Rnegades are bad on the mediums regarding mobility yes. They do have Kami and Vector that are _very_ important.

And I really like Driller. If the Driller is at the center of the action, it’s very powerful. The problem is to put it there.

I think that spiders are ok, if we nerf spiders the Bugs will be on a great disadvantage, because they don’t have many tactical units (like Vector, Eagle, etc)

Hey I agree with the renegade issue, it’s true we don’t have a “normal” medium unit, so we need to adapt
Spiders are great units, but eagles and vectors can prove even better, you just need lights to “abuse” catapult. I think one or more units need some tweaks but I think that will happen with the game evolution. Drillers are good support units but after one attack they’re always open whereas other medium units have range =)

Non the less great tournament by AD420 he’s really a consistent player and he beat me in regicide, damn it! xD

Cheers

I’m not pointing the nerf because of tournaments, if you check the middle units of the Renegades you can easily see that they don’t have a “fast” good unit… even the Utopians have a unit with 2 movements (with no restrictions) and 3 range (this unit doesn’t even require a special resource to build).

You can say that the Renegades have the Kamikaze, but spending rare resources to build a unit that as the name says is going to be “destroyed” is kinda pointless…

So I really think that the Renegades require a better Middle unit…

I don’t see why would need to be nerfed. They are a very good units, but seeing as Levys don’t have ANY catapult or rebound, they need strong units. They do have one Bomb unit, but it is very limited due to attack and movement.
In tournament both players start with the same amount so it really doesn’t matter how strong or weak a units is, it is even.

Yea, grats!

I must say that the last battle, made me realize that “Spiders” should be nerfed.

Movement cost: 2 (with no direction limitations).
Attack range: 3
Abilities: Counter Strike and Stickness

That’s to much for a middle ship.

On a side note, at least the stickness should be applied after the target unit used their special abilities (counter-strike).
Since, what’s the point of having units with a ability on attack to disable special abilities, if the stickness can do the same with the advantage of also making it target inoperative for the next turn.
