Originally posted by DashRendar I don't think that Jawa's or Sandpeople should cost a lot (the cost of a Trooper maybe), but I DO think that they should have to be researched (maybe called Native Forces), and that research should cost a lot(200 Nova...  [Read More]

Okay, how about some changes to them? Sandcrawler- should carry 10 infantry units and move faster than recruits for some early rushes. No attack. Evaporator farms- should generate as much food as an animal nursery with 1 or 2 nerfs inside. Ewok h...  [Read More]

I've sat and I've watch the arguement unfold, but I can't lay dormant anymore. I must POST!!! If the gunship was a flying AT-AT, it would extremely overpowered! I always thought that this unique gunship idea was a bad one, but a gunship having the s...  [Read More]

Originally posted by D'Blee Elite Warriors move appreciably faster. Whether this justifies the upgrade is a matter of opinion. I don't really think moving faster is worth the upgrade. I mean, if Elites received shields, armor, or even an hp boost,...  [Read More]

Yeah, I think that sucks. The Geonosian Warrior should get shields when it is upgraded to elite in tech-4. They aren't the sturdiest air units in the game and could use some shields. Right now there seems to be no different between Elite and Regular...  [Read More]

I think that if troopers could attack air, they'd be even more potent. I hate having a unit around that walks on the ground, but can only attack the air. It would be far more convenient if regular troops could attack air like the marines of SC. They...  [Read More]
