Twin shore bat with anti air!  I can dig it.  Maybe our virtual admirals will stop parking the CV 2 miles from shore so often.

EDIT:  The LVT spawn would need to be changed to be closer to the beach though.

To make it fair, keep the rear of the shore bat open.  When someone jumps to that position, a few troops man the guns.  Kill the troops, and the gunner hits the tower and has to re-up to continue firing.

EDIT:  That way, the attackers have to brave the anti-air guns to stop the operator yet it wouldn't be a suicide run.

2nd EDIT:  The troops manning the gun should also be doing the Macarena.

Sounds like a nice idea to me.  Also, some better damage modelling on the SB would be nice...I've always thought it vaguely ridiculous that you can destroy a big ugly lump of reinforced concrete by firing a lot of rifle calibre bullets at it :P

HTC wasn't all that worried about shore batteries and used a pretty cheap concrete company.  Saved a few bucks.

Let's just revisit the whole thing (fleets have been updated after all) and make them more of a gun complex than a single 6" tube.  Couple big rifles, some AA, a decent stereo system, some pin ups...

Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.
