Just watch and tell me do these giant meteors destroying half of base aren't cute? Well imagine what if we had some very costly building which would be able to give us a meteor to throw :> Something what is ultimate, something what is as strong as ICBM or even stronger... something what can melt half of map ;x

Or if that vision seems to be to much powerful - maybe just send few smaller meteorites which can be repelled by shields or Newtons? Just imagine - Your arch enemies send meteorites upon your tiny base and >puff< Your Newtons just push them away to enemy locations terribly backfiring them ;]

Perhaps hideously inaccurate, so that they land all over the map... like a Tremor turned up to 11. With mini-nukes.

Or perhaps an orbital bombardment - a spaceship lumbers across the map in low orbit (i.e. a very large, very high aircraft) and blasts things as it passes over. Give it a horrible turn rate so that it flies off the map and then comes back for another pass after several minutes, and a weapon that faces directly down and can only fire in a 1-degree arc so it can only fire at things almost directly below it.

Maybe introduce ground-to orbit weapons?

Sorry, I just had this idea in my head for a while and this seems a good time to mention it.

There actually was a meteor shower weapon in the game at one point called the Zenith. I don't think the explosions were as powerful, but when someone had the thing up(cost as much as a starlight as it was Logos's big weapon) tons of little meteors would be showing the enemies side of the map blowing up stuff and making massive destruction.

Oh, I saw that in the Mission Editor. I wondered what it was. Need to use it in a mission :-D

Something like the meteor gun weapon in "Ratchet and clank" where hundreds of random meteors rain and explode like a cluster bombs XD? That weapon was so LOL

Its was cause the weapon hasn't been reimplimented. Far as I know although there are plans to do such.

Its already in the test version. It just needs some model edits (Which i cant do because its using the .obj format which needs blender which is a nightmare of a program) to add empty pieces (no new geometry, just aiming pieces) then it can be put in game.

MidKnight uses Blender I think. Maybe try bugging him in the lobby.

as a matter of blender, my 3D module(dunno about module translation) teacher first used max, for years then he switched to blender, and he said that blender is far better, and he wont come back to max, I m using blender well I m happy with it but I have never used another program as i m still newb in 3D and now working on short animation "bunchie vs roflocopter" : will post it somewhere when it is finished (hope in this month...)
