Sticky Acid Cloud? Oh, that would be AWESOME...
Would make archers better... But it's a lost cause...

why not Sticky Resin? or some thing like it would be a grate new weapon for the scions.
I think I will call my version: "Bio-mass cannon" the combat would be like resin[poppers that change in to anchor class on contack] and the alt fires one large anchor class bomb I even think I can get AI to use both combat and alt versions.[new unit]

Oh, I meant sticky Acid Cloud. Now THAT would be awesome. It'd be a somewhat effective way for Scions to break a service assault, if you up the range. Have the archer shoot the Cloud onto the Service Trucks...

well that just takes one or two chages to work with the same effects and every thing. I just change the flair mine in to a weapon mine and give it an anchor class ordence and make it fire 10 or so at once.
Edit-I found that the mine will not target buildings unless {VehicleSearchFilter = 4} so the revised way to do this is with a small building that has two mines for taps one with{VehicleSearchFilter = 2} and one with{VehicleSearchFilter = 4}each have the same weapon.
if you want a copy PM me and I will send you one once I am done testing it.

That would mean that on maps where your base is surrounded by giant walls, you can't really service assault Scions effectively, as they could simply have 3 archers or so hit your service trucks with an acid cloud, wrecking them all.

It would occur slowly, and should be calibrated to do the same overall damage over time, as the stock acid cloud does currently.
(short answer: You can already do that

)

Yeah, but the wingmen can blow up the acid cloud if it lies on the ground. So a sticky one would cause them to massively damage service trucks while trying to destroy the clouds.

I didn't think they could hurt themselves. I'm imagining a sabre streaming noxious green clouds behind it. This will probably inspire some nasty jokes but what if there was a special that was like acid cloud sans the mine so it spewed clouds straight from the special hardpoint. You know what, now that I think about it, it'd probably better be done as a cannon.

I think it's called Resin. But it sucks balls.
Unless you're talking about Jax.

I'm not talking about an existing weapon. It would not spew goop or little green balls, but corrosive clouds that hang in the air.

Ah. That'd be more interesting.
