Introduce militia AV grenades. On starter fits if possible.
The issue is an LAV can be used with any fit, but a swarm or forge requires dedicating everything towards only one enemy. Until you hit grenade 1, there is not a lot you can do to be both combat effective and have defenses against free lavs.
The ease and lack of risk in roadkilling is the root issue, but this would be a nice simple bandaid that could literally be implemented overnight. |

They are a deterrent at least and give players some response besides playing matador.
Band-aid, not fix. |

It's not the free part of the lavs that is the problem. |

So I should give up all self defense against vehicles unless I have the SP to spare in grenades (this is mostly a concern for new players who get the wrong idea from the starter fit; I in fact do have AV grenades on all my characters) while the LAV driver gives up none of his basic combat utility?
The roadkill needs balanced, but some more no SP tools to at least have some ability to respond is very important in the immediate term IMO. |

The issue is not the free LAVs, they merely compound the problem. The lack of equivalent tools (things that don't gimp your fit but protect your personal space) is a severe imbalance that can be rectified promptly. |

You want to be able to have your cake and eat it to. Have someone in your squad that is AV, have AV yourself, or stick to cover. I just don't see some serious issue here other than some people get butt hurt over getting run over. I think it adds to the game, you gotta watch your back, it's your own fault if you get nailed
As Marie-Th+¬r+¿se professed, "Let them eat cake!". |

Not everyone is a veteran. Many don't even know how useful doing that would be for LAV defense. |
