If someone in one of these buildings is forcing someone else to fly a plane to deal with them, then it's a net gain.

3 story bldgs in the villages on certain maps, the newer maps I believe.

The problem is it’s hard to know which building from the air, even when you know exactly which one on the ground, you won’t see their icon.

Lancasters carpet bombing is easiest way to get them.
They're casting their bait over there, see?

I have heard sometimes said buildings are inspected and smoked from Storches, then bombed, but I have no direct knowledge of that, so
you can pretty much ignore my post.

One fix would be to remove all gv's and make everyone up a fighter

Post screenshots so we as a community know how to find them now. Nothing is going to get fixed so rather expose the glitch and it will be easy Pickens  :salute

I'm also interested in seeing a screen shot showing this building type from the air, and its location in the village.

Thank you Popeye. 

And are those buildings are destroyable with bombs and rockets?   In other words, after being hit will they be rubble with broken walls, etc?  Or do they not show damage?

Non-destroyable. Impenetrable with guns, only a bomb drop will kill occupant. Once inside the walls aren't rendered so you can see out unobstructed but are invisible to opponent.

Sounds like a feature not a defect  :)

Does not matter to me. You can avoid the building. Word gets out pretty quick

When someone says a tank is climbing the canyon wall it is fun shooting them down before they get up there.  :banana:

Also there is a bridge missing that crosses the river. I do not remember which field it is. We usually grab LVT’s to bring in the troops.

Some maps have challenges. Part of the game. Really not a big deal.

There used to be a shore battery that tanks could get into. I do not know if it is still there.

I can drive my M-8 inside enemy tanks, then run when their turret is facing the wrong way. German tanks have really slow turning turrets. 😂.

If you kill the spawn hangar at a v base with 4 hangars, you can camp the hangar from the back to allow troops to get into the map room. I have seen a lot of gv’ers get mad about that. They know they lose the base.

Some air fields have the map room close to the runway. Gv’s and bailed pilots can hide inside the map room.

Panzer H’s, Panzer F’s, Hetzers, Jagpanthers, and Panthers often become prey of the M-8. I often get called a cheater. I did not cheat. I figured out a technique to disable them from behind. Aside from the hetzers, the German tanks have slow turrets. If they are not paying attention I get behind them and pop their turret.  Once the turret is disabled I can take my time. Two shots to the engine from behind and the Jagpanther is mine L O L. I killed one recently. I do not think the driver was paying attention. He called me a cheater. I put four rounds into the Jagpanther in total for the kill.

Some maps have some really large bushes. You can fit a M-8 inside the bush. You can kill storches :with the píntle gun if you shoot the pilot or maingun them if they come in really low. Many come in really low.

If an ammo bunker is burning you can park a M-8 on top. Lots of big boy tanks drive right by and never notice. I do not know of a way to kill the tiger 2 with a m-8. If anyone knows please explain.


The game may have some bugs to some folks, but to me they are features we can have fun with.
