techmarines would wield all the 'neat stuff' they hoard from shards of STC blueprints, but also AOE pray to the machine spirit to heal vehicles spawning as tech marine or librarian would mean you can't spawn as veteran
why should the blessing of the omnissiah be AOE? just asking or maybe you could choose if you wanted a weak aoe or a strong close-range single heal based on equipment?
Dat'd be a gud idea, but difficult ta' implement. I'd imagine given we gotz 4 factions and limited characta' slots. If'n ye only have an LSM dread, and no uvva' LSM unit dis idea falls apart [at least wifin da purview o' me idea ta' remove da class/loadout fing wit' characta's wut merely exchange gear, wuuld probably werk ratha' well wut wit' th' current loadout/class system if'n dey introduced dread wifin dat] since ye'd be thrust inta' a LSM game wit' no uvva' LSM characta' den da dread ye were jus denied. Tis why it seems loik it'd be best if'n a prematchmakin' fing did it, at least ta' me Loik, it searches fer games wen ye queue as a Dread. Say yer LSM and dis uvva' bloke be an Ork. One a dreadnought and da uvva' a deff dread, both lookin' fer a game. If'n dere be a match eitha' startin' er in progress dat be LSM vs. Orks wut haz room fer 'em on each side, dey get plopped in. Uvva'wise dey continue waitin'. Ye'd wanna add 'em 1 fer 1. Don't want one team ta' 'ave a dread and da uvva' ta' not if'n ye can help it
I fink a channeled pray wit' all dem fancy incense and wut 'ave ye wuuld be betta', wun vehicle/machine at a toim. Ye can get intarrupted by bein' hit and such so ye can't jus' uze it ind a middle o' a fire foight wit'out worry Loik, ye can walk while ye do it, but dat be it. Ye gotta stop prayin' ta' uze yer weapons Mayhaps do dat fer da uvva' techmarine heal ideas az well. Pray and heal vehicles and machines in an AOE, but ye can't attack and wut not while doin' az such, and it'd be less den a focused pray on a single vehicle/machine
yeah, i understood what you meant, but i think the issue with limited low level characters would still stand. it is not to many games being played at the same time at this moment so it would be hard to get in a game as a dread. i mean come on, who would not want to be a drednought or deffdread? XD
Da novelty wuuld wear off eventually I assume. Fink 'bout it fer a little bit. Do ye wanna be da dreadnought? Er do ye wanna be dat roight bad nob wut takes wun down despite not bein' a deff dread demselves? Take dat bastard down a peg! Ye get victory on multiple levels. Ye get moar EXP, since it wuz a Dreadnought, and ye managed ta' kill a dreadnought wut shuuld've roight dun ye in. Dependin' on how fast, efficiently, and wit' wut numba's alongside ya cuuld make da victory all da betta'! EDIT: Blokes luv foightin' bosses. Da dreadnoughts would be like mini raid bosses on da battlefield. Sure, sum blokes wanna be da raid boss, but how many moar wanna foight da raid boss? how many wuuld luv ta' coordinate wit' dere hearties in takin' wun down? Da dreadnought, by its mere existence on da battlefield, becomes an objective in and uv itself
we would have to hope so . but a dread would of course have to have vehicle armor so most infantry weapons would not be able to hurt them. except perhaps grenades should be able to pack some heat against them. and melta and plasma of course. at least plasma cannons
Uv course. Not evaryone cuuld take it out, dat be part uv da fun! Ye can't do evaryfing all at once. Ye'd get dem dedicated dreadnought hunta's wut probably also work well az generic anti-vehicle. If'n ye were able ta' turn da corna' and always take down wut comes yer way dere'd be no suspense, no sense o' fear. Wut kinda fun wuuld a war loik dat be?
I agree i also think dreads should be unable to go inside all the buildings. How would you be able to use shoulder mounted weapons and such? Any ideas? Like a LSM dreadnought with powerfist and bolter on one hand and assault cannon on the other?
Definitely too big ta' inside most buildin's I'd fink, at least most o' da wuns wut currently be in da game. Larga' more open structures cuuld exist Me idea wuuld be dat each toyp o' rank (basic/vet/elite/'eavy/dread) wuuld 'ave dere own equipment. Sum, such as basics, vets, and elites, moight share sum equipment. Uvva's loik a weirdboy er a librarian wuuld 'ave dere own unique equipment. Dreads wuuld be no diffarant. Ye cuuld 'ave a dreadnought wut haz both arms az 'eavy bolta's, one flama' and a 'eavy bolta', two powa' fists, one powa' fist wif a flama', etc. Stuff loik dat. 'Eavy weapons cuuld replace dere arm/fist (wun side jus' be da 'eavy weapon) while lighta' weapons cuuld be added ta' a dere arm/fists (such as a flama')
