New Defensive Emplacements

[AREM117]

The new emplacement suggestions are.
Adding a LMG on a sandbag. Deployable minefield 5 mines in an X placement. Tank barriers. Sandbag wall that is impenetrable by vehicles. A TOW emplacement, one like the TOW that is on the Bradley not too powerful but will get the job done.

Per FOB.
1 HMG
2 LMG
1 AA
1 TOW
2 Minefield
15 Sandbag/Razorwire/Sandbag Wall/Tank Barrier

Heh, nice idea, though all I want is the TOW, maybe the tank barriers.

I think the TOW could be implemented if its, the HMG's, and the AA launchers "health" was reduced so that 1 LAT or a few grenades destroy them.

Also, TOW's would need a set look arc, like the HMG's have.

How?

Where are the buttons to deploy them?

What would the LMG bring, that the HMG doesnt?

Minefield, get 2 engineers use the supply crates you built the FB with and you can place 16 mines in this manner iirc

Razorwire vs vehicles needs to be fixed imo, I don't like inter-phasic vehicles/wire. Vehicle going through wire should destroy wire

Tank Traps alla Kashan would be nice

TOWs....hard one....I would venture to say that would be overkill as they are also effective against infantry at range. So if they were implemented, I'd only want them at bunkers, not firebases to preserve gameplay and prevent the spammage.

Every time I've seen razor wire run over it springs back up, so I don't think it's that unrealistic.

Nice ideas, as mentioned above I would make the following
conditions;

Per FOB.
1 HMG = I think 2 are ok
2 LMG = perhaps very close to or attached to FOB itself
1 AA or 1 TOW = If TOW have it within a 25M radius of FOB to stop
the issues mentioned already. (One well placed TOW can be devastating)
2 Minefield = as above I would suggest that this is not required
as long as you have helpful squads.
15 Sandbag/Razorwire/Sandbag Wall/Tank Barrier = Vehicle barriers
are a good idea. But I think game physics would need to be changed
somehow. The current amount of 10 is ok imo.

The tank barriers sound cool, but what are they?

Are they those X things you see placed on the beaches of OP baracuda?
Because they would be really cool.

I'd like burning barriers on Ramiel for the INS team so they can block off roads and force the US down certain approaches. Say 2 barriers within 200m of a hideout

[Psykogundam]

deployable tank traps sounds very interesting i must say, and i think higher,stronger sandbags would be used more than the current ones.
