1 ok, but isnt it good that theres a counter to skirmishers? i always wondered how youre supposed to kill them, anyway. most factories have problems to kill skirmishers, unless im mistaken here and doing something terribly wrong :) so its a good thing that theres a factory thats good at it, and even then, you can just pack some tarantulas to your recluses and then napalm bomber isnt a big problem anymore. i dont see why this fine mechanic needs to be owled to the point that napalm bomber is hardly worth using anymore - its no longer good at killing swarms of units, nor is it particularly good against buildings. you will now need 2 napalm bombers to kill a single mex, you cant set on fire vast amounts of structures because they dont actually burn anymore. it was already bad at anything else. 1 ok, but isnt it good that theres a counter to skirmishers? i always wondered how youre supposed to kill them, anyway. most factories have problems to kill skirmishers, unless im mistaken here and doing something terribly wrong :) so its a good thing that theres a factory thats good at it, and even then, you can just pack some tarantulas to your recluses and then napalm bomber isnt a big problem anymore. i dont see why this fine mechanic needs to be owled to the point that napalm bomber is hardly worth using anymore - its no longer good at killing swarms of units, nor is it particularly good against buildings. you will now need 2 napalm bombers to kill a single mex, you cant set on fire vast amounts of structures because they dont actually burn anymore. it was already bad at anything else.

3 and i may add, i just played 2 games against google in which he used napalm bombers and it was not worth it at all. he killed 1 mex in two attacks, he lost it in the second because i had aa already. he did bomb some outlaws and thugs, but since they dont burn anymore, they basically just ignored it. they took like 300 damage each( if even) , thats just ridiculous for a unit that needs to reload after each shot and dies to 3 defenders. to make considerable damage to anything with phoenixes now, you will need lots and lots of them and then youre at the point where you probably just make some stilletos or a licho. 3 and i may add, i just played 2 games against google in which he used napalm bombers and it was not worth it at all. he killed 1 mex in two attacks, he lost it in the second because i had aa already. he did bomb some outlaws and thugs, but since they dont burn anymore, they basically just ignored it. they took like 300 damage each( if even) , thats just ridiculous for a unit that needs to reload after each shot and dies to 3 defenders. to make considerable damage to anything with phoenixes now, you will need lots and lots of them and then youre at the point where you probably just make some stilletos or a licho. you are not going to make 2 napalms so you can bomb mexes, you will make a prec bomber instead or just not do it anymore.
