bro I'd be flabbergasted if you knew what a nan is after seeing you fly. You keep that piece of gameplay constant because it's completely based on skill. Aiming a nan while flying around evading shots on a bomb run ain't easy. On top of that you do things like Xnan that require immense situational awareness and pilot skill to pull off successfully. It could be argued it is probably one of the most interesting mechanics in the game, and you want to straight up remove it for a faction because you're a $#@!ing tard.
Grats.

The only thing I can add to Vogue's (100% accurate, based on videos of you I've seen, and imo it's no coincidence Element flies better now) criticism of your gameplay and your idea is this:
It's been tried.
It was reverted for a reason.

Back when Pheonix was introduced, people just couldn't get their heads around how to play them or how to defend against them. Their bombers ran into the same issue as cap ships where they just don't scale well, too small numbers horribly OP, too many horribly UP.
The times it was played properly was really fun, having a fleet of fully gunned ass shielded bombers was pretty epic. I think it's main hindrance was that it required people to play the game in a way they weren't used to and suffered because of that.

That was also the era of AoE Dis3.

Dont make me clean up again. I'm quite sure I missed posts, but cant be bothered to go back and clear them all out.
All of you, keep your insults out of this forum. Don't make me figure out how to block people from posting here, I have better things to do with my time.
You can @#(!post all you want in rants, this is for actual discussion of Pcore007 and upcoming changes in 8.
Which, btw, I'm finishing up right now.
