3 I suggest to remove the ability to have both cloak and dgun on coms. My com died as did many units in this game to a cloacked com with dgun. Where is the stategy? It's a surefire kill to the com holder. Of course, I could have set cloacked counter-units around com to decloack any potential cloacked dgun com but come on, it's no fun if we have to do this every game at this very early stage. My com could have handled a couple of scythe, a sniper, but not a dgun. There's no way to scout a player in the process of morphing to a cloacked dgun com. And where is the skill there? You get close, you shoot, you hit. No skills at all. 3 I suggest to remove the ability to have both cloak and dgun on coms. My com died as did many units in this game to a cloacked com with dgun.

5 Someone could say that ultimatum is the same but strangely, I see nobody rushing ulti at early game, only cloacked com with of course the ability to run (many servos modules), which ulti does not have, not to mention ability to build etc. Ulti also has a downside, it can be decloacked and surrounded by raiders. With coms, even this does not work as they have the second weapon, generally a riot weapon. 5 Someone could say that ultimatum is the same but strangely, I see nobody rushing ulti at early game, only cloacked com with of course the ability to run (many servos modules), which ulti does not have, not to mention ability to build etc. Ulti also has a downside, it can be decloacked and surrounded by raiders.

7 As for skuttle, I see nothing wrong with them, it's not comparable. Sure, it's hard to stop but (1) you lose your unit (2) sometimes, it misses and com stays alive (although badly damaged).

7 You could say: "abuse cloacked dgun coms and it will get nerfed". I find this way of playing corward-like and I would prefer avoiding having to go to this length. 9 You could say: "abuse cloacked dgun coms and it will get nerfed".
