Once you hit Admiral, a nice idea would be for non-major line quests, that you can designate a Bridge Officer to lead the away team.
One the Beam down screen pops ups on those quests you have the option to select a BO that is not one of the other four in the party. The leader will be controllable as if you had send down your character, as well as give commands to party member BOs.
As leader that BO would be able to equip kits and use their normal BO powers. They however are only able to equip one weapon.
This has been talked about and was something that was being considered or talked about as part of the 1st officer playable Captain update, we just have not heard much about it as of late. It is my impression that is still aways out from being a reality.
