The balance that you were discussing at the beginning is something I find very interesting. Since IMO GDI subfactions got shafted in balance terms for their boons (Yh they are still powerful don't get me wrong). Like you said ST lost all their T3 infantry and defence options. Zocom lost their only artillery and T3 walker. I think Blackhand are the only ones that get close to that, in losing all their air units. But air units feel a lot more niche than artillery, certainly require a higher skill ceiling. Reaper lost T3 air, Traveller just lost T2 artillery, MK lost their anti building unit.
Masterleaf, I faced a bug : when a flame tank was flaming my structure, I tried to EMP it with my awakened squad, it was EMPing the tank but the flame stayed on and was damaging 😕
Would you be interested in making a reliable strat to steal your enemies entire tech tree, not just some enemy husks. What faction is best for this? Does emp help?
In my experience, steel talons. Put engi in mrt and build like 5 mrt with rifle and rocket then capture the mcv. Its not perfect and easily countered by enemy macro but its the easiest.
I got an idea for the next patch. Units gain experience through killing a certain amount of credits in units. So shouldnt the garrisons in epic units also count towards that value. So like a Marv with 4 engis shouldnt be worth 5000 credits in kills but 7000. If this is already implemented nevermind then.
@masterleaf, consider nerfing hammer heads please. Just 4-5 HHs with AP ammo, specially when grenades inside, the opponent is dead. These r just unkillable even with heavy anti air structures and units. I understand that similar is the case with blue flame tanks , but Flame tanks don't fly, they r not fast, and can be EMPed. Flying units with do much damage power, and are pretty tanky to take damage, it's just insane. HHs are just gonna immediately take down tier 2 or power plants, so no anti air structures, and even if there are anti air structures, HHs are gonna melt them quickly.
