Battlefield Token Commando Bunker

Battlefield Token Commando Bunker
This prefix is applied by a Galactic Senator when they are officially sponsoring a post for consideration by the Development Team.

Proposal
Written on behalf of Nexxis
Modify the battlefield token commando bunker to be in line with other end game structures. Increase storage capacity to 500 and increase the volume via an elevator at the top and a bottom floor similar to the mustafarian bunker (maybe just 1 level). Utilization of existing in game assets would make this an easy fix.
Justification
Current market valuation of approximately 3-6M per 100 tokens the commando bunker has a valuation of 4.2M - 8.4M credits. Structure is no trade so its limited to player being involved in this content. This is a large time sink for the player similar to if not greater than the life day tree which has 500 storage and 2 lots.
Motivation
Small topside footprint makes the commando bunker desirable for Mayors as well as the role-play aspect of the Commando Bunker. This gives the commando bunker a unique aesthetic while maintaining a small footprint.
Battlefield Commando Bunker is a unique end game structure currently limited to players involved in server events or organized PvP content. In addition to the token costs, it will most likely not be the players first choice considering the requirement for weapons and consumables, this will most likely be purchased after the player has spent 600+ tokens.

Thanks for adding this on Nexxis's behalf Wayne.

Whole heartedly agree, for the reasons discussed above with this change. There is player interest here, I have heard many dissuaded/become disenfranchised due to the small space available in this bunker.

It may also be worth considering a similar change for the V.I.P bunker.

Marking as senate approved, due to prior discussions on the discord. Thanks again!

Just flagging that the justification here is a bit wonky. The other 500 storage/2lot houses - the tree house is only available for a few weeks per year, the sandcrawler house (chronicles) costs 48 gold tokens, and the barge house (heroic vendor) costs 10 heroic tokens each - and all three of these have massive blueprints which somewhat offsets how overpowered they are in terms of storage:lots ratio. With this change the BF commando bunker suddenly becomes extremely strong in that regard, especially considering BF tokens are unlikely to retain the value stated as 200+ people just received 200+ tokens each due to petranaki.

I'm not for or against this atm I just think there's some other stuff to weigh it against.
 
The Bunker is just too small. and an increased size version, maybe a medium (3x) and large size (5x?) if easy to create, would add depth to the bf loot table for 1 and increase diversity in the community with diffrent scaled unique buildings spread around. Its a great looking building and adding a basement level via a simple elevator panel like sail barge seems an easy addition.

Thanks for providing this feedback, its definitely worth considering parity between storage of other buildings and this one. Cheers!
