Future Pilot and Ship Suggestion

So I was thinking it will be difficult, logistically, to get all of the iconic ships in the game since many of them don't have named pilots. Tie Bombers, Tie Interceptor, A-Wings, B-Wings, and Y-wings for example.

So why not let us use a generic pilot to fly multiple ships. I.E. a tie pilot could fly all generic tie fighters. This way the devs could add ships without having to add a bunch of nameless/generic pilot. This would also work with the other side by adding a Rebel pilot.

Thoughts?
  • As the Seal Team 6 of Stormtroopers, I think it's reasonable for Deathtroopers to be trained in flying. They could take Tie Interceptors, while somebody like Veers could fly a custom Tie Bomber. For the A-Wing and Y-Wing, I think HRSc and HRso could become pilots. A lack of manpower meant that Rebels probably had to use the same men as both pilots and foot soldiers depending on the situation.
  • Well. If they did this they could add all the cannon tie variations, the a-wing y-wing b-wing. I think the should also add naboo star fighter and a naboo pilot, then release a vulture droid ship. Which I feel would be pretty cool.
  • I'd love for the naboo pilot and fighter to be added, but my suggestion for 1 pilot in multiple vehicles was to keep the devs from creating a bunch more generic pilots with insane skills.

    The only problem I see with the vulture droid ships is that they don't have pilots

    What if the vulture droid crew power was based on your capital ship captain? I.e. It would change based whichever ship you use.
  • Ummm, slightly off topic but if you're going to move this discussion to the "ships" page shouldn't we be able to access the "ships" page? There is currently no option to get to this section.
