What position/role for you?
I'm not sure how secure we are here, so I didn't want to blather on too much about tactics in a game I haven't played yet. But I'm curious if we might begin to get a feel for how many we have of each role. My best position in T2 was capper, but I'm not too keen right now on the Inf suit and hacking.
I was always a fan of the tank in T2, but most people never want to use it. I think that's because it was fairly easy to kill and in most circumstances, there were better ways to achieve the same objective. But I think the V tank may be pretty nice. The driver fires the main gun so a gunner is a luxury. I like the idea of MAX, engineer/repair and snipers too. One thing I'm probably out on is piloting. It's fun, but I don't hang well with good pilots. So, here's my plan to fill out four slots: Tanker (prolly with heavy weaps and repair, med if I can fit it) MAX (character devoted to MAX armor, all 3 if possible) Engineer (turrets, repair, med, assualt if possible) Sniper (maybe with inf and hacking too) What are YOUR plans?? -shark |

probably the following characters:
1) agile exo-suit 2) pilot/driver 3) MAX 4) engineer or medic if i do any squad commanding, i'm not sure which one i'd like to focus it on though, cuz i can see the benefit of having any one of them doing the commanding. i guess it doesn't really matter. |

Main Role- Probably heavy tanker
Secondary Role- Pilot for Mosquito, Reaver Other Role- Standard Infantry, maybe MAX Other Role- Infiltration |

Avernger...I wonder what a group of say 3-4 tanks could do. That's 3-4 tank centric drivers, but the gunners could be stealthers, snipers or some form of infantry (AV, AI). I'd be really interested to see how a group of tanks could work together to cover each other and wipe out other tanks and max's, and of course infantry.

Yeah, It'd be great to get all the tribe's tank divisions together. From what I can tell though, really no one in TKB besides me wants to work with tanks. Honestly I'm just doing it because no one else really mentioned it. That, and I've always been pretty damn good at using the tank in T2

I'll be primarily a Pilot/Driver with some light armor/weapons certs. I prefer to be above the battle, or in the thick of battle with a vehicle, that be there without one.
Galaxies are going to be my big thing. Behind the scenes, letting the other guys fight it out. |

Sniper/ Recon..
But now that you mention it.. I wouldn't mind being a tank gunner/sniper.. It would be especially cool if a tank division was lined up bombing a base and I could get out with my rifle and pick off infantry.. |

Yeah, it'd be pretty cool. Once you move the tanks into position, you could just sit and spam from that position, unload a bunch of snipers, then those troops that try to rush your tank position would get a bullet in the head for their trouble

Primary - command of forces, strategic command of entire battle situations, both air and ground based.
Primary certs - I'm leaning towards infantry type certs, MAX armor, regen implants and shield and hearing type. I want be both offensive strike and turn defensive to hold an objective for the 15 minutes. I was thinking for secondary I'd have minimal certs to drive a vehicle or fly a small aircraft to support smaller 5man squads. Basically I wanna be tossed right into the shit. I have an itchy trigger finger that wants to lay waste to TR and NC. |
