Title: Tank Corpses
Post by: Paladin88 on May 10, 2011, 04:49:58 AM
Is there some way to implement the removal of tank corpses. It is really annoying when you are trying to cross a bridge and the bloody thing is in the way and is uncrushable unless you bring in heavy tanks. My suggestions are the following:

1) let all tanks crush tank corpses. (a very basic solution I know)
OR
2) Give all engineers the ability to "salvage" (you don't have to give the munitions bonus just the damage and removing effect)

only wehr can salvage wrecks but I think soviet should be able to as well, in theory of course.
the tank wrecks give the battlefield flavor, and cover :P :)

Don't worry I know that... its just that I want to be able to remove them at least... sort of how engineers cut barbed wire, you know?

Tank carcasses should continue to block, since that adds a more tactical element to the battle. If it's blocking a chokepoint *cough* BRIDGEMAP *cough* then you can order your units to force attack it by clicking attack move and then the carcass.

It's a vanilla feature, so there's no point in discussing it  ::)

This is a non-issue, all wrecks can be crushed by heavier tanks or destroyed by AT/Arty/Tank gun fire... even KT carcasses.

Tank corpses are invaluable cover later on in games as the majority of heavy cover generally gets destroyed over the early-mid duration of the match.

Topic locked since it's not going to happen.
