Description
The T.H.U.M.P.E.R. has been added in!
I need an idea for a third human hero unit! In Universe at War, this was the American President. However, since the mod is on a galactic scale, this won't do. Any ideas? Perhaps an Admiral or General? Or a commando? Make your thoughts known!
Isn't the president already dead when you play the game, if I remember properly.
Well, he starts off alive and well, and then a Habitat Walker falls on the Capitol Building.
Well each race has a unique blend. The Hierarchy has three soldiers, each with special, yet martial strengths. Likewise, the Novus have three unique heroes, one a dedicated soldier/cyborg hybrid, one an aerial scout and effective fighter, and one 'leader', who provides both strategic and analytic advantages.
So I think the humans should also have an unique blend of heroes. For example, Randal is an effective anti infantry soldier while Thumper is a great anti-vehicle tank.
So for a third hero, maybe you should put in either an aerial supremacy unit, like a hero apache unit, or something like you said. An Admiral with fleet discounts and tactical benefits like a mixture of Tarkin and the Emperor from vanilla FOC would be great. Or you could do something like a fanon novus/human hybrid mecha, but that would be too like the Novus' Mirabel. Or you could just borrow a hero from the Masari, like the Prince.
Just a few ideas, anyways, I love the progress, keep it up!
I hesitate to use a Masari hero because I hope to implement the Masari once everything else is finalized.
What about F35 Widow as a hero?
I would have to get a custom model done, but I like the idea! I talk to our modeler. In space the hero could function as an Admiral, on the ground a Navy Flyer.
I say go with a Admiral
