| Summary | 0004999: Mobile Rally Posts need speed boost! | ||||
| Description | I really like using mobile rally posts in enemy systems; they greatly reduce the amount of micromanagement I need to do to get transports places, especially on deep strikes. But they're kinda slow and I find myself waiting on them to reposition more often than I'd like to. Perhaps a boost to their speed is in order? Alternatively, I'd like it if I could build rally posts in enemy systems, even if they're outside of supply. :p | ||||

I hate to be a chaotic evil necromancer and all, but I'd like to bring this issue up for consideration again since a new expansion is on the way! I'd *like* to be able to use Mobile Rally Posts more often, especially on the attack when performing strikes and raids in enemy territory, where I presume they are distinct in function from the immobile Redirection Posts. I used to use them to immediately move my transports to their target(s) on entry to the destination system, but the post's speed of 40 makes this maneuver time-prohibitive and IMHO it simply costs waaay too much time in advance, especially for deep strikes. I wind up just micromanaging my much-speedier transports rather than waiting on the Mobile Rally Posts to get in position. If I may, I'd like to suggest that Mobile Rally Posts be given a speed boost, or teleportation or that some alternative be implemented that would allow for rapid setup of waypoints in hostile (eg. out of supply) territory. |

May as well let it teleport, since it's basically a UI item rather than a real unit. |
