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)
IC corvs not available?

silence!, i want to get some super mk 4 cheese!apochboi wrote:QUOTE (apochboi @ Jan 5 2007, 06:13 PM) The only slight perk ic need is a slighty better econ. IC Supyard wins games over and over again.
yeah, a nicer econ would make them much stronger, or at least easier for people who cant comm well to comm

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.Camaro wrote:QUOTE (Camaro @ Jan 5 2007, 08:32 PM) :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.
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.

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.CronoDroid wrote:QUOTE (CronoDroid @ Jan 5 2007, 02:26 PM) The thing is Terra, I like Noir's idea of keeping factions unique rather than nerfing everything to help a certain faction, perking IC rather than nerfing other factions seems a lot more tasteful.
