A module to fit to LAVs to give them cover from fire when they pointing the gun right at you, just a metal shield on front to protect the gun |

I like the idea for a module, as long as it's not standard without using a slot. |

If CCP got excited about it them maybe the could just add "Equipment" slots to Vehicles and have the Physical Shield available along with other toys such as Laser Sights (which would also add a reduction to recoil and bullet and missle sway/spray) and maybe even some kind of Active Stealth/ECM device that would mess with the Radar when activated.
Maybe i'm just a little ahead of myself though? :D

Actually it's already really tough to hit an LAV-Gunner from the direction he's facing. I've tried it before and the gun in front of him protects a larger area than visible. |

not a "shield" as in deflector to max, as shield as in a sheet of steel to absorb fire atleast in the direction he is facing.

Only the free LAV should have exposed driver/passenger/turret. Right now we are paying 300k+ for an uparmored technical. Lame. |

Shields should naturally give a gunner additional defense while in the turret. |

I just think the OP is a little annoyed that the people he's shooting at can actually kill him in return, or that snipers have the gall to actually shoot at them. |

a LAV sat still the gunner easy prey
now if the driver has some skill and brains he wont sit still as this is just death to the gunner getting killed
on top of that it leaves himself and the LAV a free lunch to any SL / forge wielding grunt
ive kept a gunner and free LAV alive for the best part of a skirmish battle about 3/4 the length of the match my gunner when 25-2 i miss judged a turn and launch the LAV into bad terrain and got stuck died to forge gun 
dont sit still move around use the terrain for cover slow down to give the gunner time to aim and track peeps and i stress do not stop moving
driving too fast renders anything other than the missile launcher near useless
granted this is not perfect but it does help alot
even with the vehicle shields the gunner can get sniped im not even sure he is protected by the vehicle shields if he was then he wouldnt be an easy meal as u would have to drop vehicle shields b4 u could kill him |

The gunner has no protection at all currently I just think we could get a module that gives them some protection from infantry |

I hate this idea, its already lame enough having 2 or 3 guys screaming around the map in LAVs running ppl over then switching to the turret for a few easy kills from 100m away, the only thing that keeps me from raging is i can shoot them in the face when they jump onto that turret. |

You'd love Clouds Saga then
I like this idea, it sacrifices something for protection so balance has been thought of too. Nice job OP. |

A LAV is not a tank. Its part of the fun to be able to pick of the gunner / driver directly. |

Just flank the gunner my suggestion would only give 100 degrees of protection in one direction(the way he is facing) the other 260 he still be unprotected.
Also if your having problems with LAVs why not use a AV nade? |

I noticed there are a ton of types of turret upgrades listed on the market that haven't been released yet- hopefully this is one of them. |
