Ok just to be clear Double. This map is the COOP Alt map for Kashan Desert its similar to the large, and standard versions of Kashan. but I'll still be able to get my point across.
When the game starts North Village, North Bunker and South Bunker are neutral so they are all cappable, therefore we are allowed to capture them, and we are also allowed to shoot at any vehicle that is advancing on those positions. Especially if we have assets at those locations. Regardless of whether we do, those flags are not owned by the bots (yet) so anything coming towards those positions and firing on our team is fair game. That includes South Bunker where we could have a tank or logi truck camped. We're allowed to protect those flags, this is not base rape. Base rape is going past that green line and shooting at tanks, jets, helis BEFORE South Bunker is captured. As far as I'm concerned any tank or vehicle that has arrived at South Bunker is fair game and we are not blocking or destroying enemy re-inforcement routes, (no razor wire, no mines, etc). Once North Village is taken how does a tank sitting on the hills over-looking North and South Bunkers and shooting at armour coming from North Outpost or the Main base constitute base rape? According to the rules we could even have a squad or CAS taking out the armour spawning at Outpost, its within the rules if its strategic.
Yes we know that if the tank kills all the armour coming towards South Bunker it may ruin the fun of the infantry squad sitting there but its not against the rules. And why should camping be illegal, that's not against the rules either. Snipers do it, that's their job. I'm all for infantry squads having fun too but shouldn't you run the infantry version of Kashan Desert if that's the case, why turn a heavy asset based map into an infantry one? That's why Kashan Desert and Khamisiyah are designed the way they are, they're heavy assets maps. Boom, bang, CAS overhead, and the smell of cordite and all that jazz....Jeees leave our heavy assets maps as they are, PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZE.
