GODDANG IT SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOTH
i was changing the fucking COLOR of the font and somehow I broke something in the stylesheet and it RAPED THE SITE's LAYOUT
i had to kill our custom Grey Bleat theme and replace it with one of the old WP themes (although it does look good)
BUT STILL GRRR :<

Cant you just make a list of all possible tricks, instead of telling a story and using weird words? Im so not interested to read any stories.

the story and weird words makes it harder for our non-native English speaking players.

Nerf nanoshielding, make it so it only has % of its full height that's the same as % built.

Better tactic than your suggested kamikaze, but along the same lines - ignore your losses and push through the front lines. Get as close to enemy factories as you can, and let your opponent deal the damage for you with plasma cannons. Obviously only use it if he's got plasma cannons or other large AoE (high traj) weapons. Great humiliation value. The opponent will probably catch on quick, not not quick enough to set his guardian to hold fire before it shoots a couple of times and AoEs your most important structures.

My approach for beating nanoshielding - have a "MinimumExplodeDamage" amount for projectiles - if a projectile hits a target with less than X health, then it does not detonate - the target is obliterated and it keeps on going.
Then just give every weapon in the mod a "MinimumExplodeDamage" of, say, 20 or so.

Youngsters may take mental damage from it. :P
Anyway, well written, fun to read. Even if I don't play TA.
