Add paratrooper to that list for an aerial unit that can capture bases. Huge movement, but little in terms of offense/defense.

Flack Tank seems a lot like AA to me. :p

**matt538**

I think helicopters should be able to capture bases. The expense of them would balance nicely with their great range. So you'd have to really think twice if you want to use one the capture.

Interesting idea...Units rappelling down, like in Black Hawk Down, to take over.

**Uncontrol**

I just want something I can transport troops in.

nope. The Flak Tank has a range of 1-1 so aircraft can return fire.

interesting idea. The heli cost should increase a little then.

I said "a lot like," not "exactly like." ;p

**Rahl**

+1 for tank hunter for the option of a brute force land attack difficult to pull off with arts

**clone9494**

Why only make maps? Why not units too!

I think they should let Pro people design, and create their own unit, with w/e firepower, movement, and range they want, but make it cost more depending on the stats. They could have the image be like... uhhh... the persons profile image tinted their color, or a uploaded image. It wouldn't be on everybody's build menu, only people in that game, and it would have to be unrated games only though... I have always thought that a superman type guy would be cool... lol! Or maybe they could charge people per unit...

What do you guys think of my idea?

I would think about becoming pro if they did something like that...

**fabbrett**

SAM (Soft)
surface air missile launcher
cost: 450?
air attack 9
move 2 range 1-3
cannot move and shoot
Will fire on any enemy air unit that makes an attack within its range.
So if an enemy aircraft within 3 hexes of a SAM tries to attack one of your ground units , the aircraft first has to take damage from the SAM attack. multiple SAM's mean multiple attacks.

The only problem is it could potentially kill the gameplay if you have seemingly invincible units of steel, that can leap bases in a single bound.

interesting idea, but 3 of those units in a good position can get any aircraft killed which attacks a nearby unit. So i strongly suggest to let the sam unit shoot at the aircraft simultanously while the aircraft is attacking. For the costs i am missing the defense information and information on attacking land units however 450 seems to cheap.

i like the idea, but the added units should be balanced. the other players who play with the new units should check that.
