Suggestion to AH to let the SEAFs act a gunners for the bastion.

DISCUSSION

Currently, crewing the bastion effectively is atleast a 2 man job. In concept, it's cool, rewards teamwork and is pretty good given the right circumstances. However, i barely see anyone outside of a select few (Including me) using it outside of defence missions where it's just parked in a static position and i crewed by a singlular gunner. This is the coolest stratagem ever, and it's being kept down by the NEED for teamwork or is used as a glorified emplacement where it could be so much more.

My suggestion would be for the SEAFs to be able to operate the gunner's position, who's controls would be handed over to the helldiver driving it. The controls are divided by default, but they would work just fine for a singular player if the view is switched to the gunner's one. The reload speed could be slower and the controls a bit clunkier, i don't really care, i just want to drive and shoot that thing and have fun with it.

And it would give a niche use to the coolest thing ever so we could enjoy it with our blueberries !

PS: I love tanks.
