! :aok

how many troops can it carry?

Ditto, that's the key here.

At least 30 without bombs (irc it is 32 troops & supplies). If 10 troops, then 1500kg of ords; say 3x500kg or 6x250kg; 20 troops, prob. only 1x500kg or 2x250kg bombs. The SM.82 had two decks, troops in lower deck & cargo above; with bombs the upper deck was removed & troop capacity was reduced. If 4000kg ords are carried there is no room for troops or supplies.

I believe HT went ovr this before...if he made a troop carrier with the ability to carry 30 troops, the maproom would have to be upped and 30 troops would have to go in to make the base cap.
Any confirmation?
-
I suppose they can set it up as they like. 1 troop or 1,000 troops.
-
Sounds like a great idea to me :aok...
Like the whole SM79 family anyway... Was good plane, thinking
HE111 like, but a little tougher, and extra engine...
Carrying bombs for the last few bldg's, defensive guns, and 20 troops..
I think it might actually have an effect in game as well..
Changes in tactics, add new dimension...
Game needs something new, MA's are gettin kinda stale..
good idea, <S>

Yup that's the gist of it.

Piffle & Phooey I say! HT can make it whatever he wants (for better or worse); HOWEVER if this lovely klunker were brought in & troop cap set at 10, then you could take three bases in one run (on the order of 0.001% chance). Like I suggested, perk it for the abilities of more than 10 troops, having ords & def. armament.
Make me WANT to fly goonzies!!!

The C47 could carry 28 troops. 10 troops for capture and 10 troops to drop was a gameplay choice, not based on aircraft limitations.
-
...If 10 troops, then 1500kg of ords...
That sounds nice. Makes for a great goon+vulcher.
Johny: I just got bombed!
Teeter: LOL! By what?
Johny: A GOON!
Teeter: n00b.

But what would actually call it in the game? can't call it a 'goon' as that belongs to the C-47. Maybe a SMiley?....

I would suggest it be capped at 10 troops as well.
This would be a great perk plane for support flyers. Not only be able to deliver troops, but also flatten those last couple buildings.
I like it.
-
Precisely! Would be very handy. This would be a lovely addition to the game, along with the HE-111. :D
-
Nope. Bad idea. Every undefended V Base would be taken by one guy on one sortie. Bomb the ack, drop troops, done deal.
[EDIT] Unless they put star-wars ack on the VB's to compensate.

Can't still do this in two sorties?. If all you are looking to do is pork fields, someone wil always game the game. If what ever small load of bombs carried by that plane could be dropped that precisely more power to them, but this too would be easy to fix. Only allow half as many bombs as gun mounts at a vbase. If you are capping troops carried, you might as well cap bombs.
Many times I've flown in a C47 only to have one last building standing. While loitering around waiting for someone to hit it, a stray fighter finds me, or the ack starts to pop and I get shot down with a full compliment of troops.
Bottom line, it would be a fun perk plane if properly balenced (which I'm sure HTC would account for).

It kind of looks like a flying refrigerator, but I agree this would be a good addition to the game. :aok

Always thought the manned ack should be a 20mm quad mount at V-bases; maybe the auto acks could be 40mm Bofors, like on the PT boats? :rock
