Space raptors!!!!
« on: January 12, 2016, 04:00:54 PM »
:o how cool would it be if we could all play as the ssi-ruuvi  (sorry if i spelt that wrong) in imperial civil war, i honestly liked them even tho they were kinda the bad guy in the stories they were in . think, leading your own "raptor squad" *is shot for the jurassic world reference* into battle. if this was possible, what units you guys think they would use

Nice idea, but considering how they would be irrelevant to the mod's overall atmosphere I wouldn't count on them possibly being added. If they were considered to be implemented they would most likely be in a scenario similar to the Black Feet Crisis, not to mention the small roster they would muster as well. In short, the mod doesn't have the luxury to add every single detail from the Expanded Universe sadly.

On a less serious note, if they were added I'd picture one of them having laser cannons strapped on their back like in that laser dinosaur fight video.

Given the difficulty of coming up with ground units, I dare say you'll never see them in ICW.  Ascendency might be another matter.

Would be nice to do a couple of EotH GCs against them, some Nuso Esva ships and pirates.

Pretty much this. We're pretty much maxed out on factions so we're not going to the trouble of making infantry that complicated for a faction that would probably require a new GC to be made for them to be in the mod at all. Much more of an Ascendancy possibility where we could focus on their unique elements without having to worry about effectively pointless ground units as a prerequisite for them to exist at all.
I also have a YouTube channel where I talk about mod development and gaming, do tutorials, and Let's Plays. If you like the content, consider supporting it on Patreon
