all the new factions (except veggies;) ) have some form of super cheese, be it GT with stangs, pt bombers, HOD, zeus, lasers etc, pnx with lasers nova bomb, laser blossom, vanguards, bombers that mount super shields etc.

of the old factions,
rix has dests and sbs

bios has invisible htts and can get good tech and tp2 well

giga has lxy ships

belters has the omni fig

of veggies factions,
tf has super caps and good tech in general (sc towers, 4 gun adv figs with hvy plas 2 etc)

dreg iz fast YO! (174m/s adv miners and cons!)


...

ic can attack their enemys with un-galvable teles and ops?

IC needs a super ship, as the military faction, military always get better weapons than are available to other factions, IC should get mk 4 tech (no ass ints, but gat 4, df 4, seeker 4, mini 4, hunter 4 sniper 3, utl 4, sig 4, pw dmg 3, ship hull 3...)

...yeah, that should give them the cheese needed to win

may be balanced because it costs the poor ic econ even more money (well, almost... it is cheese after all)

The only slight perk ic need is a slighty better econ. IC Supyard wins games over and over again.

They're not supposed to have a good econ though.

an additional level of weapons? your mad madpeople!

although perhaps a research item called extra ammo might be fun. /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

no, i think other factions need to be brought in line instead of simply giving IC cheese.

:quik edit: Belter omni figs are the biggest normal cheese currently in the game, in all out DMs the team with Omni figs and good pilots tend to win over stangs and vans.

Well i should bloody well hope so, You dont pay a penny to purchase a stang or a van, but you do to buy an omni so it only makes sence that an omni should be better.

RE:General

I know ic are not mean to have a great econ, but i do believe it needs a very slight perk, even if its only 700 more in a haul it would make a difference.

wanna rethink that mate?

Scenario: you go belter sup, its only logical and probable that you will eventually upgrade the garrison for the heavy bombers. So after you have your REAL tech you get the omni figs.

GT and Nix require no adv techbase for their things, they dont require you go a REAL techpath first.

If you want to start a thread about omni, please do.

FYI, Vanguards require you to buy a tech base.

FYII, you buy a research station for mustangs where is isnt a "real" tech base its still a large investment.

Going for either a vanguard or a mustang is a gamble as your spending 40k or there abouts to get a fighter. While ur doing that ur enemy is researching adv tech.

Belter Omni are nice, but to be considered viable needs omni tech. I would not buy Omni with only adv sup.

You can reduce the power level of factions without making them less unique. See for reference: Magic: the Gathering.
