Ok so the short of it is, gallente got serpentis, caldari got guristas, amarr got blood raiders, but for some reason instead of angel the minmatar got thukker.

I propose that with the changes to temporary and permanent skins, the temporary thukker cyclone and thrasher skins dropped in lowsec are replaced with the equivalent temporary angel skins for the same ships.

this has the extra advantage of then freeing up thukker as a permanent skin option for minmatar who currently lack in variety when it comes to skins compared to both gallente and amarr.

I realise this would mean CCP would actually have to put some work in and make the angel SKIN for these ships whereas the others were already ingame, but i think it would be the best solution.

no doubt CCP will chose the other option of charging us 10k aurum for angel SKINed perm skins :p

this seems reasonable, the cut bit less so, but that's a secondary point

For posting an idea into F&I: come up with idea, try and think how people could abuse this, try to fix your idea - loop the process until you can't see how it could be abused, then post to the forums to let us figure out how to abuse it..... If your idea can be abused, it [u]WILL[/u] be.

Well this weekends glorious "bug" that allowed us to give any SKIN we wanted to any ship has just reinforced my belief that this needs to happen.

Thukker Skins look great on every minmatar ship and also on the angel ships as well to be fair.

So please lets get this sorted.
