Just a thought it would be nice to see commando to have a tree which gives them basic self defences, obviously not as strong as tka though sometihng which we could use if needed.


Even in the star wars world I would imagine a commando would have learnt above average hand to hand combat, this would also allow us to continue our training from the unarmed skills we needed to grind to become commando.


Even though the commando is a support character in the group it would be nice to have a back up if we need it, and again i dont think we should be able to pwn tka master's or fencers and the like. Im just think about moves which enable us to down our opponent quickly, throws would be nice though im sure the animation would be difficult, just something for when we get closed in on by a melee fighter and options to get back into ranged.


This would be a seperate tree meaning we would need to lose one or move it into another tree, the heavy acid riffle sucks (big time) i still want to have it i dont like to see things go just move it with the flamer tree as they both have identical trees.


I like this idea, even if i dont really know how the hand to hand tree would work what do you guys think.

I just had a quick thought to put in, what do people think about a commandos knife which they get at novice commando though is classed as unarmed in the way a vibro knuckler is.( I know their is a difference between a knuckler and a knife just throwing things out)

I love the idea of Commandos having unarmed moves. Our unarmed prereq. would actually mean something for a change, right now it is just a waste of skill pts. The thing is considering our flamethower is our only main weapon and we have to use it within 16 meters, it would be nice if we had more melee defense or melee moves considering when we use the flamer we are already in melee range.

I don't think we deserve a kd move, but maybe like a posture changing leg hit of some sort.

I understand where you comming from Nezodon, but, you gotta keep in mind that alot of us dont see us as support. This has alot to do with the total amount of Skill Points the profession eats up. To alot of us itis all about Cost vs. Benefits. We should not be uber but we should not we the **edit** of the galaxy either.
