If there was a 9th ship in SS...

i like Aim2kill's idea. self-destruct option would be sweet, especially with cramming spiders. id take the damn thing and sit at roof, waiting for speeding lts, exploding myself in their face.

Umm.. And whats the point of that? U need to have full energy to attach so it would kind of replace the terr.
A healing unit would be cool though, just don't know how to do that. Never played that infantry game, took to long to d/l, but if you said it has a medic, could you please explain how it is done in that game?

You could attach to the Medic terr A.K.A blue terr with no energy/low energy so it recharges you right when u attach to it.. But it would be better with a medic ship like in Starcraft with the medics .. that would fucken own. fuck my idea haha the a medic like in starcraft would be better.

And said above^ about a suicidal ship would also be cool.

Ok you guys have complained about spiders, levis, weasels and lancasters... That just leaves us with 4 non-lame ships for pure pubbing... kinda sucks if u ask me...

But anyway, that nightwasp idea (the one with bricks and invisible mine) is pretty good actually. The self destruct one would be like a levi though... except much easier. unless it would have a small blast radius. The shield ship is good too. But the healing ship is not really possible in the current continuum version... Unless u put up a bot or something

[NaiLed]

Nothing wrong with spiders

[za gophar]

hasnt it occured to anyone that self destruct would be extremely lame? and btw the only people who think pub spiders are lame are the ones who dont know how to fight them. the ones who always charge right at the spider, fire, and expect not to die.

Thats just fucking stupid. the nightwasp is an alternate graphic, and it has no roll, so it blows. 2nd, im sick an tired of u queer lame spiders. spiders take no skill period. at all. they morons with a machine gun. basing spider are different. but if its a spider just ahnging around entrance being a verboss jackass, that just pisses me and 90% of the rest of the population off. plz. laming spiders? get a fucking hobby

Ever try basing against one? If it takes no skill, why are they used predominately in TWLB?

Oh wait, you probably don't even care about the flag. Silly me.

[Machine of God]

a ship that has very weak holming shots would be cool. You dont need much skill or anything, but it would still be fun.

[ÆNIMA]

Cramming essentially takes no skill, the easier a strategy, and the more effective...the better.

Whether something takes skill or not, or whether something has significance in a match are two seperate things.


A levi takes no skill, but it could be very useful in breaking a skill-less cram.

[Machine of God]

i just thought of a cool ship to bust a cram

a morphing ship, that can launch a very slow emptying bomb that cannot be repped. Just launch a bomb into the cram and hurt them all. Then once it does that it can change into a spider-type ship or something for regular basing.

[Material Girl]

LOL GOOD IDEA

[Bioture]

The medic ship idea could be implemented as such: The ship would attach to another ship (say, a terr) and then give that terr an extra # of energy pts (say, +1000) as long as the ship stays attached. Should also give this medic a gun and some repels or somethin.

[pharm]

there already is a 9th ship, and it is the most popular ship of all... spectator mode.

[Mennoowh]

What about a selfdestructable medic

no, the selfdestruct thing sucks, because that way you can never get a higher bounty, neither can a imaginable medic ship. But the idea RR said before, especially about the bricks. I like bricks and i hate it that there are never any of them in the pubs
But if there would be bricks in the pub then they would have to be less tall, just 4, 5, 6 pieces would be enough

btw invisible mines are megalame and highly annoying

[Jonas]

This is probably a bit off topic, but, there are 8 ships, and they can't even balance these, so instead of thinking of new cool ships, why not instead try to change/improve/gerbil/balance/whatever, the ones we already have.

4 or five tiles long is way too much. You only need three to completey block the entrance for a while. The only way a block could be used in TW is making it 1/2 tiles wide and set them to last 3/4 seconds. And make it ungreenable and only for terrs or 2seconds and only for sharks. Or this could be a way to make the lanc useful.
