Iron, I'd love to see troop transport planes that act as a mobile spawn point.
A pilot can fly it around dropping troops off, but once troops exit the plane, they automatically parachute down, this whole jumping and pulling the parachute 5 feet from the ground is really silly. Give MEC the chance to shoot them out of the sky.

Yeah, would like it too.
This would only really be worth with bigger maps though.

No I meant as soon as the map starts.

Put two APCs for USMC and the map will be balanced, troops will be able to spawn on the APCs and everyone will be happy. And lower or get rid of the construction AA gun, the MEC already rule the streets, it's overdone when their AA gun can rule the air and the streets as well.

Now, how about an AC-130? I know it's not a troop transport
per se but if you had one, with a pilot and port-side gunner position, acting as a mobile spawn point, then that would *really* make muttrah more interesting.

those would take about 10 seconds to be blown to shit by any MEC with half a brain and a heavy at kit, considering each is pretty much a gaurenteed 8 kills
