So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)

TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO COLONY (and beef burgers)

medics should upgrade with the hospital upgrade and be able to heal air targets


I have another idea. How about there's this "drone" type unit that is built from the war sanctum and will "latch" on to the ship that needs to be repaired (it will be targeted instead of the unit in clashes). So then it wouldn't be rigged because sakata's will kill the drone while attacking the phantoms. It would be a nice unit to have but you have to be very careful to it. Also the name of the unit would change when the "drone" "latches" onto the unit. (EX: Blackqueen (Repairing)).

As long as it doesn't stack, it's fine.

*Imagines 20 drones waiting in line to attach to a random unit and make it practically invincible*

Actually that happens even WITHOUT stacking, as long as the unit is damaged...D:

It still gets the damage done to it though, what if damage done is split say...75% to the drone, it can't stack or heal other drones or itself, and 25% to the unit? And splash does normal damage?

Well, i meant to say, it can't heal units of it's same kind. So it would only heal the targeted unit and not any other unit. So it would get picked off 1 by 1. And also

I have another idea. How about there's this "drone" type unit that is built from the war sanctum and will "latch" on to the ship that needs to be repaired (it will be targeted instead of the unit in clashes).

So no, it would not be overpowered, because the drones will be destroyed if ever sent into battle against other units. Also the drone can be detatched from the unit from any given time.

Not the drone, but because the unit takes no damage and the DRONE gets killed...

You could pretty much become invincible because your drones will be picked off 1 by 1...while your air unit blasts away.

And wait, only 1 drone per unit?

yeah i like the idea. maybe 1 drone per 5 units, and its slighly slower in healing than the medic. or the medic i thougt about was a influence or 3x as expensive

Ehhhh. Not one drone per unit. You can have as many drones as you want. And ever think about sakatas??? They'd blow up the drones and the unit to smitherines.
I had never thought about them as a meatshield.... And they won't because when the unit has full life, it'll detach automatically.

Ah, so splash does take into account.

It will work against smaller #'s of units though, like, sakata shoots, repair, sakata shoots, dead drone(s), let it shoot the unit again, repair again...repeat.

Pro player, micros the drones. Attach to blackqueen between reload rates and detach between attack rates.

Fill me in on what's happening...

Air-repair drones, latch on to targets (not other drones) and repair them. They take damage instead of the unit, but splash damage is calculated normally.

yeah I brought up an idea about when you upgrade the hospital to war thingy, the medics can heal air units too. Jerryrpg came up with making drones that latch on to units and heal them fully. He can fill u in on that better.

I think the ty for ur comment thing needs to only last for 15 sec

Yeah, and base heal would be sweet too (influence med)
And drones...? Hmm, interesting idea.
Could be suicide bomber too.
