Initial reaction, it is too easy. One set of Lancs with a moderately skilled pilot can probably take half the town down in one pass, definitely in two. 75% or 80% might be better. Even 90% + the flag eliminates having 12 guys looking for the one last building for 5 minutes, which was the worst thing about the previous system.

I LOVE the flag, though. Much needed improvement.

I'm a win the war kinda guy and I'm stoked they included this in the patch. I rolled in with a panzer today and brought a white flag in by myself, however; the enemy rolled in with some tank killers and prevented any help from reaching me with troops or ammo. (A p40 was wreaking havoc O_o). I would think 65% would be fine. Taking out the main section of town and maybe 2 or 3 outskirt towns would be enough. Can't think...must...take....townnn nnn *logs on*   :devil  :devil  :devil  :joystick:

My thought is too easy.  I think the number needs to be closer to 75% instead of 50% down.

A little more difficulty please. THe flag is kewl though.
Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

 I would suggest freezing further damage to the town once the flag is raised.  Or raise it to 51% needs to be destroyed.

Would be nice, if capturing bigger airfields would require more damage to town than small airfields...

I think they should try: kill 100% of town but have the flag change, if thats still to hard for most then drop down by 5-10% at a time till they find a good %. 50% is way to low, that's like the old towns.

Interesting concept.  I might suggest the other way around though.

I too think that for all fields, 50% is way to low and that at least 85 closer to 90 would be more in order.

But,  large fields could stay around 60, med around 75, small around 90 might be interesting.

Great idea with the flags. Many times troops were let out when a building still up somewhere ruining a well planned mission. A small squad can now have some chance at capturing a base. Time will tell if the % of town down needs to be tweeked. Got to start somewhere and 50% is a good place to start. Thank you hitech and co. for all the new additions to the game.  :aok

Love the flag but town is way too easy to take. We rolled 3 bases last night with a boston , 110 and a m3

Agreed. 80-90% of town needs to be taken down.  Everything else is great though.  Flag is awesome.

My thoughts exactly, 75% seems like a good middle ground..........LOVE the flag though  :aok a great addition
