So with all the problems with the spamming of these two consumables I believe a simple fix for this issue would be to limit any strike to the commander of a given team. Think like in Battlefield 2142(Have not played the most recent ones so bare with me).

In that game the commander had control of the Orbital strikes, UAV drops, and supply drops, and map scan sweeps all on a reasonably long CD.

Not only that but playing with your squad also gives your bonuses on top of getting bonus XP. You would get access to new gear you have not unlocked yet. So say if your lance works together perhaps allow mechs to gain the ability to pop their own personal UAV multiple times instead of using your own C-bills after every game. Just an example. Sure there will be some minor tweaking but I believe this is a solid way to help out this issue.

.. or adapt to the reality with which you're presented.
Because, it will eventually change, and it will most likely not be anything close to whats been envisioned by the "let's fix air/arty strikes" crowd.

Just "throwing them all into a trash bin and setting the trash bin on fire" would be the best solution, in my humble (and objectively factual and correct, so don't you DARE argue with me, clan scum) opinion.

Meh.. I'm more of the " cut em, cut em slow while I watch" type.
Oh, and is that your left hand way of saying that air/arty strikes are/should be a dumpster fire?
Very creative.

It may be a "problem" for you, but it certainly is not for me. Posted Image
