  • Choppers in the next ACDG

    This thread is a companion poll to the poll about modifications to the next ACDG.

    Assuming that CMN changes only are to be used in the next ACDG, there is a proposal to prevent choppers being the uber-weapon. As Googlie thus stated:
    Add a self-imposed rule that choppers can never attack bases, only units in the open, and we've solved the chopper problem as well as forced teams to think "outside the box" on new military strategies


    As with the previous poll, you must state what you voted for in this thread for your vote to be counted. Only posted votes count. The poll is included a quick indication of the current status of this poll. If the "CMN changes only" option does not win in the poll linked to above, this poll is void.

    The options are:
  • Allow all chopper attacks: Choppers can attack bases as well as units in the open.
  • No base attacks: Coppers can not attack units in a base.
  • Xenodoughnuts: The obligatory banana option.

    Happy voting!

    I vote for the no-base attack option. This way new tactics may be used rather than just rushing to choppers and building only them and some drop units.

      No base attacks sounds good. It limits the choppers power, whilst keeping them useful as a unit. It also requires no extra fiddling on anyones part.

        I voted allow all attacks, but if this is the only way to stop the modders complaing, let's do it.

          Xenodoughnuts are not the same as xenobananas, meaning that there is no obligatory xenobanana option.

            That would be a vote for xeno then?

                I hate to make this poll more complicated but I have to ask:
                Does this poll assume or not assume that only SAM choppers will be allowed before Fusion Power is researched?
                If only SAM choppers would be allowed pre-Fusion, I'd vote for "All attacks allowed".
                If the proposal about SAM choppers is not accepted, I'd vote for "No base attacks allowed."

                  That proposal came after this poll, so I guess voting how you did works fine.

                    I'm voting with my faction leader in this case.

                      Is this another faulty poll

                          No base attacks (under the presumption that the early choppers are tactical).

                            I vote:

                            1) No base attacks with any reactor

                            2) Choppers either SAM or conventional - with any reactor - can always attack units in the open (SAM incurs the 50% penalty, of course)

                              I'm with Maniac on this one:
                              If only SAM choppers would be allowed pre-Fusion, I'd vote for "All attacks allowed".
                              If the proposal about SAM choppers is not accepted, I'd vote for "No base attacks allowed."
