First let me say that I am a Roleplayer. I play this game to play in a star warsy universe (even if not too much following continuity) I've been wanting a squad leader for a long time, and only recently started a new character on a new server to achieve this goal. I'm also working on master rifleman with this character. Skills and bonuses, of course, help make a profession what it is, but also the professions concept. I've never worried about what bonuses I can stack or how good I am, as long as I achieve a character concept. I've been laughed at numerous times because"I will never be useful in PvP" or "I will get pwned" with that combination. I don't care. Its fun. Anyway, this is really the first time I've looked through your forum and I found the FAQ extremely informative for me. Having SL is worth it to me to have the character I designed, even if the specials aren't so useful to others.
Now, with all that said, (I think I said it just so you know a little more about my personal motives) I have a question. I've looked through the boards and may have missed the subject, and forgive me if this is not the right place to ask it. But has anyone considered/posted/thought about a Squad(ron) Leader with the upcoming JTL? I know its supposed to be twitched based, but imagine getting a little more out of your starfighter if you are grouped with a SL in space? From what I see of the profession, some of the skills could transfer. Like the sys message and maybe some other stuff. What do you think? Am I just thinking wishfully?

Currently there are no direct ties that have been announced between ground professions and the space ones, that may change with time though. (per Irott in another post)

I think if they gave some sort of special abilties for squad leader with jtl i will be very very happy with SOE. Maybe something like a modified /retreat where your shields increase, or maybe /openfire where you get increased damage on weapons or anything like that. Something to make squad leader that little more worth while.

Problem with giving some professions abilities in space (although that would be cool) is that if they give us abilities, they'll have to give other profs abilities. Not to mention if they make part of the profession for space, that will take away from the amount they can give the profession on the ground without making it too powerful. This wouldn't be very fair to those who won't be flying a spaceship...
