<div class="IPBDescription">The ARC Alien</div>Last night i had a idea.
The Marines have ARCs but what have the Aliens?
The Alien Turtle!
(this picture is bad,i know :D )

The commander can spawn the turtle for 40 ress,then he build whips,crags and/or shade on it.
Gorges can build hydras on the turtle.
The turtle is very slow but it has a good def.
The commander can control the turtle like a arc.
He can "deploy" it,it means the turtle hiding in the turtlearmor so it have very good defend but it can't move.
He can "undeploy" it,this means the turtle can walk but the marines can shoot at the head of the turtle.
If the turtle die only the armor ,with the things on it,is lying there and now it have no infestation and the whips,hydras and other things do nothing.
If the turtle alive it has his own infestion on it and it needn't to be connectet with a hive.
I hope you enjoy the picture,and sry for my bad english ;)

what are sentrys then???hydras???
but then what is about the mines???
It's more like a moveable defensive fortification. You would put it in a support location rather than send it into a marine base.

yes those are all somewhat related mechanics
mines, I'd say, are similar to whatever the 'cyst exploding' thing is called
the point is that there are similar mechanics for both sides, and very little good ever comes from making them both <i>more </i>similar

if marines had an ARC which was like 5x the size of a normal arc, had normal Turrets allover it and an armoury in the middle then maybe it would be similar but it's not
I strongly disagree. A Command Center being gorgied by an incredible amount of drifters is a sight to see; if the server doesn't completely lag out. :)
I like turtles.
