Revamp Expansion Mod (RVE) A Supreme Commander 2 Complete Overhaul / Total Conversion Mod
I had an Idea about an hour ago, so I decided to give it a try !
The basic idea is an orbital/satellite like floating centre that controls 3 spheres....
Please bear in mind, that it is just a quick mock-up of an idea that I had....It's a finalised unit, I posted it for feedback :)
Interesting idea. Would these be like the weapon pods on the Wilfindja?
yeah ! that's the base of the idea :)
if you look at it, this would be perfect if you were trying to create QAI in his physical form. QAI is that red computer thing brackman was always talking to in the first supcom. though QAI unleashed the seraphim, i think QAI was really cool and that he deserves a place on the battlefield. if you remember QAI, you can see how the three floating spheres resemble the many red spheres QAI had. if your going to keep this as an aeon satellite, make the big center tower smoother.
Wow, that is a really great idea! In the ending of supreme commander forged alliance, QAI reactivated itself and had certain new "objectives". I would love to see this idea possibly in the mod's campaign.
On a side note, that red eye with spheres still gives me shivers today.
QAI never really got any thanks, even though he was really the thinking behind the first cybran campaign. the player was the driving force, brackman was the father and QAI was the brains...speaking of brackman, i thought something by the name of brackman would definatly be an experimental unit...
So would the satalight send these drones down into the atmosphere, preventing you from camping with it, and allowing you to give them some real power?
Great model btw.
very cool idea
looks like a sonar plattform , will it move ?
i wonder what avitus and leosake could do in terms of space units. i think supcom could use a new form of attack and that would be space units. but then having space units would eventually give people the idea of subterra units and subterra units would be cool, but they would be a really hard thing to counter. but the same goes with space units. then again, you can never go wrong with having more units, and a totally new form of attack would bring a **** ton of badass
i still think this would be better suited for a physical form of QAI. though, i think QAI would have many floating spheres, and the centeer would look like the drej fortress from titan ae.

imagine that with floating spheres.
if your gonna keep this unit as is, make another unit with that fortress as the center and have lots of floating spheres hover around it.
Well was the whole point for Aeon?
You can't just add more units to something when it used to be a different faction.
what? im not trying to be mean but seriously wat you mean?
indeed....I didnt get it either !
Im saying that you guys are telling them to make a QAI but this unit started off to be Aeon.
You cant just add more units to one side when it originally was meant for the other no offence.
It wont be transferred to Cybran don't worry ! although I would like to model a bee-like gunship that can spawn a swarm of bees to aid it... :D
floating CnC unit which will be placed like a turret, and this CnC center then builds/supports gunship-like spheres ?
i like that idea in my mind :D
defense or offense if i might ask ? sentry sounds like a turret unit type, but it could be mean that we might be able to use that CnC center then to coordinate a strike group of those spheres against enemies in an area around the base (range of a radar maybe ?)
or will this command unit be movable ? like a gunship which then uses those spheres as a means of attack ?
drone-spheres targetable by aa ?
I think of it as a movable command unit, but I would also like it as an area denial weapon, (I always found area denial weapons to be of highly strategical value)....so maybe a deploy-able moving fortress ? I'm not sure....
Let me finish the model first and show it to you guys finished, and then, we'll discuss it :)
i think the uef could use an orbital laser. no not that pea shooter they first had. im talking about something that would give you the same reaction when you activated the helios II from Fallout NV. opening a can of whoopass from space when your still deep in the 50s era. a lightning cannon would make the GDI ion cannon look like a ******* squirt gun!
i still think this thing your making would fit perfectly in the cybran nation. though, you couldnt really build a master computer starship on the ground so instead just build an experimental warp portal generator, then you see QAI slip out the portal in space like the alien ship did in star trek.
for the aeon, give them an orbital engineer that can reclaim, repair and build at extremely high speeds. youd think an engineer would be stupid but its so god damn powerful that it can bring up a gantry in five seconds, defenses in a split second, and it only takes a few seconds to repair your average experimental, but the thing you gotta fear the most is how it can reclaim things at the same rate it repairs, and since its reclaiming, you get the resources of the thing you reclaimed.
I believe Cybran already are really good armed and ready for the first release that is... Right now, I would like to work a little bit on the Aeon side, since I have so many ideas in mind !
