Me thinks they released the vehicles they had done with that main vehicle reliease, so we have all these shots of skeeters, and it does look cool, but i think that when we have all ships and everything in we will see people who want fast fighters will go for the light or medium gun hips, and people who want to *win* air battles will go for the reaver (actually i think the light or medium will be better for air combat casuse of spead and the reaver will be like anti tank) But yes a skeeter could attack a tank and if the tank does not have a chain gun ( we dont know if they all will) it could kill it, more then one skeeter incresses the chance, but its gonna take time.

I plan to demonstrate that a Swarm(tm) of 5- 10 Mosquitos will be very deadly as a strike team.

I would hope/imagine both but for obvious reasons it would still have to land to drop off vehicles.

Unless they include parachutes for vehicles, if so the galaxy is gonna be a very important vehicle.

Guys I think most of you are missing quite a few variables in these situation... 1) how often are you going to see Galaxies unescorted?? probably hardly ever... my guess is there will be 2-3 reavers for cover atleast 1 skeeter hanging back to heal and 2 or so going ahead to scout. 2) skill of the pilots... there are always people who can do the almost unaccomplishable... and there are also people who completely suck and couldnt play fps games if there life depended on it. 3) we just dont know enough about the ships yet to know what they will be able to do and 4) even if say the Galaxies or Skeeters are really powerful to begin with thats what beta is for... Im sure they will be nerfed to perform like they were designed to. In WW2 did they send in the bombers in alone? No they had escorts... Plus we have only seen 3 airships... im sure there is atleast 1 or 2 that will be empire only so thats another 3-6...

I think it really depends on the projectile speed of the Galaxy turrets. If the gunners just need to aim directly at their targets mosquitos are going to be easy pickens, but if they have to aim ahead of the targets to account for speed then it will be much harder.

I personally think lone Galaxy's, once discovered, should be pretty easy pickens for a team. If you really want to get a good drop in a team should have to bring 3 or more fully loaded Galaxy's in to cover eachother and still have mosquito and reaver support. A single Galaxy should have a bit of trouble with a single skilled mosquito pilot on it's tail. However, two or 3 galaxy should stand an exponentially better chance against 2 or 3 mosquitos then one would on one mosquito. This is all really just my opinion but whatever we get stuck with I'm sure will be fun.
