Arrow IV Vehicles

I am proposing a portal of all vehicles armed with the Arrow IV. Is there disagreement to this? ClanWolverine101 06:58, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

I would prefer one that includes both Arrow IV, Thumper, Sniper and Long Tom ones. Or at least if an Arrow IV category is made, then one for tube artillery is also made. --Neufeld 08:20, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Why is the "fire support combat vehicle" category insufficient? --Scaletail 00:47, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Because the Fire Support category doesn't even mean Artillery. It includes LRM Carriers and other vehicles with potent long-range "normal" weaponry.

Try this : Look at the 3050 era onward. Look at all the mechs with TAG. WHY do so many mechs need TAG? There was only one mech refitted with Arrow IV (Catapult) and damn few vehicles. I feel justified in suggesting it'd be good to nail this down.

And I don't mind including the other Artillery vehicles either. ClanWolverine101 05:54, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Well I decided to be bold, and added: Category:Artillery_Combat_Vehicles. --Neufeld 08:33, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Meh. I would have, but I feared it would have been deleted... ClanWolverine101 14:35, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

In the interest of playing devil's advocate, does that mean we should add categories for other types of weapons? Should we have "Missile Combat Vehicles" and "Laser Combat Vehicles"? I'm not saying you don't have good reasons for your suggestions, I'm saying I don't know them. --Scaletail 01:37, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
