Title: Capturing vehicles
Post by: taa_web on May 15, 2012, 02:39:53 PM
hey just a suggestion. Is it possible to create that infantry can capture vehicle. IE special unit infantry that can eliminate crew inside a halftrack/jeep then somebody can take it.

with note that capturing vehicle will be given delay like capturing strategic point (troops learning the vehicle)

It will break the original gameplay.

In CoH OF the bergetiger could occasionally "capture" undamaged PE vehicles in the King tiger scenario. did'nt always work but it worked often enough to investigate a little. muniHT isnot the same as a pzIV though. :o

I would say it is possible, even if it is a bug. And since it was in OF that makes it vCOH eh?

Do you mean the campaign mission where you attack Arnhem? Those vehicles are probably scripted to join your side if you repair them, the same as in one of the ToV missions.

I believe Arnem was the scenario. You could be right. The vehicles were not damaged to begin with, in the upper armory area if i recall. You are doubtless correct.

QFT, this has been discussed before and can be closed.

and the line stating:
