Yeah it would be great to have that. They wouldnt even need to be anything spectacular on the graphics side either. At scale with ground features a couple of animated polygons would do.

Escort the Skytrain to the drop point, get enough paratroopers on the ground and they capture the enemy airstrip and they then have to fall back to a further airstrip. You have a choice of dropping your paratroopers at the enemy base, or at your own base to offset enemy drops trying to take over your airstrip.

Teams have to take off from their air strips, not in the air. Similar to Capture the Airstrip, but 5 air strips and you don't have to land to take them.Take off from any airstrip your team has taken over, have a minimum altitude to drop paratroopers from.

That would really open it out tactically. I could see some serious squadren team work with that scenario. I hope the devs take fan ideas onboard!!
