Exactly. Fundamentally, having a whole lab being countered by a very specific class of units destroys the "lab-as-faction" paradigm of ZK. To regain the complexity of AA play, you'd probably have to make *half* the combat units in each lab into flex-AA (making dedicated AA into an optional feature) and start hammering down some "classes" of AA units beyond anti-bomber/anti-gunship... which is even worse because it separates AA counters even further into "unit to fight Lab X/unit to fight lab Y".

But either way, bringing back more complicated interactions would require completely reworking the entire air game and *seriously* screwing up the balance on a dozen classic ZK units to give them flex-AA abilities. And in some case you might have to do the BA-Panther "unrelated AA weapon bolted onto land unit" thing.

It stinks that air/gunships are the Super Special Labs, but I don't know there's anything for it.
