About
A light but powerful marine craft. They carry short range missile weapons and are capable of securing properties such as ports or coastal cities.
Harbors are fine. HQs would be fine because the map wouldn’t have too many of them. But Gunboat City traversing absolutely bugs me.
It’s to give a reason to go for a naval force in the first place….the use of the navy begins and ends at the shoreline, unlike the other two unit classes.
I can’t wait for this hack to be ready, it looks really epic. I love the idea of this unit, it looks like it’ll really make things interesting.
This gave me an idea. If DoR get a sequel gunboats and landers should be able to use material to deploy foot soldiers.
I agree which Xenesis, it’ll encourage people to use their navy much more. Or it’ll just encourage people to gunboat spam 😛
