Operation Tiger Hunt
« on: June 24, 2011, 03:55:31 PM »
Here is a suggestion which I posted on a other thread a couple of days ago it's called Tiger Hunt.

Every wehr player spawns with one Tiger but only one gets the tiger ace. Every players tiger has unique abilities for example one can use Tank Assault, the other one can call in artillery. Also one should be able to call in light infantry support or recon/air strikes. The Tiger Ace should be able to have a Overkill ability: It shoots faster and deals more damage but after the ability has run out he will get slower for 10 seconds.
 
The allies have a fuel upgraded HQ sector so they can choose their strategy on their own. The map should be big so that the allies spawn around the axis also the axis shouldn't be able to enter the "safezone" of a allied player (maybe place mines?)

There should be a victory points counter. The allies lose points every 10 seconds (maybe 25 points) but they gain points if they manage to destroy a Tiger tank (200 points) (not tiger ace).

If tiger ace has been destroy the axis lose the game (even if there are still tigers on the field).

Maybe there should be a level up system too.

I think it wouldn't be that hard to make because there are already a lot of icons from the Tiger ace campaign. I would personally make the map if possible :P.

Not really, only one group gets Tanks, the other gets all types of units ;D

Seems fun, I would love to play something like this, and there are tons of Tiger skins so its easier to differentiate from each tank, but would they have randomized abilities or would each skin get a stock set of abilities each game?

1 Player has gotta be a Bergetiger! ;D It can repair the other Tigers, and can call in the most support, but is near useless in combat. Maybe has self-repair.

Who should be the Allies, though? The Westerners, or the Soviets? Or both?

Na i think each Tiger should have self-repair, so they won't have to rely on an easily destroyed piece of crap. Maybe though we can get Tank variants. Maybe one gets the Ace, another gets KT, somebody gets Schultz's Tiger, and somebody gets the regular Wehr Tiger. Could be nice, but since we have so many different Tiger skins, I don't think that would even be necessary.

EASILY DESTROYED PIECE OF CRAP?!?!! It's a fucking TIGER, man! Have you never tried to bring 1 of those down before!? :o ::)

I really think it's important to use all Tiger variations available. Maybe include the Königstiger, but i'm not sure... :-\

If you don't understand why i said easily destroyed piece of crap, I was referring to the Bergetiger, not regular Tiger, because your post before the one you shouted at me, mentioned at least one guy with the Bergetiger, which to me was a giant green light to scream at it

Bro, I always use Beregetigers with PE (my most often used faction for your info), and they lack HP and armor. I once tried to use them to repair a bridge on Vire and it was 3 shotted by a 57mm to the frontal armor. I thought, geez, its a Tiger ain't it, should be able to stand up to some punishment as it reps the bridge, but boom and no it just blew up.

Well, it must have received some major nerf in some stupid patch, because in my experience, it's pretty much exactly the same strength as a regular Tiger... If they made it to get destroyed by 3 A-T Gun shots to the front armor, even with Armor Piercing, that's just fucking pathetic...

Exactly.

Plus 57mm's have AP rounds.

Nope - Bergetigers don't seem to take any more damage when repairing/recovering from what i've seen. I wish they would, though...

You need to think about this: If 4 tigers support each other... that's hard :P. If a tiger gets destroyed the player gets an ability to call in a bergetiger & maybe the same reinforcments group like the generic Wehr gets. The other Tigers need to support it if he wants his tiger back :D. I mean noone would just give you another tiger for free.

I don't think a "Player Revive" aspect can happen like that. Maybe the dead player recieves a call in berge for his tiger?
