I was just thinking would it be possible to give marshal and CM reason for being ranks i have an idea im sure most people will like well i hope.
AT marshal say give 2 extra garage slots so no new ship or station needs made but i dont know anyone who would say no to extra garage space.
At CM give the use of any ship or station in the game for example i can still be on ugto but in a siphon,AD,pirate station or even a MI dread.
i dont know if any of this is even possible just thought id ask
thank you

I really like the extra slots being available either due to rank or a fleet advantage.

I like the idea of the 2 extra spaces.
Heres one for ya.
At Marshall you can pick 1 enemy ship to fly, at CM you get another. This would be cool, like your at such a high rank that you can fly captured ships.

That may make me actually want to work to get promoted again, not sure if I want that.

I'd rather have the ability to mod any ship with any tech ; ie
an assdread with quatums instead of Ions,all armor instead of shields, ass disruptors instead of hvy chems etc etc.nothing on a ship it doesnt have slot for tho.like no ions on a scout,just those weps it can normally carry but just a different factions.Something along those lines...no new ships,just a different way of modding it.

I like the garage slots idea - the fly any ship you like idea needs a little more work methinks.

Kill two birds with one stone-
Move the "command dreads" and the "battlestations" to Marshal rank. Add an extra garage slot for ships.
Move the "command station" to the Grand Marshal rank and add a second slot in garage, as well as 5 extra storage slots for res/enhancements.
Also, it would be nice if you added some slightly more powerful small ships, such as a little more beefy scout or frigate, for the top ranks to access. Would give them incentive to fly smaller ships, even with the higher rank.

Marshalls and CMs have such crazy prestige requirements that at this point is really hard to justify giving them anything.
I mean, you get the best ships in the game at Admiral. Imagine if we buffed the other ships to be aligned to this?
Personally I wouldn't mind increasing the rank requirement of all ships to fit Marshalls and CMs too. Not only would it give a great reason to rank up you'd stop giving everyone a reason to quit leveling at what is now 1/4th of the game.

the problem is, two new ranks were recently (somewhat) added, and nothing else has been added or adjusted to make it mean anything. If they just readjusted what we have across the ranks, it would work out better.
For instance, at this time, if you are running a free acct, you can pull the best supply ships. That should not be.
Or, again, all ships available by GA rank. Not right. Should be the lowest level station is a GA ship. Then split the other two between the top two ranks. Admiral and Fleet admirals for first dreads.
ah, but then the cruisers would have to be made to be worth a crap again. and then we get into that whole leveled weapon thing.
Even still, if the ships were redistributed correctly, a lot of this would work better.

Marshal and Chief Marshal are not intended to be 'attain ship' levels. They're for use at a later date, for something else entirely. Lets not forget that removing ships from other ranks has repercussions in that players who liked to use them, or used them regularly, can no longer use them.
Either way, as I mentioned above, not intended to get ships at these ranks. They're for other uses later on. Right now, they're just bragging rights.
