Re: 1) Tempest Battleship

Well he isn't a game designer. It's very good.

 

i like it, i realy do.
finaly, a carrier with hull mounted weapons. and the design owns.
however, the laser is to like the warprays beam. and the interceptors should not be an ability,
but work as the old interceptors did. and some anti ground weapons would be nice.

good unit, but resembles the warpray to much.
mabye replacing its weapon with something else would be great, good work on the ship :thumbup:
and a owerup: for the work.

 

um i thought the entries were supposed to remain anonymous.. oh well

 

SD-Count, I just wanted to pin point the fact that you are blasting multiple topics in which people are showing their work. Constructive critisism is good but... "it's very poorly drawn". C'mon dude, it's freekin sweet lookin and how would that help him make it better?

 

First "its freaking sweet" is not a very effective counterargument but I do agree that it is good to elaborate on what he did bad and what can be improved

 

pretty well drawn - but I'm not really digging the unit itself - it seems like a super-unit... they already have Motherships - I can't see this getting in the lineup as described

 

@SD-Count, are there any drawings/images that people will make where you won't just say it's crap and sucks? You almost did the exact same thing in this other topic

Yeah, that was the other topic I was reading which is why I got kind of upset. Sorry guys for disturbing the peace

 

Very good idea! and very good sketch, very protoss!

 

whats its weakness? How are you supposed to kill a full supply of those?

 

Well, the tempest shield means less overall shields, that means it would be more vulnerable to a counter air attack. Also the fact that it has a sweeping attack means it also has a longer coldown ( say 2.5 sec ) and can only take a limited amount of targets. So against multiple smaller ships/creatures it would be verry vulnerable, and also multiple BC's can take them out. A good emp stryke, psionic storm or plague ( if it will still exist ) will also damage them verry bad. The interceptors are an abillity not a weapon. They get deployed once every 90 seconds, while the tempest cannon though it can hit 6 targets only one of them recives full damage. On a direct fight with a BC, the Tempest would be superior, but now let me ask you another question - in SC how many ways did you had to counter a large number of carriers or BC's. These are units that require alot of minerals but also makes them worth the effort.
