awe no, i don't feel bad, just stunned is all haha

and yea, at least YOUR dude you fought got a hit in the before you handed his butt to him on a platter,...I didn't even get THAT much dealt out before MY butt was handed back in a doggie bag of all things haha

Another example of the stun effect:

http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/view_arena.php?arena_id=90221

I believe the stun effect is a game imbalance. Even though I was the victor, I consider it a bit unfair. My bot has maybe a two or three ability point advantage and he comes out of the fight completely unscathed? I don't think so.

In order to advance to the top spots, I was forced to change my alts into rammers. I switched Supercruise back to a jet temporarily, but he started to lose his #1 spot very rapidly, forcing me to switch him back into a truck.

I recognize how difficult it is to program a balanced game. Hopefully the HMW2 developers will respond quickly once game imbalances are identified.

Well, there's going to be a point where a Strafer will be straight out better than a Rammer, but I don't think even you or I will reach it if HMW2 is coming out in May or June. :mrgreen:

I believe he still holds the game record (post reset):
Game record for a mission

Thrust and Waspinator in the same mission?

Oh the hilarity that would ensue!

Chick-bots dig the 'brooding loner' bit!

Man I miss Waspinator and Thrust :-(
