Only if they failed to field enough AA, any base defended by 80 players should have no issues with aircraft really.

That also raises the question of gameplay design:

Fortresses best attacked by air / land / sea / infantry / etc. because the defenses are built around a focus on certain things. For instance, you could have a fortress with extra AA turrets or walls that allow for ground vehicle combat.

Or like those mines, that disallow aircraft.

A little off subject, but watching the videos and looking at the cliffs made me think how nice it would be to have a few cliff side caves to snipe from.

Good stuff!

Seems almost everyone who wanted to have their say wants to see a mix of base designs, at least in terms of having walls and not having walls.

In fact, I'm hoping the Devs have already implemented walls as shown in the OP on at least some bases. Would make for some immense battles, I'm sure.

Can't wait to hear if Hamma and Jennyboo get some insights and/or eyeball time with some different bases while they are with SOE.

Looks like this thread's question may have been answered in regards to walls, take a look at this.

Wow! Thanks Noob, this restores my faith in the devs (for now). They do get it!

So, we will have some base where it's trampoline-fests for the folks who want to wear clown shoes and fuzzy wigs. Plus we get some serious old-school attritional warfare.

Now let's see if we can get turrets that work.
