The wish is focussed upon removing the ability to identify heavy tanks as opposed to medium or light tanks.

IMO then as above we could have

TNK = Medium & Heavy Tanks (requiring ordinance)
AAA = Armoured Anti Aircraft  (its shooting at you!)
AVE = Armoured Vehicle (HE cannon can kill this)
GPV = General purpose vehicle (MG's can kill this)

Um no. Nope.  Anything that degrades the ability to engage high threat targets is just ridiculous.  What's next? No icon 262's?  :rolleyes:

And you do this because you have some complex that doing so gets you aroused in some way? Or you want to force ppl to play the game how you think they should play, i.e. they shouldn't spawn camp. 

The solution to a Tiger2 should be another Tiger 2 or some guys with skill, although you will never see one anywhere but on concrete because of surfinn and his type...

Maybe those that keep uppin at a camped spawn should stop???

+1 to the NO icons, TT on CraterMA would be fun again.
They're casting their bait over there, see?

To your first point Isn't that what your suggesting? Don't ya want to force me not to bomb your perk tank?

Second point. I see tiger2s and panthers at spawn camps all the time usually high on a ridge where any normal tank ords just bounce off of them. Only way to cure that problem is with a 1000lb bomb. I gv at spawns that are camped all the time. I usually give up about 10 tanks and take a few with me.  :) Then the bombs come  :t

there's nothing wrong with killing people in the game for doing things you do not like or agree with.

it's what makes the game great.

don't like lame acm? outfly them and kill them

don't like spawn campers? go kill them

don't like vulchers? go kill them.

don't like hordes? go kill them.

etc. etc.

 Make the icom very small like a real signal flag that was used to identify friendly tanks. Say the size of the top of the turret. a plane would have to get very close to be sure they were bombing enemy targets. To make it even better turn on friendly bomb damage so a friendly aircraft can kill his own tanks if he drops on them. Friendly fire is a part of war so why now have it in aces high too. If you don't want bombed take the time to go take out the ordnance at the offending air base, Problem solved.
