    beach invasion maps... wicked
    i love the original idea of an advanced APC i agree that the current is too weak for late game.

    But currently most late game are just tanks whith the only infantry being those who have just spawned and thnose who bailed out.

    What would be cool, when aircraft are implemented, for the d-day thing would be: one team holds the main land, the other has a little island to spawn on. The island team gets an aircraft factory, and a VF. Infantry would advance to the mainland in whatever amphibious vehicle is implemented, if ever, and then to bring tanks and such pilots have to fly them in. To prevent the aircraft being abused, perhaps a hurt brush, and to make it make sense, 'automated' AA installations. Then it would be like your stuck in the AA crossfire if you try to be a dick and bomb the shit out of everyone.

    Add this ability to APC MKII? Not only would it add an interestng stategic element to possible water maps, it'd serve as a replacement for boats, ships etc. until we get them in the future, if we do.

    REvive dead thread award. If tanks had interchangeable turrets then we could do away with the mkii and make this an option for the light tank or apc or even a new chAsis.

    blizzerd, that looks COOL!!!! the only thing I think you should change is the missile rack into a gun turret, besides that it looks great for BE.

    Amphibious APC and LT/AFV would be nice soon, before both aircraft and ships.

    Really great idea but what if amphibous was a upgrade for every vehicle(excluding arty and heavies) also why not just make it be researched like the light MK2 is.Going out of your way for a better apc when heavies are gonna be on the enemies research quene soon is not very attractive...

    I think Amphib would be a great upgrade option for APCs. I doodled new desings for the NF and BE APCs while on the phone with a travel agent at work the other day. I'll mock up some models to visualize. Both of them would work just fine as Amphibious vehicles.

    Blizzard, isnt that just a striker?

    Yes but as all you have to do to add it is a fairly small code change, it doesn't have to be a earth shattering change.
