Push the 3-man Command Pod (Mk1-2) closer to low-tech.

I really really like doing Apollo-style Mun missions, but the Mk1-2 capsule is waaay up in the tech tree. I'd love to see it moved to the same tier as the Skipper and Poodle. The Skipper kinda fits the purpose of the J-2 Engine and the Poodle (Which I call Rockomax Service Engine because I'm using Ven's Stock Revamp which should become stock anyway) fits the purpose of a Service Module Engine, so getting a 3 man pod for this diameter kinda makes sense. At least, it makes more sense than getting it after the Hitchhiker Storage Container. (Seriously, what are you going to use the HSC for if you don't have a good pod yet?)

Yes maybe. Alternatively add a 2-person pod somewhere in between.

I would more love to see a new pod around that techlevel you mentioned that has two seats

I built ships like this in my career mode game without science experiments back in 0.23:

I agree a 2 kerbal pod would be great. I've been using the spaceplane part but it just looks a bit off.

I forgot about the fact that I was using HGR at the time, so I was imagining a pod already there. I think if a 2-man pod were to implemented, one: There would have to be a new 1.875m system; two: it would be even earlier in the tech tree. The Gemini pod was developed directly after Mercury.
