far and away the most lacking thing in AA is a Core lvl 2 helper vehicle. the other con vehicles are so slow and clumsy, plus the nanolather taking forever to come out, they are worthless as helpers. the way it is now, vehicles are way worse than kbots for building stuff, despite being cheaper and h...

anybody remember the barbican unit from OTA?

it was a download my brother got. big defense tower that i think shot a ton of medium range plasma. bring it back? anyway i think there should be better options for vlv 2 defenses against rushes of small fast kbots. this would balance the ease of overwhelming longer range defenses like a few pop up ...

maybe just change the name to leeroy? I think it would be cool to make a unit that temporarily sabatoges things...a la spy in red alert 2. maybe make it have a special power like stealing metal if you get it to an enemy metal extractor? or emporarily shutting down a unit, but i guess that would be j...

noticed xta has a few better looking units than AA?(brawlers

noticed brawlers and coms look better. why don't units look the same across all mods? can we use the same models for AA in next updates?

1.can we make it so a) metal extractors have a big enough area so you can build a moho mine on the same spot later without reclaiming first(most maps don't give you enough room) b) automatically make it reclaim regular extractors when you try to build a moho on top of it 2.let you build stuff over t...
