Plasma Mortars
I Have been think!!!
What about a replacement for the Bombarment Mortor (After Researcher Pepperpot): Replace it with a Plasma Mortor
it should have a similar use like the Wraith on Halo (I will try to post a picture soon)

Re: Plasma Mortors
Incendiary mortar works wonders already.
Re: Plasma Mortors
There already is a plasma mortar in the game, you might be able to implement what you've proposed by making a mod.Knossos117 wrote:Replace it with a Plasma Mortor

Re: Plasma Mortors
why arent they in skirmish as standard may i ask?
Re: Plasma Mortors
For like the seventeenth time, because they're not balanced.Roux Le Corps wrote:why arent they in skirmish as standard may i ask?
They're also mess up sync by a ridiculous amount, though that's true to some extent of all artillery.

Re: Plasma Mortors
oh? how unbalanced? too much damage? no fitting tech tier? etc etc?
Re: Plasma Mortors
Too much damage was the biggest issue. I've been considering adding a nerfed version to the tech tree for a long time.

Re: Plasma Mortors
yeah would be a good plan, i think maybe the range should be killed a little too, played an mp map with preplaced plasma mortars and until end game you just couldn't touch them.
Re: Plasma Mortors
I don't think range should be changed. It already is short ranged compared to other arty... I was thinking about it having no initial damage, but only having splash damage... And a bad accuracy.Roux Le Corps wrote:yeah would be a good plan, i think maybe the range should be killed a little too, played an mp map with preplaced plasma mortars and until end game you just couldn't touch them.

Re: Plasma Mortors
yes low accuracy would make that a bit fairer, Zarel what do you think of those?
Re: Plasma Mortors
No. Accuracy adjustments don't work with artillery, especially artillery intended to hit mobile units. Low accuracy is just annoying to people, it's better to turn down damage instead.

I think the whole idea should just be left, artillery is strong enough -and annoying- as is.

Yeah... I am glad for the upgrade in 3.0 to no overkill.

Re: Plasma Mortors
actually, and this will get some horrid feed back, but has anyone attacked a base with artillery with low accuracy? the spread doesnt take out buildings as fast, but knowing that its not focussed and will spray around to hit other buildings/units is a fun tactic
