Ok, I was thinking about some new tech for PanO and here is some ideals I came up with. 1) A hacking program that only PanO will get, It's called Sudden death! what it does is it cancels any enemy figure that is in the impersonation state that is in the panO deployment zone only. 2) nanotech that is called Pill box, It will act like the Tohaa mates but this will be a one time nano shield that will cancel all hits that are not critical hits. Only PanO HI's can use this tech and only one in your list. 3) Nanotech bullets that can be fired from a sniper rifle that set enemy figures on fire, I call this one gravestone ammo, it will cause 15 points of fire damage. will this is some of my new tech ideals for PanO, whats yours and what do you think of my Ideals, Is to OP?
Drop bears are already a great new weapon for Pano. If only Akalis had drop bears. I want Drop bears on more of our units.
Getting Mine Dispensers would actually be nice. New Auxbot types are obvious, and had their own thread. A device that allows to use a single hacking program without making user a hacker. Airburst ammo; ignores cover bonus to ARM. Tracking ammo; non-lethal option for Multi weapons, puts target into Targeted state. Targeting Relay; deployed like a Pitcher, has its own WIP 12, can run Spotlight as ARO or Entire Order. Remotes that can use Mechanical Transmutation to turn into immobile defense turrets (with weapons like Spitfire, Feuerbach, Multi Rifle+Panzerfaust...) Autorepair; like Regeneration or Automedikit, but on units with STR. Mobile Shield; Remote that can provide cover for friendly models in BtB.
Not you specifically. It's fine to ask questions but we have seven other threads on the front page where we talk and gripe at each other about shit we wish or think we should have. The main reason we should stop is because CB keeps taking our ideas and giving them to other factions.
We can dream can't we? Let those of us with creative imaginations get the juices flowing. @andre61 @Stiopa @Death Those are some creative ideas. I think added more Drop Bears, Auxbots & Mine Dispensers would be nice on some units. Maybe have the Mine Dispenser throw Drop Bears, Anti or Mono mines on different weapon loadouts? Or combine all three and give it to an Auxbot to create a BS 10 mine chucking machine. Will the little guy hit it's target or send the explosive off course due to a bad roll? Could be a fun aspect to the gameplay.
I think CB would be more open to giving the Auxbot the weapon over a unit because of the lower BS. PanO could have some nice tool with the downside of the machine handling the ammo. Otherwise the naturally high BS of PanO units could make other player bases cry foul since PanO would suddenly have a massive advantage lobbing smoke, mines, etc.
Druze has a TAG with an Engineer in Duo, Starco has an x-visor LGL in a full link with WIP 14 FOs and hacking device+, Kriza brings his own 1 man Haris and an uncounterable mimetism. I think there's enough powercreep around, so maybe we don't need our stuff on a shitty BS10 platform.
@Zsolt Good point. We should be able to but with CB you never know what or why they choose to make things what they are.
I think Scarface and the Kriza would probably be happy to switch out units with PanO. I think only Starco would hesitate here. Much of the complaints I see are about PanO only being a shooting faction. So maybe fixes should not make PanO more deadly in a gun fight? I think things like the Techbee are probably along the right direction. Not a gunfighter (the fact she is still a ok ARO unit is annoying) however she is flavorful as tech support improving your already solid engineers up by 5%.
Even with BS10 a Suppression Fire capable weapon on an AuxBot would be a nice option, allowing mutual cover. I'd love to see a SMG armed AuxBot for that reason.
Maybe write these so they look like Infinity rules? "cancels any enemy figure", "set enemy figures on fire" ... 1) the problem with this it's just a hard counter to like 2 troops in the game (KHD hackers may not end up in your DZ, just around your closest repeater), it's not really fun to just kill that Fiday or Speculo by totally ignoring the game rules. 2) erm. that seems way OP. Put it on Swiss everytime, all the time. Or Joan. But I'd rather put it on my Jotum. And I want it to duo with machinist. And if we are there already, just put it in a full 5 man core, with a Machinist or two of course. You can put Tohaa pokemon on 2 wound Fusiliers and Kamaus (and a Gorgos, but nobody loves him), Pano has way more firepower than that (ofc BS13, Mimetism, B5 HMG is quite a lot of firepower). 3) Does this mean fire ammo for sniper rifles? We don't have sniper rifles, only MULTI sniper rifles. So you want Fire sniper rifles? Or just add Fire ammo to the MULTI sniper rifles options? I'm confused.
1. Sounds like sensor but for impersonate, Biomnetric visors already exist and a "deep" scan of someone is more Yu-Jing's bag than PanO's. 2. Tohaa-mon are already broken, literally the only thing in the entire game that has completely overshot the mark with regards to power/cost/impact. I'm not sure giving it to PanO is necessarily a good idea. 3. Forget fire, but a Breaker Sniper rifle sounds cool and fits PanO's modus operandi IMO. I still want my Limited CH:TO (on a TAG with a HSG and FA2).
Yeah, Kaeltars are just all around perfect, no bloat troops. They are dirt cheap. You pay 21 pts and 0.5SWC to get access to one of the best mechanics of the game, and for that you get a lot else. It has triad, so you can use it to fill up links. But it comes with Chain of command (just look at Pano's CoC and cry), so it keeps you out of LoL, and is also a specialist, has a light shotgun, and shotguns are kinda rare on triad troops (or you'd just choose a different loadout like Makaul and Gao-Rael), so you have a filler that's actually useful and helps you round out your triad. Oh and it comes with a flash pulse, so you can use that WIP 14 for something other than pushing buttons.
I still think we should get Nanotech weapons. Not Breaker, but BTS attacking versions of the typical options.
it don't cancel the enemy figure, just it's state that it's in. It's ammo you can pick for your mult sniper rifles.
