[Mod] BoxLoader

2. The mod allows loading appropriate cargo and logistics objects onto vehicles to transport more conveniently and awesomely. It comes with a container / pallet functionality, which allows stacking of smaller items such as ammo and launcher crates onto a pallet, which is loaded as a whole onto the bed of a lorry or a roof rack. Much of it is available for paradrops.

There is also a fortifications module that I have not tested, but promises to meaningfully adapt fortifications like sandbags and H-barriers to cargo and a built-in construction system.

4. Liberation is already playing towards logistics, but it can be a little unsatisfying with only ACE cargo available. Loading up supplies adds a gameplay dimension we don't often explore past bringing a medical crate, which is mostly forgotten about, hidden in a Humvee way back.

The fortifications can feasibly replace or supplement GRAD trenches (depending on their bug status), without being magic. 

 

Outside of Liberation, getting used to it for gamenights enables us to bring logistics into the scope of a mission. Establish a forward observation post. Supply it. Defend it.

Benefits of using this for AWE was deemed not t be enough to warrant the changes necessary to incorporate. Would be good for specific game nights though
