Proposal:Galaxy Upgrades

[Doppler]

I think my biggest pet pieve about the galaxy is that it's a throw away vehicle. It's so much trouble to get it landed. and then it's chances once on the ground of surviving are tather minimal. THe only gun that seems to be worth a damn is the tail gun because reaver and mosq pilots all seem to have an anal fetish. Here's how the standard gal scenario goes.

Load up in gal at sanc. putter in gal to target, if fight is at target drop team on room, team penetrates or dies horribly in a blazew of glory, Enemy air usualy comes to kill the gal supported by ground fire soon after unless you manage to escape. Now here's the problem, you've got a shot up gal that's going to be vulnerable for a long time and will probly die before you can use it again, not cool. So here's what I propose, you know all those airtowers that are all over the place, how about we put a pad on there, you land the gal on it, hit the button the gal dematerializes and is stored at the tower. It remains until you log off, leave the continent, or the tower changes hands. This same thing whould work for any air vehicle.

Ok these next two are a little less drastic.

Jumpmaster/crewchief position

Nothing fancy here just give one of the passenger slots a downward facing scope with zoom so you can do HALo drops without going right on the level of the tower walls on bases. Yes this will amke galls harder to shoot down after dropping their little blue turds of mayhem but lets face it by that point it's academic anyway isnt it?

Final suggestion and one of the most usefull i think. In Neocron they have these tubes basicly reverse gravity fields. THeir used like elevators, lets put some of these on the gal basicly the gravity dampers on steroids. What does this allow people to do, basicly you fly the gal low, hover level and now troops on the ground can board your gal. Obviously vehicles whould still require the gal to land. I mean come ojn people we're in the far future we have a helicoptor pilots wet dream of a vehicle but no ropeladder or lift winch? COme on.

Sorry fi this post was a little less lucid then most, it's late.
