Howdy. Just wondering if neone would be interested in being a gunner for BWC galaxy pilots. I figured it would be nice to know some people that wouldnt mind tagging along and getting some kills along the way and i would like some names now so when i get into the game and later on become a pilot i know who to call on.

Galaxys dont really get kills plopper. They are basically only useful for transporting, dropping on bases, and ANT runs. Problem is galaxys are sitting ducks and easy targets for AVs, reavers and tanks (if your low enough) If you want a flying vehicle that can get kills pick either reaver or mosquito.

Whenever I ride in a Galaxy (or any other transport),I always try
to get a gunner postition. Problem is you can't aim those friggin guns to save your life.

I have practiced with those Gal guns and I can't even hit a stationary target reliably. They need to put a cannon with 2 machine guns on that bad boy. Now THAT would be fun and allow the Galaxy to lay down some real suppressing fire before a hot drop.

My 2 cents

I've got to agree with zerxes and supreem here. You can't hit the side of a barn with those things. I've gotten one kill ever in all my time gunning for a galaxy. Honestly I'ld rather open a window and use a pistol. It has a huge cone, and the cross hairs don't stay center of your screen like normal, rather float around.

Sure, I'll gun for you if you ever need one. But an even better suggestion would be to just have a few reavers escort you and maybe stick with gal to protect it.
