There has been a lot discussion around the Long Tom game mechanic in Faction Play recently with Russ stating on Twitter "I am asking for the Long Tom to be reviewed". Many suggestions have been put forth including less damage and longer intervals between strikes. However it has also been stated that these ideas "are merely trying to tweak a broken game mechanic", a position I now agree with.

This thread intends to be a discussion area for alternatives to the Long Tom as a reward for gathering Intel to aid your faction on invasion mode. To be clear, the intention is remove the Long Tom from Faction play entirely and perhaps keep it for private matches only.
To this end, my proposition is to replace the Long Tom with another 'Information Warfare' mechanic (i.e. The Satellite Sweep lasts longer and gives the enemies directional orientation).

Please post your ideas below and let me know what you think. If you're feeling very enthusiastic tweet this thread to Russ and let him know you don't want to see a nerfed dud Artillery.
