Slak Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Name: Slak / Doom RP Rank: BCMD Suggestion: Adding the Heavy Shield to all the HS jobs. Now before you vote there is 3 shields on the server and only one of those 3 shields are being used at the moment. Now utilizing the Heavy shield in my opinion would make more sense for HS since they're heavily focused on Breach and Clearing and EOD. The Heavy Shield is used for being in the front and cannot be placed. Instead of it being placed it can breach open Dark RP map doors(Used of Event Server Maybe). Implementation: Adding Heavy Shield to all the HS Jobs ( Brimstone, Gambit, Lancer, Pipes, Crush, Bandit, Acid, and Locke). Lore: Shield (physical armor) | Wookieepedia | Fandom Workshop content if applicable: Already on the server. Listed under Weapons and called "heavy_shield" (If no workshop content, suggest a developer or put "Require Development") If you are asking to add or change a job, fill out the following Add or Change: Change (Any job modification requires all this information) Job: Havoc Squad Brimstone Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same (Provide the model string if on server Ex. models/player/synergy/cblake/ls_squad/ls_trp/lstrp.mdl (Get this from the Q menu) Weapons: heavy_shield (add) (If you want a modfication to a weapon/saber you must put the weapon string in the suggestion. Ex. tfa_e5 (Get this from the Q menu) Job: Havoc Squad Gambit Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same Weapons: heavy_shield (add) Job: Havoc Squad Lancer Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same Weapons: heavy_shield (add) Job: Havoc Squad Pipes Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same Weapons: heavy_shield (add) Job: Havoc Squad Crush Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same Weapons: heavy_shield (add) Job: Havoc Squad Acid Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same Weapons: heavy_shield (add) Job: Havoc Squad Bandit Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same Weapons: heavy_shield (add) Job: Havoc Squad Locke Slots: Keep the Same Description: Keep the Same Model: Keep the Same Weapons: heavy_shield (add) Other: Change the "Police" on the Shield to a Republic Symbol. If you are confused look at the picture above(which is the heavy shield) and the picture below(which is the deployable shield). All you are doing is changing the emblem on the shield. 2 Report Notably Known as: Regimental Commander, Battalion Commander Doom, Last Foxtrot Lead Gregor, Boss, Sev, Battalion Commander Wolffe, Boost, Comet, Commander Faie, Charger Currently: Crosshair & Shaak Ti Link to comment

It seems to be more of a down grade to join Havoc Squad instead of being in DU since you don't have the shield that you wanted upon joining Doom's Unit, it just seems that people are becoming someone with a name and different model. So with all of that being said adding something to the jobs would make HS a bit more useful.

I understand your reasoning, the main purpose is that the heavy shields do not get used and they can't be set down, which means they shouldn't be used on frontlines, but since the sub unit is breach and clear centered, it makes sense to give something that helps in breaching and clearing. the shield has curved edges on it unlike its deployable counterpart, making it better for covering and doing close quarters combat. Personally since we don't have z6s for all DU classes anymore, I believe the agreements have changed. As well if this is an issue of agreements with the server, I believe that we have been talking with high command regarding it this suggestion for the past weeks. I may be biased, but I am +1ing this as I have not seen much uniqueness for HS and this would help them with breach and clear tactics.

But then that always leaves out the ones who doesn't have the shield, to cause jobs to go left out and people not going for them. The thing we are trying to get at is a have full and better running Havoc Squad, we can't do that with having a very basic loadout of course and that is what we are hitting at. I appreciate your comments and concerns.

Not only that but using what was given to us on the server. Some people don't understand that Havoc Squad is fan made and don't see that as unique, as the server grows some people will not care about that fact. Now I understand we basically stated that we would not have shields in HS, but things change and it's been a year or so and people won't join the Squad nor will people stay and will just go back to regular DU. Having the new shields will make it seem like we have a promising Sub-unit within the battalion that makes people want to constantly try for a position.

Harsh Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 +1. Could someone please clarify the original deal that was made to allow HS's addition to the server? From what I understand, compromises were made because every DU trooper had the Z6 and the shield. Currently, the normal DU trooper receives a shield to set it apart from other battalion troops. No Z-6. Additionally, DU has no JT sub-branch, only a Havoc Squad member that has a jetpack (lancer). Every other battalion on the server has JTs. If I understand the original intent behind the compromise, it was to ensure DU did not get too much to set it apart. However, with the removal of the Z-6 from the regular trooper whitelists, I see us as having come out of this "deal" much worse off than when we came in. If things can change and our loadouts can be stripped of an essential function, can they not change similarly to give us something in return?

Brooklyn Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Between the changes in loadouts, the addition of completely new and custom models, and even the initial introduction of the Squad. I don't think y'all need anything more to make you unique. Your bunch is basically a Green Wolfpack at this point except not everyone has jetpacks. -1 Kal Skirata Bacta Marvel Brooklyn I beat Jad in a spar first try. Link to comment
Egg Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Maybe change the suggestion to take the shields away from normal DU to open them up for your fanon squad and then I'll start to thinking about changing my vote to a +1. As this suggestion and the battalion sits, the squad shouldn't exist and this suggestion gets a -1 from me, primarily for balance reasons and it goes against the agreement to get them added in the first place.

Dennis Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 -1 I can’t believe I’m saying this I agree with comics as the original creator of havoc squad the point was to use their mobility so having shield would slow them down. The squad should be a run and gun style a major change from the slow slug it out style of normal du. yes it’s fannon and made up but it’s completely going against the point of adding the squad in the first place. 3 2 Report Current: Kevin Colt leader of the Colt Crime Syndicate | Alpha-69 Dennis Former: BCMD Doom x3| Havoc Squad Brimstone x3 | Base Ops CMD | Delta Jedi | BCMD Colt | BCMD Bacara | Specialized Regimental Commander x2 | First Count Dooku and creator of the CIS | Rear Admiral Orson Krennic Link to comment
Flytape Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 +1 as the current Brimstone I will have to say this is a great addition to our loadout. The Heavy Shield isn't place able and will be purely used for us still breaching clear quicker then our counterparts in DU. We don't got an amazing loadouts like most other Sub-Units do. We mostly just have DC-15a and s as well as some other decent addons, but still we could use this shield to help us better our mobility at doing CQC faster and safer. If you aren't apart of HS then you really and truly won't see it from out standpoint. We need shields to help us be better at clearing and being safer in events and deployments! Link to comment
