AC-130H Spectre gunship

[Ghilleman]

Does anyone think that this vehicle should be either a drivable vehicle, or possibly replace commanders artillery? It would be able to support ground infantry, and still deal destruction over a wide radius, but wouldn't completley obliterate evrything. Here are its weapons:

two M61 20mm Vulcan cannons
with 3,000 rounds

one L60 40mm Bofors cannon
with 256 rounds

one M102 105mm howitzer
with 100 rounds

One 25mm GAU-12 Gatling gun
(1,800 rounds per minute)

one L60 40mm Bofors cannon
(100 shots per minute)

one M102 105mm cannon
(6-10 rounds per minute)

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

I think its utter nonsense to ask for this in BF2 small maps.

Wed be better off with the Battlestar Galactica, which has so many cannons, that you cant count them.

Just wait for USI

It would have plenty of seats to get kill assist points!

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

BF2 has enough problems. No sense in replacing the arty now.

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

Most of these cannons are basically gattling guns. the only explosives are the two howitzers. the bofors are AA, and the vulcan is a gattling gun. And it doesnt have to be entwined within the main game, could be a mod.

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

This has been brought up so many times...

No, I don't think it's suitable for BF2 use. Maybe as a commander controlled artillery replacement, but even that would be kinda weak.

But, since these things are kinda interesting, check out this vid: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...unship&pl=true
It's longish, but really does show how nasty a Spector can be.

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

you could just play DC

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

It was a good addition in DC but they had such bigger maps, might be a good idea for 64 player maps

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

My only question is how would you destroy it? If it can replace arty in every level, what happens in the levels that have no AA? At least you can take out the enemy arty on every level.

Re: AC-130H Spectre gunship

lol at adding a AC-130 gunship to bf2,
oh well I guess with the BH guns nerfed the yanks need something else to controll the battlefield from the air on maps like Mashtur.
can you say OWNAGE!!!

And how effective would the slow ac-130 be against the fighter jets?
