Edit: How will engineers be handled? Are they too operated by their own logic, or will you be able to boss them around to build?
Just saw this, yes, you can tell them what to build, and to a limited degree, where. They will build things like spike fences in the direction of the enemy where possible, but also will attempt to cover all angles. They are a little more intelligent than the typical soldier.

Don't cannons make constructors somewhat obsolete? Aside from needing to get them in the first place, it's cheaper to destroy a 5x5 tile of constructions and scatter/kill anything else in there than it is to make even a single construction.

Cannons can't break buildings made by constructors, they break engineer constructions.

Think of them as a tool for scattering fortified positions.

My bad, I thought engineers needed action points to construct their things. I was thinking of the right unit but wrong name, and wrong costs.

What program are you using for this? I've seen it pop up a couple of times now.

Well damn...Looks like a fun program to play with. But I can't run it. Why do people put forth the effort to make a program work on both win and mac but not linux?
