I like the idea of the mechs. the design looks good and might fit in with the Warzone theme. not sure how much the designers plan on changing the game but a whole new type of unit is a pretty big change. as for that tank thing, i an not so sure that it would go over well. seems like we already have something like it that doesn't look so strange, i.e. tank with scourge/tank killer rockets

Thanks for the feed back

I meant it as a mount for weapons

I love the mech concept, and would love to be able to play with it, but I do see the point that the inclusion of an entirely new type of unit would probably be a too big change to be part of the 'official' game, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be included as an 'official' mod or expansion, kind of like aivolution and NTW are included with the game right now.
If there was a graphical mod loader program made and included in the installer package it would be awesome.

what would be the benefit of the mechs or mechtanks?
Or does it only change how the units look?

not sure other than that they said it could step on vehicle destroying them and the super heavy could walk up & over cliffs that tanks have to go around


P.S.I'm just giving some model options for the wish list
