Once again, Its Allie :t
This may be my best idea yet, im sure some others have come up with the same idea, so I credit you all as well :D
Today's topic, Field Artillery.
Im not talking the little anti tanks and 88's we have. Im talking some really DEVASTATING guns. (if used properly)
Basically, just like fields have ack guns, we could have a couple field howitzers as a "gun ship or field" category gun.
They would be set further back, maybe even off the field by a bit, maybe on a nearby hill or mountain.
How it works...
You would deploy into the gun. You would have the same interface as you would like an 88. You could increase and decrease the range and such. OR. you can implement the naval guns system. By pointing and clicking, you would get a general area of where your shell will hit.
Basically, think of putting a single 8" off the cruiser, and onto the field.
They could have a range of about 1 sector, maybe even 2 if you have some really big guns.
They WONT be super op, ive heard a lot of people say they would be. Why? Accuracy.
The one major flaw of ANY artillery is accuracy of course. The farther away your target, the harder its gonna be to hit it. These guns would probally only be used to assault a nearby field or maybe even some slow tanks. Since they're howitzers, it only makes sense that the shells would do splash damage, just like bombs do, so you dont have to hit what your aiming at directly, only really close.
If you have any suggestions, please leave them. Thanks...
