Air Deliverer

[Dharkbayne]

Ok, the galaxy is basically the Sunderer of the air, what about a smaller ship, more suited to spec-ops, and smaller squads, maybe it could carry 6, no vehicle, no MAX, and have 2 guns, one on each side, kinda like a blackhawk, maybe instead of afterburners, it could have a cloaking device, but while in use, you can't shoot, and maybe, 1/2 the speed, it would have medium armor, and go a little faster than a galaxy, but have a much smaller size,


Comments? Questions? Flames? Random statements about kittens?

[DeadTeddy]

it's not a bad idea but as things stand now the galaxy isn't being used much either except for hot drops. maybe if dominion will not allow harting in of enemies then the gal will come back. the thing is about new veichles that although they would be "nice" every new thing they add lowers FPS and takes more RAM so you need to optimize animations (make them ugly) and stuff. defiantely not something they can do for every veichle that wouldn't add a new aspect. this wouldn't add much to the game when it comes to gameplay except for having 6 ppl fall out of the sky. ppl here always hot drop, never land and jump out. as for rescue, give me a break, in this game life is cheaper then a romanian wife.

Great Idea! I had the same thoughts just a blackhawk type vehicle awhile back.

Ideas:
-Litte less armor than the liberator
-35mm Ball Turret ontop
-When landed it serves as a repair-rearm terminal (for spec operations)
-6 Passengers
-No afterburner but 130 Kph max

Ill get more specific as i go along. Id honestly like to see more ground vehicles rather than air. Now onto the serious topic Kittens 0wn j00 sk4nky a$$e$

[Professor Frink]

I love the idea but it would effectively kill the Galaxy. Maybe instead of a plane, it could be a cloaked hovercraft type deal.

[slytiger]

Maybe they should rethink the galaxy to carry more peeps and be used for a major drop platform and use the new smaller one for light squads. Only problem is the vehicle spot, but thats what the lodestar is for.

I would go for more of a fighiting transport, smilar to the blackhawk. I think something holds 7 people, a driver and 3 gunners in ball turrets, 25mm gc's, one on each side and one in the rear, and 3 pasangers. that would be fun

KITTIES PWNthey are fluffy

The Liberator is a pretty good transport now. Originally, the gunners had to be in Agile but they changed that. An air deliverer would still be cool though.

Any new transports would kill the ones we have now, would be btter to improve on the current GAL or simply scrap it for this smaller fighting transport.

[TheN00b]

What Jackel said.

[Doop]

The physics of the Deliverer are fucked up as it is. It goes flying around the place all the time. =\ But yeah, that'd be cool.

[Kaymon]

It would make the already waning Galaxy completely obsolete. With the Lodestar carrying vehicles, a flying Deliverer would kill the fat gal-pal. A great idea, but I can't see the devs adding one thing that would make another useless.

At least, that's how I see it.

[Rayder]

The Sunderer is the Galaxy of the ground without vehicle transport. You got it mixed up.

[Rbstr]

might as well kill the gal its never used because it sucks, it was only used becasue the Hart had such a long timer and it realy doen't do a good job, its hard to land always get killed after the HD and teh gunship sub-role for it is non-existant, if it had its beta 75mm cannons back it would be used, it would be better to be replaced with the Air-Del because that is usefull, the gal is not.

[Rayder]

The cannons would be great for air support to the dropped troops, but sucky against air targets.
