Hi everyone!
so, you wanted "hover-things"...I give you ships e.enot happy yet? well, we can't really have everything we want :p
---- nha nha nha, ok! I'm going to include some hover vehicles for the alien faction, but it's gonna take some time until I actually work on anything for them ;) ----
Ok, so...the Airships:
Type-224D Class Destroyer
General characteristics
- Crew: 16
- Length: ~140m
- Powerplant: x2 Type-310 Nuclear reactor(s) -one in each side
- Maximum speed: Mach 1.2

DDX-1300NH Class Destroyer

So, remember when I talked about support units? Well, let's call this the "next level" of support units...
Requirement to build those little punching bags are:
USA: Strategy center, Area 51, "New Hope" Science, DDX-1300 upgrade\research at the Area 51
China: Propaganda Center, Foreign tech hack lvl 3, Type-224 upgrade\research at Propaganda Center
And...No, there won't be Airships for ALL factions, just the ones that would actually be able to possess those if the scenarios of this mod happened in real-life...
So, only USA, EU, China and Russia will possess those monsters....besides of course, the aliens which will possess Space-ships....
The other factions will possess other bonuses related to other areas, such as infantry warfare and anti-air weaponary, or something like that....
If I'm able I'll add more than just one ship per faction...
...Well, this is it...for now (>.>)
Suggestions? just leave a comment
Concept art? PM-me and I'll take a look ;)
Corrections of my english? ...well, sorry if there is too many grama errors, its 6:00 am and I haven't slept yet :p
Could you rename Area 51 in to a more generic tech center name, please?
Also for the Aliens an idea for them is that their units are spawned by landing a transport in an area similar to ROTR's VTOL pad's reinforcements.
Area 51 will only appear if you position your mouse over the building, the name in the build order(command set of the dozer) is "Research center" :p
To avoid confusion Area 51 should be called Research center
Not everything is knocking off RotR!
most definitely! Innovation\creativity is important
and the Airship from ROTR's VTOL pad would easily be shot down by BVR-Air to air missiles
You should build a ship based on the Kodiak.
