Ready to roll out!

[Wing Zero]

Crucio Siege Tank

they cost more now

 

[betaalpha5]

and yet they still did not put a gun to fight off air units

 

[WW2R]

i thought it might be interesting to have an upgrade to tanks so that you can load a single marine into it as a gunner. seen this in a few other rts and it seemed to work pretty well. of course if the take dies so does the marine

 

[Wing Zero]

sounds like an ok idea. Although that would make it a hassle late game i think

 

[Emperor Pan I]

I don't think adding a second weapon to a siege tank would make it in the least bit balanced. They had to remove the ability to move and fire because it was far to cheap to just dance around the tank and fire on units.

 

[ChrisH36]

That would be like making the Crucio into the Wc3 Steam Engine. It could only attack buildings, but could target up to 6 air units and fire missiles at them. Although they were weak, a number of them could weaken or decimate air just as bad as a flight of Flying Machines.

Besides, you could use air or fast ground units like Zealots to slaughter those things effectively.

Hey, there's a medic in that movie

 

[Zmoney]

Notice how the medic ate the first siege blast. Wtf was that must be Hax.

 

[ChrisH36]

Either that tank was on manual fire.

Or they added target priority values like they did in Warcraft III.

 

[Ninja_Blue]

Yea, it missed a couple of times.

Plus, doesn't the medic have a lot more HP than the marines?

 

[ChrisH36]

By 20 Life.

 

[betaalpha5]

watching it again it didn't hit the medic it hit a marine first. guess it was the closes to it. it didn't go after the medic until all the marines were dead.

 

[ChrisH36]

Which pretty much explains I did.

Usually, any unit fires at the closest target, then goes for the higher proirity one.

 

[Zmoney]

No No.... the medic is all by itself and its all alone running away and it eats a blast and keeps running lol.

P.s. no way a medic has enough hp to eat a cannon blast.

 

[betaalpha5]

okay then yeah i guess that's true considering that the marines had combat shield.

you know instead of having a marine in the tank i would like to see it have a firebat. HAHA take that zealots!

 

[Emperor Pan I]

No No.... the medic is all by itself and its all alone running away and it eats a blast and keeps running lol.

P.s. no way a medic has enough hp to eat a cannon blast.

You do know those videos aren't a reflection of the game. They are just to show the animation, and none of the units have proper stats.

 

[ChrisH36]

Shhhh, give him something to believe in.

@Zmoney: In SC, damage from Siege tank is cut in half vs infantry.

 

[Zmoney]

Either way he ate a cannon blast lol I was pointing it out because its funny....

 

[ChrisH36]

It kinda was, now that you think about it.

Not all infantry. Well, if you count a dragoon as infantry that is.
