Zaarin tried that with a cloaked corvette...sadly it had some side effects and he came down with a bad case of...deadYeah, but a malfunction in a complex sistem like a cloaking device is sometimes inevitable.
The PA has plenty of units which can attack air units, but on the whole what doe these units do that another PA unit doesn't already do? The Skiff and ISP already serve as scouts. Sure that would mean a faction doesn't use a repulsorcraft as a scout but that's an aesthetic change, and the unit is functionally redundant.I ment the AT-MP instead of the AT-AA, cuz it's a tipically imperial AA unit, and the PA should have it's own,
The basic roles are all filled and any of these additional units, while some people might think they'd be cool to have, don't actually add anything except visual variety. The mod's already 4.5 gigs and each faction has more than enough units. We've also been in beta for the final version for the last 2 months, so the chances of us deciding to add another unit that isn't actually filling a new role are practically nonexistant; visual variety can be nice, but the little time we have available for art assets is already prioritizied for remaking assets that need it to improve performance or visual fidelity and reduce filesize.Well that's true.You have a large point in this
Sure they were important to the founding of the PA, but they don't really have a role they can fill in the mod. They weren't military figures, so they would make terrible heroes for either land or space; giving them a ship or vehicle would really just mean you get a single free Providence or Floating Fortress or whatever that's no different from any other; there's no rationale for giving them a combat bonus. As a galactic price-reduction hero they'd also be more harmful to gameplay than they would be interesting to have. You already have one hero whose entire purpose is to provide a cost reduction/build bonus. If you had two more then you could cover every important production planet with one hero and the discounted price effectively becomes the actual price for ships.Maybe, but the PA definately needs heroes, and that doesn't change this fact. Giving more heroes to the PA is more than unquestioned by everyone who only once tried to play AoW with the PA.
Jerec himself was already a stretch, since he's mostly just "PA by association." Tremayne on the other hand had been clearly associated with another group since before the PA even existed.Thats true again.
Agreed Otro and Besk would be pretty cool to have, the PA is quite low on the heroes. Some Heroes able to take the ground would be awesome, like Kaine in some sort of ground vehicle so that he can fill both roles?I dont think making Kaine a land/space hero would be the best thing...
