Let’s make it smaller and put it into a backpack. We equip our soldiers with it and call them Chrono Legionnaires. They will be the most OP bull-fucking-shit units in the history of anything.
Yes, I’m still salty for getting swarmed by them that one time in multiplayer. Fuck you, whoever came up with this.
Even better if you put them in IFVs - extra armor, faster movement and I think longer weapon range, and when the IFV eventually gets destroyed you still have a Chrono Legionnaire.
Yeah but you have to sneak them in close to the enemy base, otherwise they take their sweet-ass time rematerializing, and all 37 of them that you had spent several minutes of clicking to plan out who will attack what building get slaughtered without a single one firing their weapon.
And if you miss all the “poof… Pooof… Poof…” right next to your base… You deserve it. Send a bunch of grunts or dogs in wherever they gather and they’ll all be dead long before you need to worry.
I legitimately don’t like those units because they’re so weak and specialized, I never really get a chance to utilize them right
This is 100% true. But I was a child. Those were my first steps into online gaming. Yes, I am aware it’s been over 20 years and I refuse to let go of the past.
My first foray into any gaming was Alpha Centauri. Had no idea what to do and my dad is shit at explaining anything. To this day I cannot stand the series or even turn-based strategy games.
I think my first online experience was Left for Dead, and a teammate startled a witch within 30 seconds of starting the very first level. Instant hatred of witches and actively tried to dissuade people from messing with them.
Nowadays I toss a pipe bomb ahead of myself while pumping away with my shotgun and half the time I down them before they can stand up fully. Mostly so I can traumatize my friends who are still on the hate train.
Slightly related, I found out that unless you check the “limit superweapons” box in Generals, your opponent will likely just spam a shitload of superweapons, so it won’t matter that they suck at strategy, because they can just wait 5 minutes, click 20 times and have your entire base leveled.
