Spring RTS Engine

Introducing a new boat for arm and core to attract new players to learn and love sea, I present you *----* and *---*.

That's right! I want you to name the core six-legged boat and the arm wheeled giant.

These large beasts cost about 4000 metal and moves at a speed of 1.5 somethings, almost the same speed as a conqueror or executioner! Unfortunately because of the mass it loses half its speed when on land.

It comes with a rapid anti air scout missile turret, firing at half a second each, it does a huge whooping 33 damage per second! while 100 to air. It carries enough armor to take twice the amount of a ship killer.

Currently it has experimental cannons, firing the "guardians/punishers" orange plasma at a higher velocity turbo charged, making it a powerful punch per shot, at the cost of range. These heavy cannons are not very effective vs. small units, however strong vs. other large boats and land defenses.

Expect them raiding a shore one day near you. To be most effective with this boat, mix with hovers! The Dps is sore, but its high hp makes it a threat time consumer against defense!

HAHA
cool stuff.

Legged One could be the Lobster ( or Crab, but I prefer Lobster)... the wheelie one could be the The Krait (a group of venomous amphibious snakes or one of the specific species)

wave buggi

Awesome got to get fat to put these into BA next release!! Names: THE CROTCHMANGLER and THE BRAINHAMMERER

Lobster doesn't sound like a big mofoing land-boat...

Arm one Poseidon? Core one, Sea Lion?

Korgon
Proteus
Kraken
Morgawr

Arm Poseidon and Core Sarcosuchus ?

Something something something dark side.
Something something something complete.

On a more serious note, despite looking a lot like the duck tours boats and the ones from supcom, I really like the idea of shaking up XTA gameplay a bit.

Also, XTA seems to be littered with a ton of these, just do a /give all and be very amazed.

is this for real?
what is its range?

for name:
walker and roler

as a tribute to the best mod ever

The "noruas" and the Enterprise are my favourites.

As for shaking up XTA gameplay...

A few more uberunits at the high end of the economic scale would probably be the best bet for an injection of luls/epicness with minimal impact on "srs" play.

Arm t3 anyone?

Landboats:

Arm Tiamat "Tiamat is considered the monstrous embodiment of primordial chaos" Babylonian sea Goddess

Core Proteus "was made the herdsman of Poseidon's seals" He could apparently see the future tho...


edit: given the walker/wheeled distinction, how about making the Arm one slightly faster, and the Core one have a slightly better slope tolerance?

I liked Proteus also but Preferred Kraken or Korgon for core.

And faster turning with legs

I would imagine skid steer would be way faster than 6 legged shuffle turning.

Maybe faster accel/brake etc on the core one?

How about arm hercules and core hydra?

Hydra is a good name.
It is used in BA though..for the heaviest core ship i think.

different slope tolerance would probally suck if one version can get out of the water a one spot and the other cant. thats confusing.

CORE: Grantig (meaning grouchy/angry)
ARM: Knarr (some viking ship http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knarr)

+1 to knorke, kraken and hydra are hugely overused.

We need to remember that these names should be memorable, as such, something stupid should be considered.

Afterall the 'peewee' or the 'flash' or the 'stumpy'

Arm Noruas, Core Tribulex.


hey im making pretty luas u owe me one and we all owe you one.
