More ammo for the engineer cars

There is simply not enough ammo in these small cars to set up a proper minefield or anything like that. You put down a few mines and then "Boink!" there goes your ammo box.

It would be nice with either 1 supply crate (still not enough to build a bunker) or atleast 3-4 of the smaller boxes.

1 small box is simply not enough. On Fools Road, some of my favorite things to do is to get a small squad out to the Village area and set up a proper minefield. For that i have to bring a CO truck when i really should be able to do with the engineer truck. Feels unessessary to waste a truck that could be used to build something or to transport people to my small squads little thing...

Give us engineers more ammo please! :p

Yay or Nay? :)

I think the US one is called a Supply Humvee so it would make sense that they would have a supply crate. The only problem i see with this is unless they replace the MEC , UK and China engie car then it wouldn't be realistic. The current vehicles are too small to hold a supply crate, the Militia truck is fine though.

Yay. It's a two seater, so you can shove a lot of ammo into that roomy back seat!

I would like to see the supply jeep put to a even more meaningful task, but sure more ammo is a step in the right direction.

Naa, there would be room in the back.

Give it a whole bunch of the metal ammo boxes. That way, they will fill a niche of ammo supply as opposed to firebase crate delivery.

no ammo crates on these, as two could then replace a truck. but, say, 6 ammo boxes (that should permit two engys to place their whole complement of 2x8 mines)
