ok i havnt played 0.6 beta yet, bt cap my downloads =( so im waiting for full.

bear with me, its kind of a scattered argument, i cant think of how to streamline it

any way i was wondering, reading about it- whether say every 10 knifed civs gave the comander the ability to uav an area once.

this would simulate getting information about the locations and 'hangouts / turfs' of the insurgent squads. not just weapons casche.

i mean a civ in say iraq will know where all the insurgents operate they are just too scared/sympethetic to reveal the info to troops of their own free will, however im sure when interogated or something they would.

thus i think that for every 10 civs, comanders should get 1 uav to reveal the data they would normally 'recieve' obviously uav is a 1 off and lasts say 30 seconds. then they would have to knife another 10 civs.

I say no.
Brits get enough information already.
Plus the current UAV is still unrealistic.

The Brits already get information for knifed civs, just not with a UAV.

Yeah what they said, plus he would probably not know the pinpoint positions of the insurgent gunmen.

Exactly, therefore No.

What is it with people and magic UAVs!?

An UAV would give you real time information of a specific area (the crappy one in game does anyway). Not a captured civilian.

Sorry, I think rules like this are what is making PR unenjoyable to play. I don't like complicated procedures to get results such as this. Its too ridiculous. I just want realistic game play.

*Not an attack on you, its just that, from me, its a "No" to your idea

I think the civilian class are fair as is.
