| Summary | 0006446: Extreme Golems/Spirecraft | ||||
| Description | Just a little more pain for the player. I'm not usually one to turn on the more masochistic options, but I personally think that the Medium golems seem more realistc of the golems, so to speak, but the exo waves are too fun to turn down. It makes sense for the golems to increase AIP and have a large energy cost. In the desciption of the expansion, it seems like taking a golem should be a choice, as in it might impact you negatively if taken at the wrong time. This is certainly true for medium golems (Also, it makes sense that the AI should be alarmed by the acquisition of a golem) but on Hard there's no hesitation to taking these beasts. You just grab them whenever you can as long as your mineral+crystal will allow it. Thus, I propose an "Extreme Golems" and "Extreme Spirecraft" option, combining the unique mechanics for each superweapon combined with exo threat. I don't think it would be too widely used, but it might be nice to have the option there. | ||||

A worst of both worlds option. I like it, even though I would never choose it. |

I'd play with it for golems at least. I always play medium because I enjoy making the choice and the fact that they increase the AIP can make it a difficult decision. But I do miss the exo's (which I have turned on for spirecraft). Having those 2 options combined would be great. |

What about counterbalancing the doubled penalty by having more of them? Should be interesting for multiplayer games. |
