Guest Tie Guy Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Hmm, i don't think so, it would be cool, but haven't we already given them enough advantages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gamma732 Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 The Tanya unit in RA2 can do that but its not used a whole lot, so i don't know how usful it would be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boba Rhett Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Hello Sir Michael. Welcome to the GB boards. You should be recieving your giftbasket shortly. I think it would be cool if they would have a limited amount of time they could swim and if they went over that time, they drown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 i think it would be cool for gungans to swim. but wouldn't that kind of be unfair if there's no way of killing them underwater? if they have that ability, there has to be a way of shooting them down, otherwise it's kind of unfair. i like your suggestion boba, maybe have them come up for air and then swim again so that it eats up time.

Guest Kvan Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 When we say Gungan, we are talking about just the grunt troops right? BTW Rhett I never got a giftbasket when I joined! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boba Rhett Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Maybe there could be some kind of electrocution weapon were you set water probes on boths sides of a body of water and when something is detected swiming across the lines created by the two probes, it sends an electrical surge into the water. It could also be a double edged sword by also being able to damage units standing by the water. *Hands Kvan a gift basket* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitth'raw'nuruodo Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Hey! I want a gift basket too! WAAAAAAHHHHHHH! *sniff, sniff * Where's mine?! P.S. Take out any choclate covered cherries please (I hate those things). Anyway, I think it would be great if Gungans could swim, but not the grunts just a special unit or something. And boats should be able to his him easily so he'd need to use stealthy tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rhett! *Shares his basket with thrawn, but only the Choco cherries* If only a special unit can swim isn't that just like the boats they have already? ME, personally would say just the grunts should swim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 yeah i agree kvan, if anything have the grunts swim. gungans already have unique sub units and will probably posess the most powerful navy anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ZeroXcape Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Agreed, Gunguns should really have this ability... Maby they already do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith 5 Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 I would have to say that they sohould be able to swim and for as long as they want. So the gungans are really strong in the water, what are they going to be like out of water (A fish out of water???) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 It would be wierd trasnporting half your army over water by boat and half swam...(they would swim above the water like Tanya or the Navy Seals) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dvader07 Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 I think that it would be cool if they could swim, but to keep it balanced, maybe they could swim above the water like the tanya unit in RA2 and when they are swimming, they have fewer hp and are easier to kill. Then you could give the other units and towers, etc. the ability to fire at them while in the water. This would make it so that the gungans would be taking quite a risk just sending a swimming army right up to your front doorstep. They would have to be sneaky using this.

Booya2020 Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Id much rather see the ability for At-At's to squish units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 And they shouldn't be able to attack boats or anything in the water, if they can swim. Also, if they swim they should be able to be shot at with lasers in the water, even though that sounds wierd, and maybe they would have lower defenses in the water, and couldn't attack right awawy when they got out.

Lord JayVizIon Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 well, if they can swim, i don't think the gungans should be greatly hampered, or else no one is going to want to put them in water anyways. that's something for gaber and LEC to decide.

Wraith 5 Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Is there any reason the the droid army can't go in the water??? Remeber in the movie they said they had heard the gungans were there and they said they (the droid commander) would get them (the gungans) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dvader07 Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 If you think along those lines, then anyone should be able to swim. If you really want to get into the movies, then the jedi should be able to swim using those cool breathing aparatus that both Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan had in TPM.

Guest xwing guy Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 when the TF said they would go down a get the gungans what they probably did was use an amphibpus MTT that sent there troops down there into the underwater cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitth'raw'nuruodo Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 No, no. Not everyone should be able to swim. That would make boats pointless. Besides, the why not just have everything be land? No, only on special Gungan unit should swim, maaayyyybe a Jedi IF they research an upgrade. Hmmmm, thats a good idea, perhaps that special gungan unit could be upgraded to swim?

Guest dvader07 Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 I wasn't saying that everyone should be allowed to swim, I was just saying that if you follow the logic of, "hey they were able to in the movies." then everyone should be able to swim. I personally agree that it should be limited greatly, if included at all. The upgrade idea isn't a bad one. It would have to cost a lot though cause a swimming cloaked jedi would be one dangerous little guy. Then again, a cloaked jedi period is going to be a dangerous guy.

Guest Tie Guy Posted August 18, 2001 Share Posted August 18, 2001 Ok, if the Gungans can swim, the wookiee troops should be able to walk through the trees, but they would walk slowly and all. Now, what could the other civs have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
