What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
[This suggestion would replace the riot shield with the deployable shield, on the Security Captain role.]
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
[Couldn't find one]
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
[The positives of giving Captains their shield back include: the ability to set up checkpoints at points of interest, more strategic advantage when defending dblock or on catwalk, better firing line structure for scp breaches or raids, better coordination with Chiefs/SGTs/SCUs and overall quality of life enhancements. As well as the ability to use both shields together, due to the riot shield being available in the armory already.]
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
[The only negative I can imagine is the shield being overused possibly, but the Captain role is a whitelisted CL4 role, handpicked by the Chiefs, so I do not believe abuse would be an issue.]
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
[Based on the positives and negatives, I believe this suggestion should be accepted due to the quality of life improvements it will bring, the advantages it will grant Captains during combat or codes, the better synchronization between members of GSD and the overwhelming amount of Security Captains that miss the deployable shield. The deployable shield is an all around upgrade to the currently available riot shield. Everything that you can do with the riot shield, you can do with the deployable shield and more. The fact that SCU/SGT/CoS all have access to the deployable shield but Captains do not, severely hinders us in assisting them in many different situations. I believe this change would be welcome by all of GENSEC and will be seen as an overwhelmingly positive addition.]
