I understand the ground dudes don't like being egged but what I don't understand is what is the point of just shooting each other over and over without having a enemy base to capture? Isn't the base the prize for winning the battle?
Making bases uncapturable isn't going to stop guys from bombing GVs. Fighter support, Whirbels, field guns, Ostis and 88s will stop the bomb****s. Use the resources already provided and leave people alone to play their own game.

There's a difference in killing and griefing.

I find little to no joy in base taking unless taking that base opens up a spawn battle on the other side. I'd much rather run around in my M18 shooting panthers and KT's!

What's the point of having V bases? A bases have gv spawn points. Turn all the V bases into A bases, it will be less wasted airspace and the GV drivers will still have the same spawn points.

4 hangars is what I would imagine.

No need for a seperate hangar for vehicles if you get rid of V bases.

dude we spend an insane amount of time playing a game.  of course we have serous mental issues.  I have certified letters from 3 different doctors to prove it.

that reminds me, what are the blue pills for again?

Dickwads, eh?  Just because someone wants to bomb tanks?

Some live for a2a kills, some for g2g kills, some for g2a kills and some for a2g kills.

Me?  I prefer tequila...

In addition to this let's add automated 17 lbers/88's around all types of fields, walking smart mines at spawn points, a force field around all airplanes/vehicles, and a dot command to ask permission of any one with a red icon if it is ok to attack them.   :D

No, let's not.

Off topic, but IMHO the other reason for VBases is that it provides some separation between the GVs and the AC.  If you have only air bases, the side with the base has instant ground support, precluding any sort of interesting GV fights.

Air superiority. If you don't have it your surface forces will suffer at the hands of the side that does have it. War is hell.
