    just a small question, how will vision work on small planets? at some pont the horizon is closer than the visibility of the unit. if the horizon is going to be a problem, would tall units se further than a low one?

    I think the planet would have to be miniscule for this to be an issue.

    I'd put money on the fact it'll be a simple case of set vision radii per unit, same goes for weapon range (even lasers), and true line of sight won't get a look in (pardon the pun).

    The more realistic approach would introduce another variable, thereby reduce the effectiveness of important balance levers, for no real gameplay gain.
