You guys *could* have air-support, question is if you should
an apache is a bit too much for a bunch of rag-tag insurgents

Rebels should just have a fallout new vegas boomer tribe

MRLS, Rocket Launchers, Howitzers and a B-29 as their support options

It's a Lambda Apache AH64 deployed for the entire Eastern Europe area as air support, a remnant of Ramstein Airbase, the equivalent of a rare event character equipped with rockets from WW-2 up to 1999, and a vortigaunt attached helicopter cannon.

For goodness sake White Forest has a Mil Mi8, one Apache that has only appeared once is not gonna break someone's neck (yet)

To go back a few pages (since we're still on the subject):




I think both of these statements are correct.

You can redefine what the lore means for the server, just be sure to communicate it clearly where it's needed.

It's what I've been saying for several hours now but apparently it's a very unreasonable thing.

Apparently treating Combine players as people on the same level deserving of respect and fairness is absolutely out of the question for many. Even staff members, which is worrying.

that's the entire problem
one apache that exists for cameo events is not going to do anything outside of morale

something we can reasonably build, and use (infrequently) is leagues better than "oh look the military remnants are here!!!" LARPing

it's nice that you're trying with this, but we have zero counters to synths and it's more reasonable (and RP potential) to have something we can drop improvised bombs with than someone showing up with a crate full of disposable rockets.

I'm perfectly fine with treating my fellow faction players with respect.

I'm not going to pretend someone's Mr. Rogers when that person has been harassing people (and staff) all week over dumb shit because someone dared criticise their perfect whitelist.

Could be used an uniting factor, Lambda uncovered Mi-8's.

Lambda can (potentially) provide Chopper support under X condition (Some figure calls for it/agrees on it). Since cops don't fly the choppers either.

I'm just saying model availability
thought I had an autogyro someone ported from somewhere but I must have lost it in a harddrive crash

anyway, here's an alternative:

pretty much the gestalt of this idea, except the helicopter is unarmed so there's more incentive to use it for scouting/moving stuff/dropping barrel bombs

ok i gotta be real that is some obscene level cope on your behalf trying to explain why hunters arent OP with "takes TEN vortigaunt shots to kill"

bro dont talk about cope when it's not just one vort shooting, but 2 vorts and several rebels

3 seconds flat is what it takes if people just... shoot?

why is the hunter putting itself in a position where 2 vorts and several rebels are shooting it
what is it just running at them in a straight line in an open field

perhaps killing it is not a task for a SINGLE vortigaunt...........

making itself a support and at the same time putting itself in a big disadvantage to be defeatable so it's not unfair would be the closest thing

the question should be: why did it come out with less damage received than when it was taking s2m potshots from far away and got hit by one or two vorts
