@Gufu, I was thinking of letting MG armed vehicles shoot at helicopters, but normal infantry shooting at them? they wouldn't last a minute... and IRL you can't hit a helicopter with a rifle anyways, it's machineguns, .30cal and above you have to worry about.

Have you even seen "Apocalypsis now"? The morons flew so low, it was possible to simply throw grenade inside. >_>

They shot a flare, but these pilots aren't morons, and even so, there's a Machinegun in each doorway to warn off anyone willing to try...

Umm... It isn't a UH1, it isn't a UH60, or any other type of helicopter, it's a composite "inspired" by real life ones, could you live with a 4 bladed rotor or would it really annoy you?

Nothing annoys me, Lt A1br3cht. #Tongue

I just thought it was a UH-1 since you mentioned Vietnam. Other than that its all good Cool

Appearently they missed the "hiding" part of the north vietnam forces.

But they cant hide whilst throwing a grenade into a helicopter, the leaping up and whirling arm give you away, you know?

If the helicopter shoots at me, and I can't hide, then I'm going to shoot back. I think the little men fighting would too.

Maybe a redeye then Gufu,handheld SAMs aren't a new idea.
But yeah, maybe they will have the ability to spray a little tead skywards on the assumption it won't do much damage...

No, not that realistic Wink

It's realistic in a way it is more like RA1 the RA2 when looking at the technology. Also, rifle infantry use grenades vs tanks now instead of firing their rifles.
Also, next time post it in the other topic. I splitted it because I hate it when ppl go off-topic Wink

then an infatry WOULD shoot at the helicopter. LT's logic is that he would not by pure virtue that he's afraid he will be shot at. If a dude can take more than one bullet, than he wouldn't be afraid of returning fire to the heli.

IDK if YR offers this, but there really should be two flying classes, one for low flying objects like heleicopters and then one for normal airplanes. Actually, you could probably fudge it by using the hover code, because you guys probably aren't using any hover units, right?

I could use EVverses in Npatch to have a "Helicopter" armour that would allow me to choose what could attack helis, and the hover code means it would be able to let people out and load them up from flight, right?

ummm, then it won't be able to load people...Could be useful for gunships though as IIRC hover trans are normal vehicles and normal vehicles turn to face their targets...
