Flea needs turret turnrate buff for more epic micro. It also needs to stop blowing up its neighbors.

It needs an "exclude from Ctrl+Z" button!

I've had fun with almost a thousand fleas in a private lobby once. slowed game speed quite a lot, moving them all randomly, or even not moving them at all. once you get a critical mass of fleas, they can chainsplode to some extent. the new engine actually fixes the bug where they would crash into each other when mass moving for near instant death, but it is funny to watch about 300 fleas grinding their dead explosive bits together at a light lazer beam.

It is also fun to rush fleas in 40-50 mass in the beginning of a game to shutout all eco and melt a factory or com.

Skasi - my dream command is a "lock" toggle - locked units ignore orders unless only locked units are selected. Then I could "lock" my hidden fleas.

I had a dream about this once, and then I awoke to find myself very disturbed that I had been a dream.

Fleas are the insects forming the order Siphonaptera. They are wingless, with mouthparts adapted for piercing skin and sucking blood. Fleas are external parasites, living by hematophagy off the blood of mammals and birds.

I believe that burrowed ticks should attach to units that get too close to them and suck the poor robot's oil out, to better represent it's name. The unit should not notice and wither up and die within a few days.

I have a primitive version of that: my Fleas on Wait ignore Move orders. Want the widget?

Hey, it's 3 years later and I wish that too!

Also a silly thought: what if flea could only leap around instead moving (doing that automatically without cooldown).

That exists, in a way, with selection rank. Set the Fleas that you want to lock to selection rank zero.

It does not work when I press ctrl+z or ctrl+x which is my main way of selecting units... or does it?

It does work! Now if there only was a way to visualise which hotkeys are free to bind to...

Sounds a lot like me. Wait a minute...

It only takes 32-35 fleas to kill a commander without any escorts.
