Pend - you just gave me an orgasm with that tankdrop! Extremely cool! 10/10 from me!
Between now and the next polished release there should be very little new art work done. Instead the focus is on designing, testing, and fixing. the mod has always been so close to finished that its nearly criminal. I'd love to see this through to the end with a real community effort.

And this is SuperWeapon Farming gone wrong This is several tank drops scattered over a base.

omg that is a hell lot of tanks! if you have 3 of thise at 1 time u already ovr power instandly
LOL no... its not an over powered. The "OMG thats alot of tanks" screen is about 10 drops called at once. To put that into perspective, think what 10 nukes scattered over one base will do.
A single drop does call several tanks, but its actualy much cheaper and faster to build the tanks. and then role them into a base. it Requires 8000K building, 8 minute timer, plus it requires the lvl5 tank drop as a pre-req. But it gives 6 Overlords, 9 BattleMasters, 6 Gattling tanks. ----> = Not overpowered.
The power of a weapon like this is in its rapid deployment and repeated use. Calling one or two of these just outside of enemy AA can make a very strong offensive jesture without being an insta-kill. It can also be extreamly handy in bypassing a chokepoint on the map.
While stronger than a tomahawk storm, Compared to a MIRV or HBomb, this weapon is a joke.

In the case of the pic above, I only had 1 drop relay built, but with a 0 reload time, after I had tested it on a field several times to make sure it was stable, I went to the enemy base and used it SEVERAL TIMES FAST... basicly the same as having 10+ of them. I thaught it was funny to fill the whole map solid tanks.. so I took a screenie and posted it.

Each Tech Tree is being extended, and has a super weapon structure at the end. Because the Superweapon require 3-4 points each to reach the player will never be able to Freak-Show tech and get everything. Investing in superweapon tech will greatly limit how many unit types he can build. Tank players will have to choose thier tech tree carefully to make sure they get access to all the units and weapons they need. Different choices on the tech tree will make for some very different late game strategies.
My personal favorite is to spec out just a little in each tech to get a wide variety of units, but little or no superweapon support.

You talking bout general points or tech tree?
o wait nvm i going crazy lmao.

All generals have teh tech tree upgrade system, But all generals will have a different way of ranking up general level/points. Is that what u mean?

thats true, but tat was somehting diferent.
Tank general's powers have been replaced with unit unlocks. The unit unlocks (tech trees) are in sets. there are 3 points for lightning guns. The first rank unlocks light guns and base defenses. the second rank unlocks the hvy tank. the third rank unlocks the over charge power for lightnig tanks. There are 3 ranks of Missile tech... the first unlocks SRMs the second LRMs the third ICBMs (nuke silo).
thats not all of the options... just an example

not at all. I've just been busy lately. I'm only getting to code a little bit at a time. Both the Family and the job are giving little respite. I can't mod until after the children are in bed, and lately they'v been up until late.I hope the lack of updates isnt an ill omen.

Do not threat guys, Creator works hard on his contra mod and pend works hard on the remix aswell. so when they go quiet and don't post updates for a week or month then please don't post asking.I hope the lack of updates isnt an ill omen.
They do have lives and have to prioitise (ie: family/work comes first) mod making is more like a hobbie.
Rest assured Pend is working as mucha s he can on the mod and is doing a great job

But it's good to know the mod isnt dead. It is often inactivity that can lead to the death of mods.
