Starfighter Sentry Addition- Accepted

[Shock STFAL COL Sully]

What do you want to see?

A Sub-division addition to the Starfighter Corps, the Sentry. 

Why should we add it? 

The Starfighter Corps Sentry is a subdivision to the SF battalion, The job of the sentries are to both guard SHB during events (Both to decrease lag from more LFS ships in the sky, also to hold off enemies while other SF deploy), as well as guarding our Vice Marshall and Marshall. The members of this subdivision will be under strict watch by a lead, following a SOP, and a rigorous Tryout as to weed out any unprepared members of SF. The battalion will have certain tasks depending on what is going on and who is currently on. During events the subdivision will watch SHB, Moonpool, and Tie Hangar Bays to clear them of any enemies coming from other parts of the ship and from dropods, so SF dealing with air combat can launch with ease. During passive rp depending on who's online, The sentries will have at least one guard with the Vice Marshall and Marshall at all times. If no starfighter command is online or we have more sentries on then needed for the VM and M, then the sentries will protect SHB Doors, SHB Control room, and Command Office (These are areas of high minging when SF are doing things). The Sentries will be prepared for anything: Spamming SHB buttons, running in bunks, stolen TIEs, RDMing STs, and any other thing that can be thrown at them. 

What are the advantages of having this?

The first advantage of having this subdivision is that Starfighter Corp’s insane amount of activity recently proves that sometimes during events, we can’t have all 12+ of us flying at the same time. An easy fix is adding this class, a unit which doesn’t have to fly, but has the ability to if activity in SF is lack-luster. A second reason this is an advantage is because this gives some SF more passive-rp, being stationed at an sector or an VIP, as well as making SF a more serious battalion.

Who is it mainly for? 

Starfighter Corps, as well as helping out security for SHB, as there usually isn’t Shock stationed there, when the occasional minge goes into SHB Control Room the Sentries will have it handled. This also can help SF during any important time, when we are deploying they can make sure there isn’t any minge ready to steal our TIEs, as well as protect Training Officers when doing tryouts from any disturbance.

- Starfighters are currently really active, Averaging around 9-10 players at a time on occasion, with peaks of 17-18 players.

- Starfighters currently have no way of really protecting SHB (Ground Armor can only be used for Off-Maps)

- Too many Starfighters in LFS ships can cause frames to drop to around 5-15 FPS, Having a grounded division can help greatly reduce lag, as well as killing NPCs in SHB where they are usually grouped up for a long time before anyone shows up.

However did you get permission from Army Command to make this?

Why not just let SF use ground Armor when on the ISD and give it the new weapon

Now that we are a Naval Branch, Grand Moff Classy has also given us permission for this sub class.

The job is Better than IF Agent job (More Armor and more HP along with a Sniper rifle)
Has the Same sniper as Shock Special Task Force
When SHB is completely under siege, IF and other ground troops usually take care of it
(If they didn't have the same Sniper as a SPECIAL FORCES unit maybe I'll change it to a -/+)

-Inferno don't always defend SHB, They're special forces & they don't only want this job because of NPC's in SHB, In the post they said they wanted it for multiple reasons
-There is a specific reason they want this job added, They don't want to reply on another battalion for common needs, You've misread the reason why which below.

I wouldn't advise commenting on other peoples battalion update saying stuff like this, Let their respective command speak with them 1 on 1, and work something out if you don't like the idea.

+/- Support

N.1 It is a great sub branch and they do have a purpose and are helpful in SHB as most ground forces cant get there before almost all SF are dead

N.2 I could see it being useful kinda like RT in ST's and all its other benefits

N.3 I Dont think it really needs its own job, they could just have perms to be on "Starfighter Ground Armor"

N.4 If they are a ground type sub division it shouldn't have a "TIE Interceptor" and just have the basic "TIE Fighter"

I hope you can look at this the same way I do, and most importantly this is my opinion

If you don't agree or see anything to critique let me know!

I understand where you're coming from and after reading this I have changed my mind a bit, I still believe it doesn't need a Sniper Rifle, but other than that, the idea is good.
