cvs ports and lvts

[rogerdee]

Ok this part of the game is becoming a bit of a joke ,you de-ack a port kill the vh kill the cv and a lvt spawns feet dry and 1 supply run all the guns are fully up,rinse repeat for the next few hours.

I think cv groups should have a couple of transport and supply ships from which the lvts and supplies come from.You would still get the same effect as above untill the supply ships are sunk as well as the cv.

Sink cv no fighter air craft sink the supply ships no lvts and no troops,it would make it almost as hard to get a port if a cv was sitting there but take away some of the gameyness.

Also it may  make cv attacks and defence more inportant,not only will people be going for the cv they would need to sink the supply ships as well to stop lvts with troops taking there base.At the moment you can destroy every ship but pt boats and cv will still spawn.

OK now you lot can shoot me down in flames

...1 supply run all the guns are fully up...

I thought ack was on a timer. I believe supplies only affect the time that strat stuff is down...fuel, ammo, radar, etc..

i think you're right. 45 minutes for auto ack, and 15 for manned ack. hangar is only 15 minutes too i think....it is only 15 minutes for vh and fh on airbases, and vbases.

Auto ack is resupplied.  It takes more than one supply drop to bring it up.  4-5 if its in your zone and double if it's not.

Soft guns are down for 15 minutes and cannot be resupplied.

I do think we should have a few supply ships to tag along and when you sink those, your LVT's are gone. But, if the CV is still alive, the supply barges respawn next to the CV in 10-15 minutes?

Rogerdee, last night I was at the port when you de-aked it in you 190.  I then dry spawned the LVT's to get the ack right back up.  It was completely effortless on my part, and got about 10 perk points to boot.

I agree, it is a 'gamey' feature and should be removed.

[CAP1]

to me, there's only 1 good reason for the ports, and the cv's.

take a cvm and go attack a port, or a coastal base.

see the fight that ensues.

AI ack is down 45 mins without resupply. If you resupply, it takes 8 supply drops to bring ack back up
from fresh dead.

Good idea's 


Unfortunately it will take up to 2 weeks to impliment

I'd like to see no LVTs or PTs once the CV is down since that's supposedly the hanger they spawn from.  That would solve the whole problem.

LVTs come from LSTs right?  And LSTs can dry spawn them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:LSTs_325,_388;1016032501.jpg

It would be nice, however, if LSTs were modeled and LVT spawning stopped if the LSTs are sunk.

I brought this up a few times in the wishlist to no avail, but i love the idea!

Hey Rog how about some punctuation

no. ive seen the scenario in the OP happen, just not in 1 supp run, been a 2 or 3 minimum. Rooks deack base, Bish/Nit keep CV nearby and resup it all night long till we give up, or somehow take it.
