Default Re: inf assault

I quite agree that there are certain to be some transport pilots that are "better" then average.
For instance I'm sure the USMC pilots that fly Marine One (The US Presidents copter) are amoung the best there are.
But in general - much like fighter pilots VS bomber or transport pilots - the ones flying the more "aggressive" types of birds are more likly to be the "better" pilots.
With my method of giving combat type helos a +8 formation modifier to their experience they are statistically likly to be "better" then transport helos without the modifier, but given the random experience generation used by WinSPMBT some transport pilots will be, and are, better then some combat pilots.

While I'd be the first to admit my method and reasoning WILL annoy some players (and game designers *wink*) and/or seem to be cheating or mini-maxing I find that the actual in-game results of this modification to do a pretty good job of better simulating "reality" then the current methods. Does this mean I'm "right" and they're "wrong"? Hardly...as with ANY morale/experience issue its a VERY subjective thing. That's why any non official OOB modification is properly viewed quite skeptically by the game designers and labeled "Use at your own risk" by players.
