Any ideas to Improve CAF Fleet officer?

Unread post by gaby »

Maybe they can get special skills when they go up a few levels?

Recognize ship quality,or recognize tactics and Strategy.

What do you think?

I think they'd go great with a dijonn mustard-based barbeque sauce. :fl:

Recognize ship quality? Is that really a skill? "Yep, that looks like a good ship" :lol:

A more limited version of the 'Recognize Vehicle Quality' skill, as there is a skill to recognize the quality of certain items: primarily weapons and vehicles.

It's 'canon', not 'cannon'. A cannon is a big gun like on pirate ships, canon is what you mean when referring to something as being contained within one of the books such as how many dice to roll for a stat.

I will answer this question with an enigma.
Why is blue? :demon:
Bind the body to the opened mind
Bind the body to the opened mind

I dream of towers in a world consumed
A void in the sentient sky
I dream of fissures across the moon
Leaves of the lotus rise

I guess this area is covered by the Intelligence skill, which the OCC gets with 20% bonus.

Thought something like "naval tactics", applied to "vac navies" instead of "wet navies" would be nice.

On a second thought, since a submersible wet navy ship is still a viable asset in the 3Galaxies...

And of course, they have fighter and PA combat basic, without read sensory equipment and weapons systems skills - IMO without which these skills are
only enable hand-to-hand combat with PA/Robots, and maybe kamikaze attacks with fighters.

Yes you are correct. I over looked that. They would also need those skills as well.

Maybe in MOS packages and positively with reducing secondary and other skills. After all, there
should be engineering, EW, gunnery, fighter-PA specialists and so on.

On other forums someone called Lisa Hayes from Robotech a "traffic controller". In Eve-online,
such character is called a "pro FC" (fleet commander), someone who can turn battles, even in
really disadvantageous situations.
