Guest PhantomMenace Posted November 3, 2001 Share Posted November 3, 2001 I was really disappointed by the preview. There were no new screenshots of gameplay or any closeup models of any of the units. It also looked like this guy didnt give any hands on advice. Looks like he spent about an hour and a half going through the tech tree, which we can do on our own, and just gave a review on what the numbers turned up as.

darthfergie Posted November 3, 2001 Share Posted November 3, 2001 The Gungan unique unit is the fambaa shield generator, those hulking sauropods in Episode I that carried shield generators on their backs to protect the Gungans from the battle droid blasters. These fambaas are extremely tough, with 20 armor added to ranged and melee attacks. Moreover, they of course have shields. This unique unit grants shields to all friendly units in a large radius, effectively doubling their hit points. In addition, shields regenerate over time, making any army under cover of fambaa shield generators a more resilient and tenacious foe than would otherwise be possible. Once upgraded, they become more monstrously powerful, with 25 armor and 100 more hit points, which actually works out to +200 hit points when you factor in the shield. This unit alone makes the Gungan army extremely strong and will probably be a staple of any Gungan general's army. I have one simple comment upon this paragraph...OH CRAP!!! As stated before, the Gungans are strong in mechs and ships. Mechs really are the backbone of the Gungan army. They have good hit points relative to the mechs of other civilizations, and they also are fairly strong. When you throw in the fambaa shield generator, Gungans are tough to dispatch. Gungans also are surprisingly strong in infantry. They get the entire lineup of infantry units, including repeater troops, advanced mounted troops, and heavy antiair troops. The last unit, antiair, is key, because one of the two glaring weaknesses of the Gungans is in air units. Now say it again...OH CRAP!!! BTW, new screens added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthfergie Posted November 3, 2001 Share Posted November 3, 2001 Gungans are severely handicapped when it comes to air units. They do get the full line of air units, but they don't get any tech level four air upgrades, so their fighters and bombers are less accurate than those of other civs--they have no shields, and they aren't as fast. Moreover, Gungan air units cost 5 percent more and take 5 percent longer to build. Because of their lack of air superiority, Gungan ground units are thus vulnerable to air attacks, and a mighty fambaa army will die helplessly against enemy fighters and bombers if no antiair escorts accompany them into base. So while the Gungans do have a decided strength in ground units, their air inferiority is a huge weakness. THANK YOU!!! man...I got worried there for a minute (The GB superPower...GUNGANS:sweat: ) ALL SCREENS HAVE BEEN FIXED LOOK AT IT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
