You stole my idea! (I wasn't going to replace the Ion Cannon though)
I don't think you should anyway, since the lightning storm sw doesn't fit in your story line. Where would they get that technology? The lightning storm as a sw would only fit the mutants or the scrin IMO. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
and what shall i do with the ion cannon??
isnt that futuristic technology too??
and BTW, i try to make it a bit like RA2...
the RA2 nuke and all RA2 anims are already included! _________________ leader of the World War III TC for TS
Personally for your mod I think the ION storm should go but you can make some creative explosions and debris to fit,maybe a SCUD storm type weapon? _________________ QUICK_EDIT

I think that Ion Cannon can stay.
BTW Am I wrong or Ion Cannon, Particle Cannon and Plasma Cannon are the same thing? _________________ Eradicate. QUICK_EDIT
Hmm.... WAKE UP MAN!!!!!!!!!!! THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS ION/PARTICLE CANNON. The plasma cannon.......some say that it exists, others say that it's still on the blue prints. IONs are atoms that gave/recieved 1,2 or 3 electrons. Particles are extremely small objects that are invisibile to the naked eye. Plasma can be found in 2 places: in blood and in nature. I don't know much about the plasma (from the nature I mean).
PLS replace the word "live" with "life". QUICK_EDIT

Plasma is Ionized gas, so I thought that Plasma Cannon and Ion Cannon are the same thing, but I may be wrong... _________________ Eradicate. QUICK_EDIT

Plasma's just gas. (Well not JUST gas, but U know what I mean. And if U don't... What ever.)But the Ion cannon is VERY similar to the Particle cannon... _________________ Destroy to create. All for the hunt to dominate!
Make it an Ion Cannon Bombardment system wherein multiple Ion Cannon satellites move into position over the target and let loose multiple random ion beams doing crazy amounts of damage. Then give some hero unit, like Havoc, the ability to call in Ion Strikes individually, alter the C4 warhead and change the C4 Icon (Though this does not work if you intend on giving actual C4 to some other side.). This will allow you to keep the Ion Cannon whilst creating a devastating weapon to match the almighty nuke.
Ion Cannons use alternating ions, like magnets, to create a superfast moving particle. Particle Cannons just spin a particle and then release it via Particle accelerator. Plasma Cannons use Magnetic fields to propel superheated plasma, like that in lightning and the sun, at a target. Ion and Particle Cannons are very similar but use to different means of propulsion whereas plasma cannons work like flamethrowers just with magnets instead of nozzles.

I think the only way to make a multiple Ion Cannon strike like that is to play with the animations of the Cluster Missile clusters. If they can all use the Ion beam anim, then it'll work fine. _________________

lightnings coz a multiple IonCannon doesnt fit in year 2045...
and it works with invisible debris.
the first lightning spawns 5 debris, each debri spawns a second lighthinig, the second one spawns 2 debris... and so on _________________ leader of the World War III TC for TS
It would be good to have a seismic blast generator using the hunterseeker logic.Make the weapon it uses do an invisible explosion and lots of invisible debris damage and make the warhead only affect buildings,that way it should always hit a building and make the hunter seeker invisible. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
hmmmm then it would still be effective or just give most critical buildings concreate armor and make it affect only them but if there are no units on the map with concrete armor the game may crash _________________ QUICK_EDIT
as i said above, the lightning storm is just an expansion of the ioncannon.
it has the same effect as the ioncannon, just after impac there would be some lightnings. _________________ leader of the World War III TC for TS
