2. Having them as Eden only is a BIG BIG problem. A swarm of flying thors hammers = God like power that cant be stopped even by a emp missile.
I definitely agree with this...
5. 1800 and 600 common/rare that is like the cost of a Rail Panther, and those can still be spammed. Tigers that cost more then that can be spammed. Having them uber expensive is pointless to the unit that is weak super fast and can carry weapons.
If every unit can be spammed, then why are we arguing about spamming any units at all?
You could cripple the air unit by limiting how much it can shoot on a single sortie. Rather than a range or speed limit. Then it is useful for what aircraft are ment for. Deep strike and run, cavalry, or harrassment.
6. Finaly some one thought of where they are going to land. Or just have them VTOL (Vertical Take Off and Landing).
Yes, I brought this up before. I think someone mentioned earlier about having them dock at a hover port. Then you could only support air units commensurate with the number of hover ports you built. (also reducing spam)
Air unit will have a HELL of a ride on Cythera. Why? Wind...simply. As you know on Venus there is A LOT of wind and wind tend to '''help'' aircraft touch the ground very hard.
This is more of an argument against aircraft than anything else. It gives a reason why it wouldn't work! (Rather than "they can't") New terra couldn't support winged craft either.
Skydock - don't be so easily swayed man...
And lastly: Can someone explain to me why a ground unit can't fire at an air unit? Why could you not hit an air unit with a laser/mic, thor, or even EMP or RPG? Laser and thor don't require sophisticated targeting (they're instantaneous). And computation of lead for an EMP/RPG should be an issue for advanced computers...
Anyway... Sorry for the long post.
