Idea I had. Dont flame it, read it in it's entirety. Ive triple checked all numbered values, theyre = to what I want them to be.

   -   Man Down! (Passive): The medic will run to any ‘wounded’ downed squad members within a 15 unit radius (same coding as mine detectors automatically removing mines within X radius of the squad, when stopped), whether that player’s or an ally’s, pick him up, and bring him back to his squad at full health. Will then immediately seek out other bodies to pick up and bring back to squads. No cost, no button to be pressed, is ‘always on’.

What if the whole squads dead?

[TheVolskinator]

Medic isnt part of a squad, its a seperate unit.

Riflemen squad 10 game units away is attacked by a charging volk, 1 man is downed, wounded. Medic waltzes over, picks the guy up, walks back to the rifle squad, who goes from 5/6 to 6/6 men in it. Nearby allied tommie squad loses 1 man, medic walks over, picks guy up, brings him to that tommie squad. Etc. Its hed move (when carrying) at the very, VERY slow vcoh speeds, so its not like he'll recover everyone. Also shit expensive ^^

[Mysthalin]

Seems like something you'd use together with elite inf spam.. Imagine fighting airborne in smoke that are also getting recovered like that all the time?

I know full well what you meant. I mean what if an entire squad dies and bodies are on the floor?

[TheVolskinator]

If so, it could probably be coded to either A drop the body or B the body just dissapears when the medic reaches the spot where the squad was (taking from vcoh, if the medic is walking towards a body and that man "dies", the medic will still walk all the way to where the body is before returning to the medic station. If the medic station is destroyed, the medic will still walk out and recover any bodies within the search radius, but upon his return to the bunker, the medic will cease to exist, along with the body he picked up).

LVT-4 Amtrak. Ive wanted to see one of these in CoH for a damn long time, though Im not too sure how easy or hard it would be to model. It would pretty much be a sort of WW2 APC, a cross between, say, an M3 halftrack (troop transport) and maybe an M8 (armor and .50 cal + .30 cal. Ofc no cannon.)

There was an LVT(A)-4 that was armed with a 75mm howitzer, similar to the M8 Scott (M5 stuart variant). It would lack the troop carrying ability, but would offer lightly armored firepower, in likeness to an M8 with an LeGT cannon strapped to it).

The LVT-4 was utilized in the European Theater, in such exploits as helping the 2nd Ranger Battalion cross the Rhine river. It was also used in material transport post-D-Day, and also in some hedge to hedge fighting in particularly under-manned sectors for the first month or so after the initial invasion. IMO, interesting and not-too-unbalanced addition.

US Officer can purchase Panzerschreck !

[Malgoroth]

Nazi dirty bomb.

V1 explosion that irradiates half the map and causes a severe DOT and nasty debuffs.

German railway gun.

V1 explosion that recharges every 10 minutes. Still less OP than FOO.

ME 262 air superiority

For the duration of the game - no allied planes. No para-dropped troops and no commando gliders (fuckers can walk), no recon runs, no white phosphorus, no strafes, no typhoons, nothing. AB and commando players can suck it.
