I just hate it when all my archangels shoot at a single viper or retribution. Low accuracy arty can be fun, though.

I hate artillery spams, it turns that game from a tactical war based on design and countering enemy designs, to build as many ripps as you can.....

That is also a tactic...

then you counter with VTOL or CB art while moving in tanks or borgs to eat up fire

Plasma mortars, if they were added, would be short range artillery, like mortar, so artillery spam would be less of a problem.

Just replace the incendiary mortar with the plasma mortar, and match the plasma mortar's stats with the incendiary mortar. Or, when all flamethrower and mortar ups are finished, add the plasma mortar there. Just a thought.

I hope your not talking about the plasma mortars you can find in a cheat "give all" on skirmish. Those still have a very long range.'

If not, I think it would be great to have something be a step up from incendiary mortars.

Plasma Cannon + Incendiary Mortar -> Plasma Mortar

Haven't decided on stats, though.

Plasma Mortars, get'em while they're hot! Roast vehicles and infantry quicker, and fry your enemy's structures good!

Well, since I said they'd be short range, clearly not.

To be exact, I'd change it's range to be a lot shorter (and change a lot of other things, for that matter) before making it researchable.

Like other artillery weapons: It wouldn't have a VTOL version.

fairo, but i meant how much weight/ cost we looking at? slow and deadly?

~edit~ actually plasma bombs do sound fair cool ^_^

Post by **Zarel** » 12 Jul 2010, 05:24

Definitely slow and expensive.

So... basically a super-incendiary mortar? Sweet. Can't wait to wreck AI buildings with it, since I can never seem to get into MP games.
