Name: Mavelle
RP Rank: Warrant Officer in 212th
Suggestion: I suggest we add this LFS vehicle, the K79-S80 vehicle. It effects the netgraph minimally and is not too complex of the vehicle. However, its uses are wide, and could function as a very interesting vehicle for patrols, be it for recon battalions or others. The vehicle is aesthetically fitting with the rest of our vehicles, (I.E. The loader, skiff, BARC, etc.). Furthermore, it is an LFS vehicle, fitting in with our current vehicle system.
Implementation: The vehicle would be easy to implement; it would require no additional rules regarding its use, however there is another vehicle included in the workshop page, the AT-Hauler. It is important to mention I do not suggest we allow the AT-hauler, as its position in lore is much less believable. An easy way to circumvent this issue would be to either simply disallow the spawning of the Hauler (Like the AT-RT right now), or even not whitelisting it, keeping it from being spawned by anybody. I do not believe a certification should be needed for such a vehicle, for the same reason that Loaders don't require a certification. Its controls are not complex nor dangerous for new drivers. For the purpose of aENG vehicle repair, if there are components needed, it would function almost exactly like a Loader, but with the addition of standard ion-cannons and door mechanisms.
Lore: This vehicle functioned as a recon troop transport. It has an incredibly simple, pillbox design. It hovers off of the ground like most other vehicles in Star Wars, and legitimately exists in the Star Wars universe. Therefore, immersion would not be broken by this very simple, yet effective vehicle. If people have a problem with its gray color, they could very easily color or material the vehicle to suit their needs. In short, even if the era is about 2 years off, the design is incredibly simple and thus it is entirely feasible that the design was not unique to the early empire.

P.S. I highly recommend any Founders looking into this suggestion download this addon and try the vehicle in singleplayer to get a hold on what I mean by all of the statements above. I think this vehicle could provide a bit more immersion for patrols and events such as those, and promote roleplaying even after that.
