Sentinel mode (special reaction TU)
« on: August 16, 2015, 07:01:01 pm »
Sentinel Mode

Please allow define special TU/EN unit resources which could be use only for reaction action purposes.
Any units whit such resources can't use them from manual move or actions but could be use for automatic reaction actions.

For example:
- Some HVP  could have such bonus.
- Introduce special Sentinel drone which can't manual move or shoot (units have to carry it) but can automatically react on enemy actions

No change needed. Make a unit with very low stamina, and movement will make it run out of energy while it still has TUs for shooting and reaction fire.

Yes, but making it more generic may give you better results.
for example you may have more deadly cyberdisk which will always fire in reaction no matter if it move or fire in turn

Certainly would be scary if there was an enemy that could fire at your troops no matter what.

Superfluous, unneeded, confusing, unfair.

Sorry, but I'm particularly sincere today. :P
