AMS defence


Why not make the AMS two man and have a single gunner position on it.

In reality there is no bloody way that such an important vehicle would have no defensive measures except for squashing people.

Just a thought.

The invisibilty bubble (when it actually works right) is a strong defense.

Arrow I dunno


Thats not that much of a great idea, what kind of gun would it have? If its just a chain gun then its not going to be much of a defense, and if its a cannon well.. that's a little to much firepower for an AMS...

I think keeping the AMS gunless is a good thing. It goes back to the whole team-play issue. If you want a defense for your AMS, have a buddy get in a reaver/lightning/whatever. This game is about teamplay, not individual play!

No gun please, the AMS is getting reworked and is going to be much better when it does.

Oh, I see them quite often. They're usually the ones NOT lying in their own smoking debris. Besides, my point is this. By adding guns to AMSes, you only encourage people not to join up with a good squad and work as a team.

Just because ya dont have the coordination to wait for an escort/escort an AMS doesnt mean theres a flaw with the AMS itself.

Quite a few.

Spitfire turrets are not good for AMS defense; a ring of spits will give away an AMS to air units.
