    Asset destruction question

    Is a soldier allowed to steal a vehicle in the opposing UCB for the sole purpose of escaping after they destroyed the enemies assets?

    Re: Asset destruction question

    Rules say:

    Players acting within their commander's authorization MAY attack structures (UAV Trailer, Radar Dish & Artillery) within the enemy UCB, vehicles within the UCB are OFF LIMITS.
    Link to rules:

    So would say no. Or are you thinking about something more specific Hitest?

    Not speaking for Test, but there was at least a couple of cases recently of people departing in choppers and buggies after destroying assets.

    *If* I'm reading the rules correctly, it would appear that if you have the intent of entering the UCB to destroy assets you can leave in a vehicle.

    That rule is valid on the BF2142 server so you would think it's valid here too. But i can't find it in the vanilla/Poe rules. Does it explicitly say so? Where? Am i getting old?

    Pretty sure you can steal a fast mover like a jeep or buggy. apcs, tanks and helos were off limits.

    As your commander can give you a vehicle drop to escape in vanilla, I would have thought no, but I am new to this so........

    Re: Asset destruction question

    Yesterday on Wake Island, we were Chinese and were sneaking across to the island to blow up the American arty. We planned on hijacking a boat to make good our escape after the dirty deed was done (although we were killed before we could grab one).
    Was/is that against the rules?

    Players acting within their commander's authorization MAY attack structures (UAV Trailer, Radar Dish & Artillery) within the enemy UCB, vehicles within the UCB are OFF LIMITS.
    To me, that tells me that I can go into the enemy base to blow up their structures (UAV, arty etc.) but that I cannot be in your base just to a)kill your doodz or b) blow up your vehicles to put you at a disadvantage. Maybe some clarification would be helpful.
    Also, were these rules written for vBF2, PoE2 or PR? Because in PR if someone steals your Humvee that's much more of a loss to your team that if they stole one in Vanilla.

    I would think the fast movers (boat/buggy/humvee) are ok, but not the APC/helo.

    Not really. It just seems odd that i can enter an UCB, solely for the purpose of destroying assets, but then i have to leave on foot. Highway Tampa is a friggin big map and the UCB for the USMC is wide open flat terrrain. It seems like this rule has a gray area, well at least to me it does.

    I think what that rule is trying to convey is to only destroy assets other than vehicles. I think that a theft of a fast mover is reasonable in order to escape. Just abandon that vehicle upon return to a safe zone so it can respawn at their base.

    Re: Asset destruction question

    You guys' memory is getting flakey The rule for BF2 is (and has always been) simple with no shades of gray:

    Do not steal ANY enemy vehicles from the UCB.

    I think that should be adjusted, considering that's from the olden days, and we do allow this on 2142, I say the rule should be revised just for a fast mover to be used.

    Yea, should probably at least think about it. The rule in 2142 has worked well.

    Re: Asset destruction question

    You can use a fast mover to get in the UCB, destroy assets and use the FAV you brought in to escape.

    Regardless - I also recall that it was allowed to take a FAV to escape from an asset destruction mission in BF2 back in the days.
