Quote:-- Fai's buildings will spawn Mini-Gunners when blown up similar to a USA general
I like it, but at the same time Fai's Mini-Gunners are also a lot stronger (Or faster? Both?) than a normal Ranger, so the fairness of that is a bit off, but at the same time I dislike how the Chinese are the only one who don't have a, what I call a "Building Special", like how the GLA have holes that can rebuild the structure after a while, and the U.S.A. get troops from their buildings being destroyed. At the same time, however, these arn't all that important, seeing as Rangers arn't that big of a threat to tanks destroying buildings, and the same thing goes with the Holes, which can easily be destroyed by just about anything. So if you're going to give the Chinese a "Building Special", it shouldn't be something as powerful as Mini-Gunners, who I have used over and over again to defeat my opponents without the use of tanks or RPG troops unless I was playing the defensive.
Quote:-- Prince Kassad will get Snipers and a unique Jarmen Kell
As far as the Snipers go, it's a decent idea but I think we should stick with who the GLA actually are. You don't look at GLA and think "Oh crap, they've probably got snipers and a whole bunch of cool stuff sitting around!" You think "Oh god, they're going to attack us as soon as they possibly can and get it over with." When I play GLA, I don't think the best way to defeat my opponent, I think "Okay, my defenses suck but my vehicles arn't that expensive. Weak in terms of armor, but cheap. Good for swarming. Make a bunch of technicals and tanks, fill the techs with RPG troops and throw them onto the battle field."
I don't think it's a BAD idea, especially since they already have Jarmen Kell, but with how fast GLA produces income, spam queuing snipers while you're rolling in 50k of cash doesn't seem very fair in any way that I look at it personally. I hate Pathfinders as it is.
Quote:-- Two words: Quad Sniper
Might need a bit more detail on this idea.
Quote:-- Fai will get a fast Technical-style van that is stealthed and has a Gattling Gun
General Fai already has this kind of vehicle, minus the stealth and the Gattling gun, but at the same time, the Assault truck, which is loaded with 8 Mini-Gunners, is a lot stronger than a single Gattling Gun, especially if you were to put them up against the original vehicle that the original Chinese faction has. Not only that, the vehicle has Propaganda.
So as I see it as "General Fai has more than enough Bullet Firepower", I also think that the Mini-Gunners are kind of like General Fai's trademark unit, so why not provide something that gives those units a bit of a boost? Obviously, they're strong, but fragile. Maybe a support vehicle?
Quote:-- Composet Armor for General Kwai
Sounds good to me
Quote:-- Laser missile defense systems for Townes' airforce
Also good
Quote:-- Laser missile defense systems for some of Townes' buildings
I find that the Lasers are pretty decent Anti-Tank weapons, so along with the defenses you'll obviously already have in place around, and possible even inside your base, you're already going to be good in the terms of defense. I'm not saying I support the idea, but it's like you're giving away an extra defensive system when you build certain buildings. Some of these buildings could even have more Hit Points than the Laser Defense Systems, and then there would be absolutely no point in building the defense systems at all except for early game defense.
Maybe to make it a bit better, instead of a laser we give certain buildings a "Microwave Tank Beam" effect. Gets rid of at least 1 tank for the time that the building is still up. For example, an overlord. That's a bunch of firepower you just took away from them over a laser.
Quote:-- Re-add the Laser Cannon Superweapon for Townes
I didn't realize he didn't have the Superweapon...Now I have to go look. I'll edit this part after I think about it.
Quote:-- Zombies, maybe even a whole zombie faction
I'm not really into the whole "Zombie Apocalypse" hype, so I'm generally not the person you should be asking about this.
Quote:-- Hero Vehicles for all factions
Yes, yes yes, and yes.
Quote:-- Unique versions of existing Hero units for each version of a faction (for example, Laser Colonel Burton)
Yes, yes yes, and yes.
Except, however, I wouldn't give them any other special abilities or any extra firepower, seeing as they're already strong as it is, especially if you get them up 3 ranks.
Quote:-- Balance out the factions a little more
Always a yes.
Quote:-- Dr. Thrax can create a horde of Zombies for very little money
Same thing about the Zombies idea above. I would get somebody else' opinion on this.
Quote:-- Improve some in-game effects a little (I've already got blood in there)
Who doesn't like blood in a computer game? More explosions!
Quote:-- Red Guard Robots replaces Napalm Bomb for Fai's Helixs, the bomb will spawn 3 Red Guard Robots instead of fire and has a faster recharge rate.
Do you mean this as in a Drop Pod? I like the idea, as cool as it sounds, but obviously you'd have to set a fair countdown limit to it, and at the same time, you can have unlimited Red Guard Robots just by purchasing 1 Helix. Think about how many youll get with 20 Helix's.
