Title: Troops
Post by: The Grinch on November 25, 2009, 09:54:44 AM
Ok.
I have a question.

When you take down the troops barrage at one base, then you cant spawn troops into that base you want to capture.
What about if you take down the troops at a portbase then.
Then you cant spawn troops from the CV that belongs to that port.
Or. When the troops barrage are down, you can only spawn 50 or 100 troops from that CV.

     I'm not real clear on what you are saying, but it sounds like you'd like it harder to capture bases. As far as the CV thing, ports are generally remote and without a CV there to help defend it would be too easy to take. Sound of the best captures are those port setups with the CV offshore and you have the pound the resupplying LVTs to get it.

No the cv has its own troops, They're called marines  :D. They will continue to spawn even if the troops at the port is down. when the troops at the port are down, you just can't get troops to adjoining spawns without resupplying the port! I hope this helps, and a little punctuation would be helpful to get your point across.

Oh.. i see... you are a smart one.... By the way.... the marines of yours. Well here comes a secret. Our Hunter squad sent the marines and the seals from Norway back to America.... Thay are not that good.... :x

Look mate, a little advice here, coming from a neutral party who has no quarrel with EITHER of you.

It doesn't do to come on the board, as a question then when someone helps you, to start making smart alec comments thats just going to annoy everyone.

He made a comment. Punctuation is a good thing to use. It makes you sound more grown up. Now you could be 15, or you could be 50 behind that computer screen of yours. Personally I dont really care. But if you type with no punctuation and then start mouthing off, people will take you for being 12. Respect here is reasonably hard to gain, and to get it, you have to respect those who already have it.

Jaeger went on about the marines. We have one or two vets about here, maybe one or two from the marines. Maybe its better not to go on and say 'They're not that Good!' when those men took the Pacific. Jaeger wasn't on about  the men themselves, but explaining why taking the troops down at the port wouldn't effect the troops on board the CV. He wasn't meaning it as an insult to you.

Now, as I said, I have no quarrel, im just going to try and help you out. Best of luck  :aok

I'm pretty sure the American marines would be happy to go up against any country's squads and test out whether or not they are good. :salute

Thx... But i do NOT need any learning when it comes to writing. I did a mistake, and some just need to point that out. I came with a question, not how I'm writing.... Some needs to read between the lines and try to answer, and not tell someone when something is wrong.

You know mate, Im trying to help. If you attack me when im trying to help, then your beyond hope. I suppose thats what I get for thinking that MAYBE there may be some good people on this board, caus theres less and less of them showing their faces.

I wash my hands.

I'm not attacking you. Because I'm from Norway explains alot when it comes to writing. There are some missunderstanding.

So what you are saying is if there are no troops at the coressponding port, then limit the ability of the CV right?

Same as if you pork ORD at the coresponding port, limit the ord available at the CV?

50 or 100 troops?  I think a number that would have more impact would be 10 or 20.  Normally only 1 or 2 players will launch from a CV with troops for a base capture.

Now, what would be interesting is this...

The CV has respawned from the port.  It now has a full load of troops - whether that number be 50, 100, 1000.  Once the CV sails, that's all the troops it gets.  Every time you spawn an LVT for a base capture and it gets killed, the CV loses those 10 troops.  Once you've spawned and lost enough LVT's, the CV runs out of troops - it's out to sea and babies don't grow up that fast.

Once the CV has lost its troops to the point it can't spawn an LVT with 10 troops, you have to sail back to your home port to "resupply" the CV with troops again - assuming you still own the port.  Or perhaps sail to the nearest friendly coastal base to resupply the CV troops.

I think that's exactly what the grinch meant to say, just wasn't very clear.

Killing troops at a port has no correspondence with how many troops/lvts can spawn from that CV. You can spawn LVTs as much as you desire from the fleet as long as it is not sunk and CV respawning. Killing troops at a port will only deny you supplies/troops to that field or any spawn that Field goes to. Killing the ORD/Ammo bunkers at a port will only deny you from having rockets/torps on your PT boats at the port's spawn

Hope this puts things into light

But there are some ports that do not spawn in to another bases

Then use a C47(goon).  Gezz it's not that complicated. :rolleyes:
