Tiberium Wars: Firestorm mod

i shall make the universal cry of all GDI commanders. **** the nod arty. lol good work on the mod mate Firehawk-Ph4ntom and excellent work on the campaign addon Steamroller99

PS: MOAR ROCKETS, i know its broken as hell but i would like to be able to build two ripple batteries.

I completely agree. They have unquestionably the worst possible AA buildings, ground units and even air is pretty weak, as firehawks are literally any sort of counter you can make. The jetpacks are actually decent, but they are extremely squishy with rather short range. I always personlized GDI with the most defensive faction and here they seem to have worst defences of all tbh, with barely existing anti air and way shorter range of their buildings (there is completely no competition now that both obelisk of light and storm columns can be charged to increase range and speed). A little question, but why not have 2 options with the current and previous anti air structures, just the one with rockets being for AoE to counter groups of units and other one for single target with longer range? Scrin have INSANE storm columns that cancel every existing air unit and nod have not only very spammable and fast venoms, but also the cyborgs (especially these for 2200 from secret shrine) that delete every air with instant laser shot. Even the GDI special defensive structure seems to be the worst, as rockets take long time before landing and their damage is very questionable, while the NOD's incinerating tower does lot of AoE removing every infantry and low armor vehicle from existance and the Scrin barrier building literally cancels enemy super weapons.

Any improvement sounds good for sure, but I feel like the biggest concern is mostly the projectiles speed of the rockets and the very range of the turret itself, ofc unless sonic shells can fix that issue :P Tiberium essence solved it in a way that as the update that works on the anti-infantry and anti-air turrets increases not only damage (I think it was 25-50%), but also slightly improves range (10% bonus range), which was actually really good way to fix the biggest weaknesses, but not make it overpowered.
PS. I'm not 100% sure, if it was in your previous Tiberium Insanity mod, but I saw some really well thought upgrade for the orcas and firehawks that increases their ammo capacity by 50% (rounded up), which is perfect as spamming airfields takes soooo much space and your cant make the smaller airfields like in Kane's Wrath.

Build more orca rigs. They self-repair, making them more balanced compared to nod AA. I abuse these in other mods as well for my primary defence as gdi. More range (or faster traveling rockets) could make the turrets less of a waste of money though.

Likewise on nod, cyborg reckoners + factories or phantoms are a steel wall.

Thing is that on most of skirmish maps there aint dropship bays and it's the only way to make orca rigs. Honestly I think some more units should be added to the standard GDI airfields like it was done in the tiberium essence mod, because for now it looks quite poorly having only 3 units there with actually 2 of them sharing the same airfield slots (firehawks and orcas). But I do agree that an upgrade for rocket fly speed with maybe some slightl range increase (currently before u detect and hit anything ur AA turrets are basically gone) would be a great improvement.
PS. Adding those deployable APCs to standard factory instead of the dropship bay would also be a great use, as they are also a great defense improvement, altho very weak on AA side.
