[Suggestion] Replace T1/T2 combat fabbers with T1/T2 aa bots

Having 2 tiers of combat fabbers seems really pointless to me, especially since you'll probably only ever build one unless they become radically different (which it doesn't seem will be the case atm). My suggestion is to add back the T1 aa bot, removing the dox's aa ability, and also removing the T1 combat fabber. Either that, OR removing the T2 combat fabber and giving us a flak bot or something, in which case we wouldn't necessarily need to remove dox aa, that would be pretty cool too. Anyway, just some thoughts. What do you guys think?

T1 should have multiple low power lathes that heal separate units, and t2 should have one strong lathe.

I've been saying that for a while.

wouldn't you generally want the T1 over the T2 then?

Isn't that the point? Niche.

Well why would I ever build T2 combat fabbers then?

You said most generally, the point to build them it to help heal commanders, vanguards, buildings possibly, etc...

I guess? I think I'd prefer just a generic combat fabber in one tier and an AA bot in the other, personally.

I'd like an aa bot either way.

Get rid of T2 combat fabbers, T2 flak bots with very low damage but huge splash. Not much better than spinners against single targets and much more expensive, but quicker and better at chewing through large groups.

Sounds good to me.

I'm in favour of the second option as well, I never build t2 com fabs, and lots of t1.

though I only play anti-popcorn anymore so that distorts builds a bit

Or we could have an T-2 w/ less buildpower (same of an normal fabber), but w/ Anti-missiles guns

Community Uberbalance. NavalRedux. You could take either one of those mods and delete everything but the combat fabber and then rename the mod (regular price combat fabs).

You wouldn't regret playing one of those mods though.

Im more in favor of just simply adding more units, not replacing or getting rid of units.

I am too, but if you look at each factory you have slots of 5 basic units and 5 advanced per factory, yes you can get 5 more than that, but why would you hurt my OCD like that?

Well you could make it so that advanced factorys can't build the basic unit types, so that would be an extra 5 slots per factory!

Yeah, I kind of liked it when it was like that...

i am against having to many aa options for bots .. i do agree though t2 combatfab seems a bit pointless ...
rather have the combatfab only in one tier.. as for bot aa .. personaly i still like to stick with the dox and have aa vehicles

In my opinion, dox as AA is really bad in small-medium numbers, and then you reach a critical mass of ****-you air. Kind of annoying IMO.

that is why you have aa missile and flak vehicles

We don't have a flak vehicle...

flak tower sry ...
