4th General For Each Faction, Have anyone thought about it ? Options

[Nemanja]

I don't want anyone to get me wrong,I just started this for fun,
I mean cmon guys spit out your Generals and their branches.
Name
Faction
Branch
Tactics

Also,have you,devs,thought sometimes about it,and are there some
generals or just general,you've scrapped in favour of those that are on their way ?

If Im not mistaken there can be a set limit of Ai factions coded into sage, 15 I think cause I havent seen a mod with more too....

But for the fun stuff, dont know if this is such a spoiler or not but the set generals are from the Generals Beta, Not ZH Generals beta....Where there was Rangers in snowbikes and stuff, and campaign missions had little "Video transmisions" and briefing for missions.Of course that story had the americans and chineese fighting wich I doubt will be the case for ROTR

(I maybe wrong I dont write the lore nor does the great MARS give us spoilers)


With a ton of other planned but scraped stuff from that and ZH etc to make this mod awsome....

As for the post it self lets see...If we dont add the shockwave generals that are nonexistant then use them, If not....

The "unkneeling " General Steelarm
USA
NORAD/Nasa
Stratigic orbital strikes and intellegence,
An expensive faction with relatively no maximum range but high cooldowns unless X units are bought to reuse gen powers....Most expensive elite units in the game, but slowest veterancy along with no advanced traning

Catherina
ECA/U.N.
United nations peacekeeping forces

Diffrent varity of calling forward units from every faction with airdrops like ECA does for a set amount of cash....
Units are sent in bulk, No production buildings,

Dozers build civilian structures rather then production buildings and somewhat (Maybe some code for autoroads? Hey I can dream )
Civilian structures generate happiness or peace somewhat wich allows her to get UN airdrops randomly around her HQ for funding.As long as she gets good approval allowing her to get her airdrop power up faster....Making her unstopable without even needing to expand.If you upgrade your own made "Urban areas" then they give you free civilan structures or powers like the airport or refinary.Fun fact; Urban areas are garrisonable by infantry so if one blackhawk slips in and they attack the other neutral stuctures...
GG
Maybe rank 5 is more then 1insurection around the map or a choosen factions strike force, Supereweapon is the same.Your allowed to use every sw but they have thier own cooldowns and they reset each time anothers used
Lorewise UN and other nations can have friednly fire incidents.... The leang of ROTR

Theese are just for fun, not to be considerd like he said....

That is correct although due to the we way we are going to implement the Generals, the 15 AI limit will be the least of our problems. Technically, our Generals won't be actual factions as they were in ZH, but merely elaborate upgrades that unlock an entire tech tree in game. Theoretically, we could add more than 15 pseudo sub-factions this way, although we'd still have the unchangeable 128 upgrade limit as well as the confines of game design. This thread might be interesting as a thought experiment though.

The 128 upgrade is for each faction?there could be a lot of factions doing a sharing of some basic techs.i imagine a mod with 15 base factions with 4 generals each...that would be totally crazy( and awesome)

Also another general i think about:
Name:some polish name(don't know any,to say one poloski )
Faction:ECA
Branch:resistance to invader,asimetrical warfare
Tactics:a very different general comapare to other eca generals,poloski is one of the managers of the european resistance move.it has fast infantery and excellent ligth vehicles,but lack of heavy hitting units(no tanks)it also lack of any type of aircraft.horewer his infantery capture buildings extremely fast and it have strong(but not very resistant)defenses.barracks and other unit producers are mobile
