As we are all well aware, Fleets just don't last very long in the arenas and have basically just
become targets for heavy bombers or magnets for suicide low alt furballs.
My idea is to introduce LSTs into the fleets, these could be detached from a fleet
when a certain distance from land, be driven ashore, and GV guys who had been aboard
it while it was still -part- of the fleet could then put ashore in Shermans, MkIVs and
anything smaller that we currently have, within numerical limts of course as the intent
here is not to unbalance gameplay but to enhance it somewhat.
Arguments for or against?

Not a bad idea +1

i like the idea, but i can easily see how ppl would begin to whine about the idea.
if we were able to launch tanks from task groups, it would pretty much make the lvt2 obsolete, and it would therefore become a hanger queen.
and im sure there will be some ppl that complain about "cvs launching tanks, wahhhh" and stuff.
but i personally like the idea.

I've been calling for LSTs for a while as a sort of mobile VH base. But I see your point.
One way around this would be to have a sort of capturable points near the shoreline which LVTs would have to secure before LSTs could land sort of like establishing a beach head before you would be able to bring these things in anyway

its a great idea sir.maybe limit the afv to say a light tank or car...like the m-8 and add something like the stuart,or chafee,panzer 3
