Research Idea: Explosive Sniper Rounds :P
Research cost: 0/100 points
Research results: Gives snipers the ability: Explosive rounds. Recharge 5 miniturns(take that as time for the barrel to cooldown and everyont to get the brain out of their hair)

Paradrop planes:

Research points required 0/200
Allows you to drop your infanteryunits anywhere on the map. Note that the planes are fragile and wont come close to antiaridefenses and flying units. Pickup not included.

MORE RESEARCH IDEAS:

Automated Combat Drones
Automated Aerial Combat Drone
Seeker Missiles

Automated Combat Drones
Research: 0/400
Grants ability: Deploy combat drones to 1 unit.
Automated Aerial Combat Drone
Research: 0/400
Grants ability: Deploy combat drones to 1 unit.
Seeker Missiles
Research:
0/200
Allows missile units to shoot around cover. They need to have someone spotting for them though.

Giving me descriptions when stating research thingies is often a good idea.

Which one of them are you going to take first, or are you going to request yet another thingy.

If I can I was going to research Explosive Ammo, and the Ground Combat Drone. If not both then just Explosive Ammo

0/50 Research points
Lowers infection chance by 20 %. Note that the Zed disease will grow more virulent over time.

You can. It's just a point off allocating research points as you have no real lab facilities yet.

I love the idea of paradrops, high fuel, high transport cap, would need a long and possibly wide line if it could land?

The current idea of paradrops is that some allied ships come pick up your troops and then drop them of where needed. Giving you real paradrop planes(as a unit, rather than an ability) would require you to upgrade your base to unlock an extra unit slot, then use that to create paradrop planes.

Yeah. But, i ordered the building of a mining shaft right below the CommandCenter, but doesnt seem it ever even started? (N13-P15 since it is 3x3)

That's what happens when orders aen't properly centralised. ( No my bad, I forgot about it, adding it right now.)

Hmm... thinking about it, would I be able to research something like Frontline Manufacturing, that would offset part of the cost of new units by spending resources instead? Either that, or a self destruct mechanism that would allow a few Locus mechs to detonate to damage nearby zombies, or to destroy the mechs if they've become infected.

On the subject of zombie infection, since my units are robotic, I was thinking they'd employ organic components in their central processing units, that could become infected by the zombie viruses. It wouldn't really be fair if my units were impossible to infect, at least not without spending any extra for a second ability for them.
