Shotgun trooper or Elite cadre?

Well, i dont want to use both but i like the idea of a shotgun trooper as its an original idea not used in many mods(i think). But ill let you guys chose.

Elite cadre - Machinegun and C4

Shotgun trooper - Shotgun and C4

Both, have Shotgunner as an early Tier 1 unit.

Elite Cadre can come on later after Radar, and are harder to kill.

replace nods light infantry with shotgun guy, it could give them an advantage over crappy GDI inf.

i could do it so that the noddies have shotguns that are stronger but they take more time to reload (ROF) and the gdi's have weaker guns but they are machineguns that can fire rapidly.

The elite cadre replaces the cyborg for NOD? If so, I don't think they need a C4.

Thats not what i had in mind but i like that idea! Though, he would still have c4 beacuse he is weaker then a cyborg so he needs something to componsate for that

I don't recommend having them anything close to the price range of the Cyborg then. Imagine a C4 Cadre rush.. -_-

I say, screw the Elite Cadre, replace the cyborg with shotgun trooper, give the shotie trooper a slower reload time and heavier armor then the light inf. Give it an almost instantkill to the light inf, say 2 squares left. That'll basicly even it out Very Happy

lol, unless of course you have a giant horde of a million shotties blowing away the units lol.

You could always try and create a bigger contrast between the two units and use both. One instead of cyborg and one instead of light infantry maybe?

Maybe you could replace the disc thrower with the elite cadre, but have it have a disc with a pistol or a weak machinegun, while the shottie trooper does more damage to tanks as well.

GP carnivean! iam thinking maybe... copy pasting a backpack onto one of them. Or have you got some better idea?

lol, never mind, I say you just forget about the elite cadre and replace the cyborg with the shottie trooper.

Nonono, replace the Cyborg with the Cadre, that was it's original intention before CABAL took over the Cyborgs. A minor health increase or something would make up for it's loss of the "get up when dying" ability which the 'Borg had.

Add a Shotgun trooper as a anti infantry version of a disc thrower, but shorter range but does crap against vehicles. Have Rocket infantry long range, good against vehicles but bad against infantry. Disc Thrower to balance it out would have it's Disc Thrower 50/50 good against infantry and vehicles.

Yeah! A person who has the same view as me. Use the Elite Cadre, there are other ways to compensate for the lower health and squishablility.
