Default Carrier crush

Good cause, good driver , safety issues . What would of been the result if what happened to one of my men in a LAAV happened here ?

The driver went over a large stump for the fun of it : Result, the LAAV overturned on its side and my crew commander was pinned under the hull.He did'nt die fortunately but was very badly injured.

The danger of that exibition is the carrier overturning on on one of its sides.

The driver would of been projected from his seat and crushed by the hull.

I think the stunt should be better prepared with ramps leading to and leaving the cars to prevent flipping of the Carrier and barriers or heavy equipment on both sides in case the small cars give more on one side than the other.

Otherwise , a very good show.

I did the exact same thing with an APC on a Iltis involuntarily in Suffield while backing up. My driver tought he heard '' Back UP'' when i actualy said'' let's go back up the trail ''

The Iltis was flattened to the axles. Fortunately the Captain and his driver had dismounted seconds before from the Iltis .
