how about allowing those that want to devote their toon to piloting to be able to use skill points to pick up a 2nd piloting profession. not asking to allow for conflicts, for example no rebel/imp pilots or reb/rsf pilots.however smuggler alliance/reb pilots or something like thatwould be nice. this way you have access toa largervarietyof ships, more missile skill and pilot tactics though i supposefoiks with single pilot masteries would be jealous of you for that. however i thinkall of that is fair if it costed skill points to pick up a 2nd pilot profession.

There wouldn't be too much of a Point to that, realistically.


Aside from Pilot Commands, which you can only use one of every few minutes anyway, And as for ships, well, Most people just go with the ROTW ones.

if there wouldnt be a point to it then there isnt much point not allowing it? i think many folks may use rotw ships, but i for one do not use just one shipnor do i have just one in my datapad that is loaded and ready to go. then some folks like specific ships, likethekraytand the awing forexample.

Maybe with +200 pilot specials, Bomber Strike will actually work...

I actually have about a 75% success rate with bstrike...

...I'm beginning to wonder if it's success rate is tied into Prestige. When I was low (10-50 million, low for me now that I'm knocking on the 250 mill door), it never seemed to work.

Now that I'm near 250 mill, I find the only difference is the game seems to "sense" when I WANT it to work vs. when I DON'T want it to work.

Here's a hint, game. If I push the button, I WANT IT TO WORK!

What I love is that we can press a button and TIEs come out of nowhere, but WE don't get the ability to call for "aid" to tow us back to a friendly starbase for repairs. Rebels do.

The Imperial fleet has over 10,000 STAR DESTROYERS - JUST STAR DESTROYERS. Can you IMAGINE the amount of SUPPORT and OTHER vessels there are? Hundreds of thousands...perhaps MILLIONS?

There's an idea, too - free no-decay repairs for overt pilots at factional starbases in other sectors. Make it available in DS for "battlefield" events so you don't have to hyper out to fix damage - the DS repairs Rebels, the ISD repairs Imps.
