Lightbulb Repair MBT safely inside


Since the main battle tanks will now be able to have one pilot shooting the main gun, I figure it makes having a gunner optional at the expense of added ai/av/aa. I think if we had more incentive to have a gunner, it would ultimately be more rewarding having one.

For example if you were in a tank and had a gunner. The gunner could repair the tank from inside the gunner seat. (Unable to fire) This would help survivability and help diversify the playerbase assuming this was made a special cert.

Yay nay?

Nope, there's gotta be risk of bodily harm when you're gluing... there's already plenty of incentive to get a gunner to avoid getting farmed by aircraft.

I think this would be too OPed. It is then basically a tank with auto regenerating health.

They already have auto-repair cert.

I do not support your idea.

General agreement with other posters; there needs to be some risk associated with repairing the health of the vehicle, which forces the vehicle to retreat to a safe area to avoid sniper fire. Gives snipers targets as well

That's funny, I was just going to say "No." but it said that was too short, so I had to add this other stuff. Now, as I was saying...

No.

Yes, but repairs should always start on the inside... with the radio. Can't fight without the encouragement provided by the TRBC (Terran Republic Broadcast Center). Armor repairs can wait!
