As you might expect you need to search the roads and railway tracks for convoys and trains. The convoys and trains run regularly from depots to bases and strat targets. I've never seen a barge at sea so I don't really know where to look for them. Be careful of the trains as they have some ack guns for defense.
In the smaller MA maps where things are rather crowded going along low looking for convoys is going to get you bounced by some marauding spitdweeb or runstang, on AKDesert you can go hunting in quieter areas if you are careful.
The most effective method of dealing with them is straffing or rockets.

they only efficient way to kill trucks is with rocks.

they take alot of MG rounds to kill. best way is to park an M16 on the rd.

i've never even seen a train...but i hear the ack is uber so, let 'em be.


BTW - does killing the truck spawn point have any effect?

By the way matt the picture that marauder posted is actually a barge not a train if that makes sense, well it is technically a train but due to some bug barges are also shown as trains, understand? :)

ok If you want to find a train fly to one of the strat targets, i.e city, HQ, radar factory, ammo factory etc as all these have stations that supply them,

To find trucks just follow the roads that lead from towns, Vehicle bases etc.

Trucks are easy to kill as they dont shoot back,

trains are gits, more salamanderly than a salamanderly thing on a porcupine.
so dont get too close

:D
