New Variant : AA Necromancy Edition

[Foxomaniac]

Yes, you read the title correct.

In this variant, all units with a nanolathe can ressurrect.

The idea came from demo - who complained that rezzing was underused.

Changes :

1. All nanolathe-capable units can rez.
2. Rector/Necro removed.
3. Commanders don't have a corpse anymore, ala OTA - Comm dies, Comm goes to comm-heaven/hell. Period.
4. ????
5. PROFIT!

Tread carefully.

What I believe that this would change :

1. The ability to easily restore bases with adequate energy.
2. Construction units become medics, ala wolfenstein : ET, they can help with the war even more then now, construction unions demand more wages for workers.
3. Defensive positions become a double-edged sword.
4. Encourages strategy : Multi directional attacking / Constant-attacking as to prevent the enemy from er... desecrating your noble warriors, etc etc.
5. ????
6. PROFIT!

Comments? Thoughts? Change proposals? Hate?

Post!

Final note : I suspect this variant would be a favorite of the greenfields crowd.

Kill an enemy con unit and play Arm+Core?

[Foxomaniac]

Yes.

Similiar to the RA2 Unholy Alliance mode.

Oh and another thing - Self-destruct doesn't leave a corpse.

Think about that for a second.

Oh snnnnnnnnnnap!

[TheRegisteredOne]

self-d CAN leave a corpse.the decay level is determined in the script.

[Foxomaniac]

Not in AA, It goes Oh snap - No corpse.

Now now, no one cares about this variant or do you all want flash pictures? >_<!

wait, what was the point of this argument anyways?

[Noruas]

Well its a good idea, but people just like the original the most, besides if commanders can rez, what good is rushing.

[Neuralize]

Well if your commander is ressing, he isn't building. Sooo...

/me believes that this variant is made of FAIL with horrible balance and units that do the same thing as AA units, only worse and with higher cost.

*whistles*

Except yours removed units.

2 Units that became redundant.

Sure, I could give the rector'necro cloak and uber workertime but that'l only make them into super-doper-uber-fast-building-assisters unless I increase costs to that of the XTA FARK.

At least I don't .cheat and spawn super units everywhere when I'm losing .

Don't even get me started on the so called builder-wasp.

this is just like an OTA mutator, that to be honest, didnt really improve the game. on the contrary, it became VERY porcy, and AA is already leaning that way a bit too much. sorry to belittle your efforts, which were probably quite big, but i dont think this will take off

Actually, the effort was miniscule.

It took about what?

30 minutes?

I only did it to make DemO stfu .

[Ishach]

Make a mutator where commanders are air transports that can transport other commanders and the complosion is enough to destroy everything on epic.



Winning idea ITT
