Balanced Annihilation v4.7 !!
BA Discussion Has Moved Here.
My version of AA has fixed and changed numerous things about AA
(changelog in the DL)
Its basicly AA 2.23 with changes to fix certain units because caydr has been late with a new fix for just a few units, ive also made K-kbots more viable and im all in for making every unit usefull instead of a small 10% that youl ever need. for the rest all i do is FBI Monkeying so
lots of credit still goes to Caydr.

it cant outrange popups.. with this buff it can finally outrange vipers! UMG
as for the builders why is it so wrong? the veh is faster can reclaim a scout o_O because it has so much more armor
the kbots are poor slow things with hardly any health they only build a little bit faster.. its to help balance vehicles vs kbots
plasma turrets hehe well its kinda stupid if they CANT outrange them

Well you don't really need any more range, just as long as you out range what you're trying to kill.
And the con changes I can see you're trying to make kbots more usefull but fixing flashes/ scouts is more than enough, the conbot is already cheaper and can climb hills and now has more power whereas the convec is left with high armor which is a lot less useful than any of those things.

.... its only a BIT cheaper and only builds a BIT faster because it dies to anything, the convehs armor is worth more then you think if a group of conbots gets hit by a guadian you can kiss them goodbye but convehs.
their ALOT faster as well they get to things faster and can run away better
granted kbots can go on rough terrein but in most maps that doesnt really matter.

Well bots are a bit slower but they make up for it in size and acceleration, plus if a guardian hits a conveh it's blown away- will drive back to where it was- and then get blown up, so not much of a difference.
I think this mod has pretty much the same flaws as AA when it comes to changing things that need fixing in the 1st place

You're right, in theory thats the job of artillery in aa, but the dominator isn't comparable to other lvl2 arty because it's so cheap, it's just a spammable arty support unit or a quick way to clear all lvl1 defenses without combat, sort of like the morty, I actually wouldn't mind the dominator becoming more like a sniper or a merl but you'd have to re balance it.
it's not really spammable, it's like only usefull vs static defense, because the missle has a rather long travel time. you are better of buying a few of them, and spam some other units.Machiosabre wrote:You're right, in theory thats the job of artillery in aa, but the dominator isn't comparable to other lvl2 arty because it's so cheap, it's just a spammable arty support unit or a quick way to clear all lvl1 defenses without combat, sort of like the morty, I actually wouldn't mind the dominator becoming more like a sniper or a merl but you'd have to re balance it.
What if it were your solar farms..... You would have no chance of making a come back... and now you do have a chance!Lippy wrote:Don't like it! Now taking out their solar farms is not as useful as it once was. I see the benefits in getting the economy up and running quickly, but then there's a lot less incentive in protecting your energy farms.Solar now only costs metal
Other than that, it's very good!
And your energy being PWN will still hurt you a lot, all your Lasertowers will malfunction, your unit production will be stalled, you can't D-gun...
omg, Day is making a AA branch?
Omg...I may have to play spring again, damn you Daywalker!!!

I would not let my solars be destroyed that easily! It is their fault if they do not protect their solars! It also encourages people to focus more on economy rather than offense -> I can get 1 convehicle to build 3 solars, then a metal maker, 3 solars then metal maker etc.. After a few minutes of play, you will be in the black, and profit from extra metal. Now if I do this with a few vehicles, i can get a strong economy up very quickly, with the sacrifice of some attack units. This was not true in 2.23, as you had to balance energy expenditure on building more solars, or converting it to metal.What if it were your solar farms..... You would have no chance of making a come back... and now you do have a chance!

And don't bother saying that "an experienced player will not allow that blah blah" because stationary defences are more cost effective than units, and it is quite easy to porc, especially early on.

Its not like that at all, it helps for a faster start and faster gameplay..
because energy costs in AA are generally high, and solars cost nothing
(if you would only build solars) youl have more energy to spend on other things while building more, while in 2.23 lots of energy goes into building more solars, either way you NEED the energy

While I agree energy costs are high, i still don't think solars should be free. How about increases the solars output to ~25/27?Day wrote:Its not like that at all, it helps for a faster start and faster gameplay..

EDIT: Or make adv. solars cheaper?
