give the gatt upgrade back to emperor overlord. and remove nuclear missile requirement for haitan.

kwai should get 2 types of warfactories, basic for battlemasters, gatts , TCs, dragons and variants. advanced for overlord-based vehicles.

he shuld get an upgrade that reduces the cost of his vehicles.

... but with it traditional strength(hit and run)but those advantage have been severely cut off....at least in my point of view...

It depends on GLA general you play. Stealth and Demo have perfect units for shoot-&-scoot tactics.

for GLA cruiser tank...well..I've seen a replay and myself playing that GLA cruiser tank can be beaten 1 on 1 with overlord with upgrade... 5000 vs 2000 +upgrade should be less than 5000

Cruiser can pick up salvage and upgrade its armor. It is not very clever to send it to battle without any upgrades. And finally, Cruiser is the only tank in game which can perform all functions - antiair, antitank, antiinfantry and artillery. It can defeat some defense structures staying out of their attack range. Hence, the most logical tactics of using it is hit-&-run. Attack enemy defenses, defeat some weak counterattacks on you. Then run if counterattacks are too strong.

it came to current dilemma.... one have to wander if building a cruiser tank is really worth the money...

It is easy. Main power of Cruiser tank is high explosive weapons. High explosives are more effective vs buildings, infantry and light vehicles and less effective vs armor. Hence, you must use this tank against enemy bases, artillery and light vehicles must not use it to against enemy armor.

Exactly my point, although I forgot it had aa, I havn't played generals for like 2 months. The cruiser can fight anything that comes at it, although whether or not it can hold its own is dependent on what support and what it's fighting.
Even if it can't kill a heavy overlord one on one, it can still wipe the terrain with the enemy infantry, artillary, and light vehicles, while making enemy choppers think twice about attacking. I personnaly enjoy the cruiser tank, and always found it to be the most fun super unit for GLA, though I still love the others.

On a side note, Creator if you would please add some new buildings if you may find the time to. Such as the heavy factory in remix 3, and any other fun buildings you could think of, that wouldn't necessarialy build new units, but would just be new and fun to have. it'd give some more variety to the mod (or maybe some variaties on the skin of the current units, different to each general)

I was wandering creator,do you intend to remake or re skin GLA cruiser tank like you do to GLA stealth sand wraith.i'm just asking.

Yes. I made some changes to the model. It looks better now, but not as good as sand wraith. Maybe I'll reskin it later.

creator, dude, i think maybe GLA can have like zepplins filled with toxic. so it like drifts to the enemy base and when destoryed, they explode into cloud of toxic, contaminating both sky and ground. and they drop mines too. zepplin is low tech, so it fits with the GLA gameplay. and i was thinking since GLA is mostly ground, they need more HEAVIER tanks that does much more damage but also increase the damae planes do to them, to even it out.
also i was suggesting it but it seems like no one bothers to read my post. GLA need more vehicles that ambush ppl. like defence structures that comes out from the ground and shoot people or grab them into a hole or something. more AMBUSH.
and china needs something more chinese. like maybe a upgrade called mass production and conscript or something. to reduce cost of units. and they need a new super hero. i mean come on, china's heros are not internet hackers. look at their history. they need a WARRIOR. not some internet hacker. i thnk the chinese will feel insulted.
USA need a tune down. over powering. unless that is the way it should be. USA is bigger and better. china should be on par with USA. china should be given rader from the start. china isn't that backwards. and most importantly, china need more planes, other than those few. add in some heavy bombers or something. it'll only be fair to CHINA in the real world.

PLS READ MY COMMENTS.

new tech structures

creator, dude, i think maybe GLA can have like zepplins filled with toxic...

No, thanks. Zepplins are too low tech. It is like anti tank axes

since GLA is mostly ground, they need more HEAVIER tanks that does much more damage but also increase the damae planes do to them, to even it out.

GLA is not quite a ground force. GLA is mostly sabotage and diversion force. Heavy tanks do not fit them.

also i was suggesting it but it seems like no one bothers to read my post. GLA need more vehicles that ambush ppl. like defence structures that comes out from the ground and shoot people or grab them into a hole or something. more AMBUSH.

It will be sniper ambush, fake base deployment and some other ambush general's powers in Contra 006.

and china needs something more chinese. like maybe a upgrade called mass production and conscript or something. to reduce cost of units.

Maybe. I'll think about it.

and they need a new super hero. i mean come on, china's heros are not internet hackers. look at their history. they need a WARRIOR. not some internet hacker. i thnk the chinese will feel insulted.

A warrior. Chinese copy of Burton. Right? Please answer me this quiestion. Why do people always suggest to make factions identical to each other?

USA is not overpowered. You just don't know how to play against them. And game is not real world. I will not make things "like in reality".

GLA is not quite a ground force. GLA is mostly sabotage and diversion force. Heavy tanks do not fit them.

What about a tank or too that is stealthed with massive attack power but terrible defence and health, but rather fast. (hit and runish). AND is it possible to make it so that stealth detecting units need to be closer to GLA stealthed units to see them? That would be pretty good.

It will be sniper ambush, fake base deployment and some other ambush general's powers in Contra 006

Will the fake base deployment be like 3 or 4 buildings as expected in a side base? (that would be an INCREDIBLY useful power)

A warrior. Chinese copy of Burton. Right? Please answer me this quiestion. Why do people always suggest to make factions identical to each other?

Beacause ppl like their one single playstyle, and don't want to adjust it, but want the variety of other generals and units

Do you mean this one?

Yes, 4 fake buildings.

[ApOcOlYpS]

Do you mean this one?

Ha Ha. Oh look, the sand wraith. I ment a regular GLA unit that most sides have. (and again I ask if it is possible to make gla units harder to detect.(stealth detecting units need to be closer to GLA stealthed units to see t))

[morsematten]

creator, thanks for replying, i'm deeply touched.

[ApOcOlYpS]

i have a better idea have buildings that make radar gaps and are stealth detecting with the power to be bunkered and are invisible. So there well protected and make gla a bit more stealthy.

Oh yes. Stealthy. "Look commander. A big gapping hole in our radar, I wonder if there's something there?"

[morsematten]

and creator, i don mean a chinese copy of burton. burton is not a warrior, he is just a guy with heavier gun. i'm talking about the special ability, and special weapon. maybe he wields a sword and hides in the shadow, he kills without making a sound. an assassin. i mean come on, a chinese hacker as the super hero? thats not really worthy as compared to china's history. china needs someone better, someone that kills. i think an assassin fits both the stealth and assult part. and he is not the same as jarman kel. he should not hold a sniper, maybe a desert eagle on both hand and a anti tank rifle?

(I'm not from China)

And creator, seriously, whats the point of giving GLA planes if they're lousy? can you pls add some missles? and can you give more aerial advantage to GLA? like in an ambush kind of way? maybe a helicopter that can land on the ground and it's stealth. so when enemies come close enough, the helicopter can lift of and take them out? and when its done they return to their original position?

And also creator, i was saying that China needs something more chinese, China needs a place where captured enemy vehicles can go in, so that a new type of vehicle can be researched? you know, China is good at copying and improving something, so like if a humvee goes into that place, a chinese humvee comes out. a CHINESE one, a improved and cheaper version.

Have you ever thought of improving tech buildings in the map? like add new tech buildings? and it would be nice if there are places where when captured, mercenaries can be hired. some units that can only be found in the game. it'll sure add more strat to the game.

Also creator, i think the US airforce should have UFOs. i'm not joking, but it has been said that the US army captured Nazi scientists and made disc-shaped flying objects. it'll be nice to see that in the game. UFOs are totally of radar and are used for bombings, as their shape gives them that advantage.

US robotics should have upgrades like the GLA. like when a vehicle is destoryed, it leaves behind some junk? robots should also be upgraded the same way because they are robots, they can have new addition to themselves but using spare parts. would it be appropriate?

these are just things i feel are missing from the game. hope you would reply them. thanks.
