Recently, I just wondered about improvement of aircrafts in RotR and GLA. RotR aircrafts are much improved. What would GLA get to supplement their lack of aerial units? Is GLA going to be given an aircraft? Though GLA would not be in the mod until 2.0, has anyone thinking about this? Just wondering.

A sort of vanila GLA ( just as the current factions, until the 2.0 generals are released ) will be available with a release after 1.5 . The team said it already alot of times. There will be a post 1.5 release and pre 2.0 wich will include a GLA and ECA faction along with the current 3. As for the aircraft part, i'm not in the team, but i also think this has been askt in the past and it recived the same old answer - the team is taking care of all the details and you'll just have to wait and see .

The_Hunter often mentioned, that the GLA will NOT gain any aircraft (except those for Generals powers). The GLA and ECA will be in ROTR the NEXT version after 1.5, BEFORE 2.0. The GLA will, so said The_Hunter once, gain a special AA defense structure which will be as strong as the other factions Tier 3 airpower. No information about this are official, except the fact it exists.

What I meant was that how GLA compensate for the lack of airpower. Since aircrafts have been improved a lot, I was wondering about GLA disadvantages from lack of aircraft.

Well they wont have the mobility or the convenience of close support aircraft or high speed bombers/fighters for one. What the GLA lacks in airpower will be compensated by some extremely efficient anti-air capabilities and firepower.

Quads where always the best AA units imho, and I hope there will be more AA units like these

Take into account no balance testing has been done on your current version, so aircraft may be more powerful than they will eventually be.

Sorry to Necro and old thread, but I was looking through the code files of ROTR, and came across this in the Armour section;
QUOTE Armor HeavyAntiAirArmor_SalvageOne Armor = CRUSH 50% ;tanks are extra-hard to crush Armor = JET_MISSILES 75% Armor = STEALTHJET_MISSILES 75% Armor = SMALL_ARMS 22% Armor = GATTLING 9% ;resistant to gattling tank Armor = COMANCHE_VULCAN 22% Armor = FLAME 22% Armor = RADIATION 50% ;Radiation does less damage to tanks. Armor = MICROWAVE 0% Armor = POISON 22% ;Poison does a little damage, just for balance reasons. Armor = SNIPER 0% Armor = MELEE 0% ;tanks don't generally take much damage other than paint damage from MELEE weapons Armor = LASER 100% ;lasers are anti-personel and anti-projectile only (for point defense laser) Armor = HAZARD_CLEANUP 0% ;Not harmed by cleaning weapons Armor = PARTICLE_BEAM 90% ; Armor = KILL_PILOT 90% ;Jarmen Kell uses against vehicles only. Armor = SURRENDER 0% ;Capture type weapons are effective only against infantry.

Armor = SUBDUAL_MISSILE 0% Armor = SUBDUAL_VEHICLE 100% Armor = SUBDUAL_BUILDING 0% Armor = HACK 0% ;Only for the pilot sniper weapon from jarmenkell End Salvage eh? That doesn't sound much like a structure to me, or is it used by something else me wonders. Anyhow I thought that perhaps the intrigue might be appriciated here. I certianly wonder what the GLA are going to get in reguards to their anti-air capabilities, it might appear that three other factions have SAM weapon systems, hence is the GLA going down the flak route as well??? Who knows? The Quad Cannon has to be the light AA system, that must be a given... Anyhow, Gen |

Subdual vehicle says it, it is a vehicle. Probably GLA's version of the Twinfang/Chapparel/Grumble, and so to say AA Tier 2.
Edit: That does not throw out the special Base Defense out of the equation This post has been edited by KamuiK: 30 Nov 2009, 4:00 |

There is hardly any reason it should be improved , afaik , there giving GLA a Heavy AA defense , so i guess they will get a Mid-Like Quad in replacement for the lack of AA. besides aircraft is fairly weak :/
(>< i really gotta learn to read the thread before i post) But i dont think america is that superior in Aircraft . cobras go down fairly well to gats This post has been edited by Zhao: 30 Nov 2009, 5:04 |

Gatling = AA unit, Cobra = Air unit, why should a Cobra survive a Gatling Tank?
