IIRC, Seaplanes are cheaper, have T2 damage but T1 hitpoints. At least, that's what Caydr said and I've not seen anything about BA being different.

seaplanes are not T3.

They're move of an extra air plant for if you have to build in the sea it actually costs a bunch less than a lvl2 plant, the gunships are sort of lvl2.5 though, cutlasses rule!

Most decisive and important change in the changelog..Thud/Hammer now have LoS till the end of their range
HELL YES, i've been waiting for this for so long... so many days of watching hammer/thud completely miss trying to target a single flash tank on a point move order unmicro'd sent straight past them, and why? NO LOS
Nice...
N.B. Noize, could you make changelogs with previous-to-current statistics? I.e. Gator HP reduced to 760(850) or something. i.e. number in brackets is old HP and 760 is new.
Helpful for those of us that analyse AA more thouroughly. I dont want Day and yourself to be the only ones that know the intracacies of BA

hey whats the deal with the gator stuff and nothing for flashes? flashes are more annoying than gators already 
I like most of the other changes though.

nope.. in 4.2 gators beat flashes on every turn
Posted: 08 Dec 2006, 16:58
well they're better at fighting head to head but flashes are better at swarming past defenses because of their speed and size, and thats really what they're used for anyway.

are bladewings gonna get some extra survivability (Against lasers especially) to buff them alongside the Banshee?
If banshee has decent enough DPS to be a usefull unit then it leaves core a bit left out in terms of using air in a non-support role.

Not needed imo, this smells of caydresque random changesLRMT reloadtime increased
Posted: 08 Dec 2006, 17:49
it went along with the nerf of AA...
bladewings had their costs decreased by quite a bit.. their spammable.

He is agreeing with Cabbage that this change is not needed, and that he thinks it is like Caydr's random changes.Day wrote:eh?
or are you going to explain to me that that "eh?" meant something different
efb i guess

Well it has a low MaxSlope in the fbi, maybe that is the cause, i'll match it with the maxslope of the movementclass.

Bombers really don't need a buff, but whatever. I build the tonnes already Oo. Proper balancing of seaplanes would be a good idea. Make them proper level 2 or even level 1.5 with appropriate stats.
