Quad Skins

I really like the quad. Not exactly for the way it looks but for what it is, a small single player transportation device. What I am proposing is that you could buy skins to alter the look of your quad. What I would like is a

But the options could be endless and I think this could be a moneymaker for soe.

Im sure SOE is way ahead of us on ideas for skins to sell.

Im not sure what you are proposing with the picture.
EDIT: OK that new picture makes sense.

I doubt that you will be able to reskin your quad in that way which in facts means a completely different 3D model of the vehicle.

This bike looks bad assed.

Just imagine rolling up in style as an infiltrator on this beast.

I think sledge is on to something if for no other reason than the many examples of WH40K models offered up as "I would love 'X' to look like 'Y'" posts.
And honestly why not, if a Quad ATV in your fictional wargame could move a heavily armored fictional space trooper around why not a glorified motorcycle?

Shit my heavy assault would look better than bat man on this combat scooter

I just love bad assed chicks on giant motorcycles

LoL sells "skins" which are sometimes completely different models and even different animations. However, any model options for an asset (such as a vehicle) should be similar enough so that their game mechanics are identical....otherwise its a new vehicle or variant requiring its own balancing.
