Switchblade

[Nitsch]

I love this thing... it's almost criminal that it only costs 2 certs.

Let me start off by saying that among my friends and squadmates, i am considered the worst gunner ever. Yet i own on this damn thing.

I have a suggestion to infantry... if you see one of them, RUN! If i am deadly in it i would hate to see someone with skill using it.

All last night as i was driving along and I had infantry taking pot shots at me; i would just hit j and whammo they dead meat. At one time i was surrounded by 4 TR mini gunners shooting at me at once... I bolted down and waxed them all quickly.

They seem to have better armor than advertised and that gun is just plain evil. This vehicle makes the threasher look like crap. It can hover forever over water and has twice the damage ablity and much more manuverable than the threasher yet for 1 less cert.

I love this thing.

Hmm. If its that awesome..

I never saw any lightnings... but when i saw any other vehicles i ran like hell. They seem to rock against infantry, but it's anti armor is weak.

But why the need to nerf it if its common pool? and what could they do, make it a crappier gun? Oh well iguess that one would work actually. Also, in the manual it says it can deploy anywhere, even water, yet when it is tried, we cant seem to do it over water. Anyone know whats up with that?

yeah those things wer fun in beta, but i liakc the money to buy CC right now, so i am suck with my measly weps i'll get it in a few weeks though

[Exano]

Ive actually seen Hamma in his lightning, hes pretty good with it. I'm gonna enjoy hunting him down with my reaver..... j/k

[Black]

He should change his sig to a lightning not a reaver thats all i see him in (whenever i can get on for 5 mins) he basically lives in that GD thing.

You forgot to add it only takes one person to gun and drive unlike the Thresher.

Which is all the funnier since they cost the same

I would actualy prefer to see the Switchblade moved to light tank and have its AV damage upped slightly. Seems to make more sence to me than puting it in ATV.

I would have thought they would move it into the assult buggy cert (thresher, Maurader, enforcer)... because it is definatly mobile assault.

You already get two fine vehicles for the atv cert for the cots of 2.

Switchblade is more of an assault vehicle than it is an ATV.
