Transport mode skirmish

[Makary]

What about this: all players starts with a base outside a map, 3 factories, 3 research facilities and 2 borg factories. On map, there is some numbers of userless landing zones. A player produces units and with transport ship deploys on the map. Player wins whenever he capture and secure all LZs.

Trucks cannot build anything except the defences, vtol pads or derricks.


What do you think?

I don't like that idea. Maybe someone else does. If someone makes it, I'll try it, maybe it will be good...

I thought about this as well. It's similar to military training on brigade-level. The brigade is divided in two teams, which take preset initial positions. Both commanders are issued to conquer and hold a number of beacons. They are given the total number of beacons, what they are and positions of some, but not all, plus their starting positions contain at least one of them. These beacons can be crossroads, bridges, buildings, hills and the like. Winner is the team who controls all beacons at the same time. Of course, it is entirely legal to repeatedly capture a beacon from the opposing team. There is a deadline, and if that is exceeded, the team which controls more beacons is declared winner. This might be pretty cool.

Yeah, that "capture mode" might be cool. Naah, I've noticed that my proposal is similiar to Ground Control game. But with difference. GC doesn't have resources(only the Vitory points for controlling the Victory locations and landing zones wich they can be exchanged to units), Transport was upgrade ably, and unit have different armor depending on side (more on front, less on back)

I think it would be cool to have a "Protect the transport" mode, where one player has multiple small bases with AA defenses and light ground defenses, across a preset path, and this path has scattered LZs along it. The other player has a transport (which he can't load units one, it's a transport loaded with population or something), which he must move across the map LZ from LZ until the last LZ. There could be a "launch transport" button that orders the transport to go to the next LZ, and the transport can't be repaired. :rolleyes:

So the assignment will be to use a strike force o clear the transports path from enemy units?

Basically, would be, yes.
