<div class="IPBDescription">I am not sure how it can be introduced on the game but...</div>I was thinking that the Hive commander could attack the Marine Commander or just make it harder and vice versa.

I do not mean damaging the commander I mean making his camera go funny and other things. The alien commander could make the marine commanders view go blurring and maybe disable his moves for a short period of time. The same for the marine commander.

It wouldn't need much explaination on how it works as the marine commander could send a shock of electricity to the Alien Commander and and something similar for the Kharaa commader.


but it would need to be tweeked a lot to prevent abuse but I think it is a good idea.


post your ideas below.

    Only if the effect does damage the commander's team as well.

    For example the marines interfere with hivemind, but their radar is jammed and shows bogus contacts in return for the duration of the effect.

    Probably no.

    I mean doing something like screwing with Motion tracking to give false positive? OK. Screwing with the Power grid for a short period? OK.

    Screwing with the commander's interface? Not OK.

    In general I'd very much like to fight the battles on ground level. If I want to play against a single RTS commander, I can do that in SC2 for example. NS on the other hand lives and dies through the commander and self-thinking unit relation, which makes it wonderfully unique at best.

    I don't mind having a commander interfering ability or two, but I think those should still contribute more to the field play instead of just being a way for commanders to have their own slugfest on a completely different layer.

    Enchant area of infestation so marine commander can't drop there or squads spawn in for a short time,
