2. Does it take 2 to use an infantry rep tool? Do i need a second player to hold the rep tool while i aim onto a target?

3. It will take 2 now - 1 to use the vehicle and 1 to use the rep gun - Yet it will still take 1 AV player to outright kill the vehicle and both players - Not that 1:1 ratio you AV players are banging on about

I don't agree with the idea of remot rep turrets either Lazer...and it doesn't take 2 infantry to use a rep tool, but the infantryman using a rep tool can't use their weapon at the same...now this is only an issue on Assault Vehicles (ADS and all HAVs), but is still an issue that needs addressed, but only for those platforms. The pilot or driver in a logistics vehicle should have control over their own reps (or a primary rep), just as an assault vehicle pilot or drive has control over their own primary weapon

A LLV had a 50% damage reduction, and you could shoot a gunner out, as well as the fact that a pilot didn't have control of the small turret.

That thing you pointed out isn't really a issue. The only place it would fit in is say a Spider tanking HAV, which is a entirely different thing, as the fit is made to do that.

Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper. I believe all these roles are support for front line soldiers.

That thing you pointed out isn't really a issue. The only place it would fit in is say a Spider tanking HAV, which is a entirely different thing, as the fit is made to do that. My point is that a Logi vehicle pilot should have control over at least one of their own reps, if that means giving them an aspected turret that they control, so be it...but it would look a bit awkward to put a second turret on an LAV (but would also allow for an Assault LAV...)
