Subject: New vehicle: FLAMER HOG and FLAMER GOOSE

Every map, every game type, every spawn point, has a unique solution to deliver victory. Sometimes it is obvious; sometimes it is hidden.

The FLAMER HOG is basically a gauss hog but instead of gauss bullets it shoots out, at the same rate and with the same trajectory, flame grenades. Perfect anti-infantry weapon.

the FLAMER GOOSE is a two man vehicle with a driver and on the back is a gunner position (mounted separately) with a long-range flame thrower. Imagine on valhalla, playing one bomb. There are three or four fools in the base guarding the bomb arm spot as defenders. You have a flame goose driving through Territory 3 cave followed by the bomb mongoose. The flame goose goes crashing into the base through the side, flamer going full on. You flame like three people who incinerate immediately, the fourth guy runs around before burning. The bomb guy comes in, everything is aflame, people shouting, screaming, plants the bomb, throws plasmas, weapons everywhere, the flamer goose self-incinerated, etc.

That would be an awesome thing as well. If the FLAMER HOG or FLAMER GOOSE overheated, as a weapon, instead of just stopping working, the vehicle would literally CATCH FIRE, BURNING THE DRIVER AND GUNNER and killing them in three seconds unless they immediately got off, PLUS THE VEHICLE WOULD BE DESTROYED.

How is that for a badass vehicle??

I wish I was still legendary.

You'd shoot yourself with the flames if your hog was moving forwards, and they couldn't feasibly shoot very far anyway.

It's pointless, just a faster flamethrower that doubles as a driving triple kill.

"Belive me, or what'cha see is what'cha get."

agreed, i thought you ment a flamethrower hog, THAT'D be better, you wouldn't kill yourself forward. also it works out as anti infantry, and its armour is weaker than regular hog, just to make it fair.

"I swear, I didn't shoot you! That bullet was in your head before I pulled the trigger..."
"Ordinarily I would tell you to stand back if you don't want to be injured. But in this case, I'll make an exception. I'm going to beat down every last one of you!" -Kenshin Himura

You like flamers, huh?

But in all seriousness, these are completely unnecessary. The regular 'hog is the anti-infantry vehicle and the mongoose isn't supposed to have a mounted weapon... that's why it's so fast.
