How do you view the tool of Battlefield Execution to be used? What circumstances do you think it would be necessary to BE a member of the crew? Where do you think the Battlefield Execution Mechanic Differs from regular Execution and why? I view Battlefield Execution As a way to remove someone who has no regard for RP, or disobeying orders to the extent that they are either slow progress on the operation, or putting the whole operation at risk of immanent Failure with the lack of Military police. i see it necessary to take place of a crew member if they are dead ground side or nonexistent. The difference between both the execution mechanic and regular is the Battle execution is non formal and used if only if there is threat to the operation or other lives , while the other is formal for people who are not at risk of ending lives are the operation
How will your Commanding Officer run his/her ship? Provide a detailed explanation on how he would handle situations that might commonly occur such as, a insubordinate Req, Engineering, MP, or Command Staff As the highest ranking member of the ship I intent on ensuring the players around me are as involved as possible in operations especially in CIC. Issuing orders to my subordinates to keep them active while also interacting with the XO and corporate Liaison. I would like to see my second in command run my operations occasionally in order to give them the Experience opportunity to take over a operation *with their consent* or take suggestions on a regular basis. every operation i would make a check on every aspect of the ships personal to make sure all personal duties are fulfilled and insure the structure of the ships command is fully structured even if it lacks personal in some areas. In my experience as XO and the only commanding officer in some cases I would make arrangements for replacements, such as a SO dealing with Requisitions temporarily or assigning Engineers from delta to take on MT duties or assigning a SO to be in charge of Alamo or Normandy *pending on landing zone* with the lack of personal.
What do you think is the job of a Commander? To add a Ranking structure in which operations are formed and organized with a higher level of RP when it comes to command. Such as conducting a better understanding of battle planning and use of combat maneuvers to gain the upper hand in a operation *flanks search and destroy or having one squad find the hive while the rest gain foot holds in two areas of the map*.
As a player what do you think could be added for Commanding Officer to benefit the role? A timer or some such to allow the Marines side more time before the Xenos take over the Transport Dropship to allow more RP such as memorials and debriefs and add realism of storing their gear and getting their gear back for possible boarders with a central link that can be taken ground side to patch cameras to CIC from the surface or space station.
What do you think you could contribute by being whitelisted? i would contribute to help inspire the men and women to do heroic actions while performing their duties. I would also ensure the CIC staff will have a greater level of confidence when managing their Squads and positions with while also encouraging greater levels of cooperation between Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta squads.
