Bitch slapping SAGE since 2003



Hello everyone!

Today we have a small vissual update on some new graphics and designs for existing units aswell as a few (partialy) new ones:


First of is the F/B-22 with a shiney new model.
In our previous update we explained that the Drone bombers will be replacing the Generals power airstrike but the F/B-22 will remain ingame as a buildable bomber.
This new F/B-22 will be replacing the aurora bomber for General Townes and drops a laser guided bomb that can be upgraded to become a bunker buster.


Next is our Tornado Bomber which will be replacing the B-1 Lancer and otherwise function entirely the same.
The wings on this plane will fold out when taking off in the same manner as the B-1 Lancer in 1.0 allready does.


And last but not least is our newly designed Laser Stealth Fighter.
Unlike what the name suggested the stealth fighter does not use laser weapons but is instead armed with 2 fully rotatable autocannons that deploy from the sides when it is ordered to attack.

That's it for today stay tuned for more updates coming very soon!

All I can say is, once you see it ingame, it'll all make sense 8I.gif

I guess I'll just wait and see then mindfuck.gif.

Though I hope it's something more creative then "Laser-Guided Bullets".

Why autocannons and not lasers? Having pin-point lasers would mean that shots would not miss, but an autogun would spend too much ammunition. I thought Townes was all about combat efficiency mellow.gif. Even rockets are laser-guided, bullets just seem a little unorthodox for him.

Because not everything needs to be a friggin laser.

cant stop loving you guys!
iv been a fan of Shockwave since over a year... CnC Generals : Zero Hour was my favorite game, and you guys just bettered it with this amazing mod... after playing .95 for over a year i was desperately waiting for 1.0, feeling sad all the while that there would be no more. but then this happened!
i know im not a regular here, on the forum that is, but thats coz i dont have a permanent net connection, yet...
thank you SWR team for modding the best strategy game ever! mindfuck.gif

Yes it does, anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool! screwyou.gif

But seriously, it doesn't have to be a laser. You do have a point, Townes has too many lasers. That's why we invented things like Rail-Drivers, Gauss and Coil weapons. Having some other somewhat creative thing other then "it dun shot boolets" would make Townes appear more enticing.
