So during 2018 I made this idea list and thought Warfield would be a great commander but with Mengsk coming out I saw that our ideas with the unit style were pretty close. Here’s just some ideas that I thought would be great.
Warfield- an aggressive slow pushing commander that can reinforce his allies when needed (maxed supply is 100). Special traits are veteranized units and higher tier units along with a Astro Command Center. The astro command center contains 12 upgrades that are sectioned into 4 groups. You can only pick one from each. The 12 abilities are
Astro Command Center
Group A
1.Units now spawn at rank 2
2.Unit ranking up now takes less time and kills
3.Units can share a bit of experience to other units when killing enemies
Group B
1.All call downs time reduced by 20%
2.Increase the Defense point region and reduce its cost(500 to 300)
3.Battle Cry last twice as long and Sacrifice no longer requires a captain to be sacrificed
Group C
1.ACC(Astro command center) can now shoot missiles and summon fighter jets
2.Units close to the ACC have increase range by +2 and have a 10% to dodge damage
3.ACC can deploy gorgons every 300 secs
Group D
1.Max supply goes to 150 instead of 100
2.All buildings gain plus +1 armor and 30% production speed
3.Units can randomly get inspired (small speed buff and damage)
Top Bar Abilities
- Call in a Gorgon- call in a gorgon to destroy units in a straight line, once the gorgon is done you decided whether to drop a Stellar Bomb (A super nuke) or summon a gorgon ship that last 120 secs (360 cooldown)
- Battle Cry- all units gain +3 armor, 1.5 increase in movement speed, any units near a captain gain +1 attack
- Sacrifice- select a captain ranked unit(can’t be a marine) and kill them but recall all your units to an area with full HP and drastic speed boost
- Defense Point- call down a mini defense consisting of a few bunkers a missle turret and units (Units cannot be controlled; cost 500 minerals, max of 3, last 240 secs) In the area of the calldown all units gain a +2 armor with + 1 range
