...a pilot on the ground, to defend the map room. I know I'm gonna get flamed for this, but we can already sort of do this now, by spawning a Storch, getting a couple hundred feet in the air and bailing. My thought is, so long as the barracks is still up, you can spawn a pilot on the ground, with his 1911 and 9 rounds, and run to the map room to fight incoming troops. Very little coding involved, I should think. Of course, eventually, it would be really cool if you could chose a load out (sniper rifle, bazooka, tommy gun, etc.), along with your Colt. On the other hand, you'd then probably want the enemy troops to be able to fire back. But, for the time being, it provides a little mini FPS action, when there's no remaining way to defend your base. Of course, it makes for one more thing an attacker needs to destroy to insure the base is ready to take. On the other hand, your GVs that have troops also have an MG or better, to mow down those pesky defending troops. Lots of new ground clutter to hide in, now.
