Time for some weapon spring cleaning!

People either close range with poison or Ice cannon, or long/medium range with Lasers, Fantastics, and other weapons 850+. Anything in between is franly useless, and lame.

I also think Artilley should be improved, either with more range or a bit more damage.

Hmmm... I like playing with 800-860 Range, because there are some situation where you cannot retreat if you go to close combat. If you can stay at 750 Range you could get away from the enemy Cp maybe without teleport if another enemy teleport.

The Artillerie is great if you change the weapon mode to ground only, if there are no airships or so you could use it quiet well.

Well, Artillery naturally can't hit air at all, so I think it should be bought on ground mode, and changed to air more otherwise?

I also think it should do AOE (if possible) afterall, its not like a mortar shot hitting a tank, its an explosive shot hitting something and blowing up.

Why not an upgradable ground only weapon. I think the artillery would be improved by that.
An air tank is a good counter then, but since you can attack creeps and towers its not useless.

Another idea could be an upgradable Artillerie, which can change its moder after upgrade.

I dislike most weapons, which I have to change often in the game, but therefore have got no update. (I disliked the old multibow in earlier versions - creep and normal changing). So first upgrade than changable would be nice. (so the upgrade has not just the improvement of range or damage, but even means some extratechnology for modes)

The same maybe for the rock catapult. After the update you could make it attack buildings or normal as you like.

The possibility to use modes after an update could improve BT tactics in the whole gameplay maybe, even if you can just change the range from medium to long range or so. (I am afraid there will be only new tactics by new implemented tanks)

Artillery is my favorite weapon. Dont need to change...
If you want ground only weapon, buy bombs. Artillery is a mod weapon!

[Gammagulp]

The bombs are hero only, ground only (and only for air tanks) thats not what i meant as ground only

(the change i supposed was - artillerie 1 (5000 Gold) same damage and attack as it is now.
Then you can upgrade it with more dps -->artillerie 2
and are able to use the mode after you updated that weapon
--> artillery 2 mode 1
--> artillery 2 mode 2 )

If you dont like it, maybe we take other weapons - it was just an example
