Title: [Suggestion] Macro Flamer Tank (and hover tank)
Post by: betatester on February 20, 2020, 07:42:33 pm: Since I saw the Macro Flamer I wonder if we couldn't mount a macro Flamer on a tank (not a tank but a tank, I was so sad when I realized that the tank was a tank and not a tank) or hover tank once the macro flamer (and unconventional weapons) is researched. Needed a macro flamer as part.

I haven't checked all units or armors but is there a way to use it on our units ?

A sectopod version too ?

Flame tanks? Hell yes! Especially if they do actual damage instead of just damage-over-time.

I hope we get a funny staff report about this about how your science lead tries to justify deploying such an hilariously illegal and inhuman weapon in the field.
