Skirmish Maps - supplies

Well, some thing about skirmish maps is that if you aren't defending a flag...you don't get a resupply and therefore you can't get new kits if you need to for various reasons.

Therefore, would it be possible to return rally points as a pick up location for basic kits, like marksman, AR rifleman etc.

Whichever kits should be picked up from rally points as well as supply crates would have to be gameplay tested.

I'm not sure if I support rally points used in this way in the 64 sized maps since supplies are theoretically around every corner. But rally points in skirmish mode are more potent than in the 64 sized maps imo since the small map size makes them very easy to overun. adding kits to the rally point would only add to this gameplay dynamic.

The PR team are probably considering the suggestions regarding different spawn kits/request from rallies etc for the 64 sized maps, so please talk about that in the active thread and keep this thread clean for skirmish talk.

i think better to add supply to each flag(now on some flags there is it, on some not), kits at rally will lead to too much wasting of them :-(

that is also true, some flags don't have supplies. e.g. the river on archer iirc.

Hmm it would juice up skirmish a bit more I guess. Granted I havent played it to much but I can imagine that doing this would make skirmish a faster game mode.

I think im for but only when the larger maps are not affected.
