Amass the countryside with them... :cry
We're not the 20th FG "LOCO BUSTERS" for nothing you know! :furious
-
We have squads that specialize in fighters, bombers, GVs, jabo, ships, gunners, and now we have a squad that specializes in taking out trains? :neener:
+1 For the trains
And since BAR made the thread +1 for M18

I think we have trains... they are just very rare.

I honestly can't remember the last time I saw a train in game.

They only were near strats, and now since the strats are in the back...

Trains seem nothing more than a waste of server processing and downloadable client content in the game these days, a real shame since of the three convoy types in-game they offer the greatest challenge to a single or group of players looking to do some convoy-seeking and destroying.
-
+1 to bringing them back. When I first started AH, I accidentally ran over a train at low altitude and got a hail of ack for my trouble.

Bar, the trains are moving the sheep around! :old: There is alot of trains by strats, but I haven't seen te sheep stations yet... :noid

+1 to the trains, and when you add them, add strategic bombing to aceshigh! Chooo chooo!

Ever took an M-8 and just sat on a long bridge waiting for a train to show up? Think thats fun, try it with an LVT-4.

Trains did not leave; they are still there. As pointed out, they are the supply mechanism for strats. When we had single strats all around the map, it seemed like they were all over the place. The new mega-citystrat is typically supplied by just one train, and the HQ by another. So, we actually do have fewer trains which are farther behind enemy lines, but we do still have trains.
The guideline for building maps is that strats are supplied by trains and bases are supplied by truck convoys (some coastal bases can be supplied by barges). I'm not sure what would happen if some mapmaker used trains for some of the bases, just to have more trains to hunt...
-
good idea. and i thought that they resupplied 1 or 2 towns too?

ive stood in front of one with my pilot and his handgun. :D bad idea. :(
as to the actual idea... :aok +1

If you don't destroy every single car of the train, it just respawns a mile down the track and eventually reaches it destination.
I sent someone here a film of it and he confirmed it.
-
I seen a train carrying m18 turrets and hulls :noid maybe your wish will come true :x

do you think the demand is great enough for something like that to happen?

I'm not sure. Shooting trucks is safer, since they don't have auto-ack like trains do. I can't think of any reason a map maker couldn't choose the convoy type for a base to be a train - it's one of three choices we have (train, convoy, barge).

easy ways to stop trucks: hit the tires with the hull/coaxial mg, or wait until it might hit a hill.

i know trains are there. but since when was it fun to fly 45 minutes NOE just to kill a train near an enemy base and over a damn city full of ack?

It's a beastiality joke. Some people in this world get their sick kicks by having sex with sheep. This is more common in rural areas where women can be few, but sheep are plenty.

Troll harder, you obviously haven't been playing long enough to know that to a cartoon pilot, a sheep is fine too.

While they're at it, add an occasional staff car out in the countryside that, if destroyed, would delay rebuild time to some small degree. They could probably just stretch the jeep chassis a bit and just put a body on it.
