Per sentence:Screw balance. Canon > Balance, at least in this mod. I don't care if they are overpowered. I aint` gonna send my landing craft on attacks anyway I can't risk it, they carry precious ground forces.

Well that's not very nice.
Since when?
That's your opinion. I care.
I don't know about precious... I just mass produce stormies and auto-resolve.
That's not very nice either.
Ok, that's true. OR Poof! OR They must have been cloaked.

<DevXen> Today I was at the store and saw a Darth Vader action figure that said "Choking Hazard." It was great.

Couldn't it be like heroes upgrading and the old unit disappering?It would probably be more of a hassle than it's worth, but I could, hypothetically, force a Sentinel to be in orbit before you're able to build a ground company, and then just kill it when it's finished and replace it with the company one. Too messy and restricted though, I'd imagine.

What I meant when I posted this thread is that I cannot produce sentinels or lambdas at all. I have games where I have completed the Imperial tech tree and have not unlocked them. They are also unavailable in skirmish mode. Does anyone else have this problem?
I seem to remember in one of the early development threads last year that Phoenix originally planned to give the Lambda and Sentinel 8 transport upgrades each as per the GR-75 Medium transport, but ran into a number of Techhie problems and pulled them both from the first release - possibly due to the models.
They were added to the unit roster before the full version was released, and before the final upgrade process was designed and completed.
I don't think I have seen anything since then that indicates they will be back.
However, I think they should be back purely as combat ships in the same way as the Barloz freighter exists. Shuttles after all do have a transportation capacity.
If this is the case, Sentinels should be available as heavily armored transports, with a similar role to the ATR-6.
It would make heroes more interesting if they got fully upgraded Lambdas/Sentinels where relevant.

The unit group itself works for Lambdas and Sentinels...I have two groups of four that spawn out of my star destroyers b/c that is canonically what they were equipped with. Usually just use them for starfighter defense of the SD itself, which they're pretty good at. So, you can use the unit if it spawns from somewhere anyway...

The Star Destroyers may be equipped with shuttles, but they were NOT intended for combat. They are used as... well shuttles!

That was my thought as well. I could, however, include transports in with fighter complements if there was enough support for it. What does everyone think?The Star Destroyers may be equipped with shuttles, but they were NOT intended for combat. They are used as... well shuttles!
