Hokum is China, and GLA wont have aircraft neither will the militia, sorry guys but they wont, well they will but only from the Tech Airfield. There will be a bigger airfield, and there wont be a C-130, I used to have one, that did that, but you actually had to pay for the units that came in it. But I removed it due to unfairness.

What about that huge airfield you showed us a while back? Any chance of seeing that?

[Karlos Vandango]

i wannted a hevy bomber airfield

[Ace22]

That can be easily configured to carry heavy bombers.

Any chance of the GLA (and eventually the Militia) spawning helos from the Tech Airfield?


Also is there any possible way to have helos spawn from the GLA Arms Dealer? I saw that done once elsewhere. It miraculously flew through the roof of the factory after it spawned, but hey, I don't give a darn as long as it works.

[Vanguard]

Yeah they will each have atleast one heli, and each side will have three different planes.

I reccomend a news or police chopper for the Militia.

[wolfshadow]

A JetRanger (Kiowa) would be a good militia chopper... Or a old Huey (UH-1 Iroquois)

Laser Gen: Particle Plane

It has a ball-mounted particle beam on the underside that can fire independantly of the plane's direction. It is more powerful than the Linear Tank, but it only has enough power to fire about five times each trip. It has to cool down for a few seconds between shots, otherwise it would melt off.

Laser Raptor:

It is a Raptor with a pair of laser turrets replacing the Sidewinder bays. They can fire in any direction and hit ground or air units. They have enough power to fire five times. However, once you get the Microwave Dish(see below) it will auto-regenerate its power in the air, but not as quickly as otherwise.

The Slammers have been removed in favor of a pair of plasma cannons. They can fire six times at ground units, but their effectiveness is limited agains moving targets. They are not turret mounted, so they can only fire straight forward. They have a limited vertical vectoring ability, so that reduces the minimum range a bit, but it still has one. They can not recharge the plasma cannons in the air.

It is still stealth right up until a second or two before and after it fires.

Microwave dish:

Either a building or an upgrade to Power Plants. It uses a large dish to transmit power to any unit in the field that can't generate enough power on its own. Required to build Linear Tanks and the Particle Plane. It also increases the power of any laser units which do not require it. Alternately, it shoots a microwave beam into space, then reflects off the mirror back to your units. Once you get this upgrade, any enemy infantry unit around your laser weapons will slowly take damage from the microwave beam.

Appearance: A large grid of little laser guns pointed either up or at your units. One is required for every ten or so units required by it. The beam looks like a narrower version of the Microwave Tanks. Every time you build a new unit, another microwave beam lights up. If you get it blown up, the units it supports will not be able to fire but can still move. If it just increases their power, they will be returned to normal power. If you have ten laser tanks(which can generate enough power on their own) and twelve linear tanks(which cannot fire without power support) and one grid gets destroyed, the laser tanks will return to normal power first and only two linear tanks will shut off. Build a new linear tank while your beam limit is exceeded and the beam will be taken off something that requires it.

Also, drop Townes' Abrams. It just doesn't fit his side.

I have an idea for the charge animation: Instead of looping while firing, make it charge up slowly after firing. The time it takes to light up all rings is the time it takes to fire again. That way, you can give it some sound by programming it into the firing sound. Keep it charged while idle.

The above post was me, sorry.

[Ace22]

we all make that mistake once in a while.

[link.the.first]

Yea I suppose a single laser on the Raptor would make sense. Two spaced out a bit would look pretty cool though. If some rockets are kept, give them a plasma shockwave.

About the not signing in thing, are you on a public computer or at home? If at home you can set Revora to remember you.

[7th_Panzer]

I'm at work.

[Karlos Vandango]

laser missles on a raptor dont look good trust me ive seen it been done before and it looked horrible

[wolfshadow]

Any chance of replacing the current MiG with the J-11 (Su-27 Flanker) ??

Much better looking airplane. *G*

[Karlos Vandango]

i like the mig
and i would like the su-27 in pr

[wolfshadow]

What about using the Flanker for the White Tiger Elite squadron instead of the Foxbat?
IIRC, the Chinese don't used the Foxbat, and the Flanker is a better Fighter... Foxbat is a specailized intercepter designed to go after American bombers. Flanker is freakin' manoverable, and they have the helmet mounted site for look-down, shoot-down technology... The missiles for the flanker are tied to a helmet mounted sight, and basically, if the pilot can see it, he can kill it.

[Karlos Vandango]

the flanker reminds of the game and a really funnny stroie bout it

[link.the.first]

Not laser missiles like the ones on the Commanche, they are standard missiles with a red/blue laser/particle beam looking explosion.
