I am still in school, and my 12 year old brother can spell better than you. And we don't need a spell checker here IMO, because you should have either a) Firefox or b) know a site like dictionary.com to check it.

Sorry mods if I am going into your territory, I'm just peeved that someone could spell that bad.
uh this guy probably isn't a native english speaker

Ok my idea is a new race that is compleetly nomadick, all there bildings can move and a lot of the units, when terned off, duble as difensis. To balins this race all you need to do is make T1 units be T1 base difens i.e. AA vehicle into AA tower etc. etc. it would have the strongst, fastest and heavyst T2 but weak T1. Econimy is bad and units are expensive. Please coment.
I have an idea. I have no knowledge of modding (or programming for that matter), but if someone would like to take this idea and fly with it, that would be just fine. Ok, my idea is a new race that is completely nomadic, all there buildings can move and a lot of the units, when turned off, double as defenses. To balance this race all you need to do is make T1 units be T1 base defense i.e. AA vehicle into AA tower, etc. It would have the strongest, fastest and heaviest Tech2 but weak Tech1. Economy is bad and units are expensive. Please comment.

Even that is kind of hard to understand. But it sounds really cool, and would work, if you know how to mod, and it's not hard. ^_^
