Post your unit ideas here let your voice be heard

[Sentinel Soul]

OK so I have a few reasons for making this particular thread

1) I know that I am going to have multiple ideas for units and I want to be able to post all of my unit ideas without having to create a new thread and flood the forums with multiple threads with only single ideas in each

2) create a thread that will hopefully get a large amount of members that will come here to post their ideas and see what their fellow community members have come up with this will ensure that when you submit an idea that there will be someone to review your post and enough positive feed back makes it more likely that the developers will try to find a way to implement at least elements of your idea into the game

3) to give developers a place to look for ideas of their community and to see if other members think the ideas are good or not ( again this will only work if this thread builds up a big group of regular posters so keep those ideas and suggestions coming)

4) making sure that our ideas are heard while I am sure the developers do their best to read and consider all of our ideas putting them in one centralized place will make it much easier on them

5) make a place for users to submit and discuss their ideas in a safe and respectful manner

all right i was going to put this in the first post but it was a little lengthy so I decided to put it here what do you guys think of a unit with the ability to make changes to the terrain such as adding hills or creating valleys now seeing as how this unit has no attack this would obviously be strictly be a support unit but what do you guys think of this unit or is something like this even a practical idea let me know ( and remember this thread is to make us heard so keep those posts coming

alright i have had a few new ideas the first is less of a unit and more of a weapon what do you guys think of a gun that shoots explosives that go under ground and pop up and explode damaging enemies ( possibly even having it controlled by the user for maximum damage) now I thought of a few ideas for this application it could possibly be used as a way for camouflaged units to attack without giving away their location (for balance purposes in this situation it may be necessary to have the explosive create a faint trail as it travels underground) or possibly have a long range version as a stealthier version of an artillery turret

my next idea is a vehicle with deploy-able storm generator now this would decrease visibility and mess with electrical components trapping the enemies within the storms range long I feel that this would work best with allied artillery while it would decrease enemy vision it would make a nice target for artillery also if it did not effect allied troops it could give allies in a hopeless fight the chance they need to escape

so those are my ideas let me know what you guys think of either one of them or how else you would use them if at all

The Viking, officially designated as the A2 Armored Mechanical Hybrid,[1] is a terran unit with the ability to transform between a ground unit ("Assault mode") and an air unit ("Fighter mode").

yeah a ground /air unit sounds awesome having an enemy prepare for an anti air defense only to be met by a barrage of ground units would definitely add a whole new layer of strategy would definitely love to see a multiple terrain unit awesome suggestion

another idea kinda small and not very original but something to think about I think it would be cool to add some type of unit or ability that allows the players to shoot through shields and directly into health

another idea thought it might be cool to have something that could decrease the enemy's rate of fire maybe even in a turret so you can place them in front of your base and make them less effective at attacking your base and easier to destroy or maybe as an ability for a support unit

As of right now it is implemented as one of the commanders abilities... I hope it also would be used on some of the special units as well.

My favorite ability would be to slow enemy down, just spread his army a little bit and flank them when he is least expecting it.

I like the idea of having a troop option like your first idea but in stead of altering the ground why not have it build structures like cement walls for cover. Also have it remove structures so if your trying to get somewhere just have it destroy the building in your way
