Scron has a point and makes me think how to define what I'm saying a little better. Currently, we have most players playing with a very offensive mindset, hence comes Kill-Stealing. Remember that anoying guy who always used his 2k Lava-Shot to finish your kill? Yeah... We have seen the offensive game plan explored VERY deaply, with new tanks and multiple gun shops. What I'm saying is explore the other end of the spectrum. I'm saying you should make an investment that increases gold per 5 secconds or something that is only available after picking certain defensive tanks. Not to toot my own trumped, but I think my fortress idea has alot going for it. I think it would be pretty cool to make a "Battle Station" tank. There are limitless ideas for support, while the offensive end of the game has been hammered and hammered. The alt way of getting gold should not be as effective as killing, as it is less risky. But this is fine since the support tank shouldn't need to provide the main fire power. Some possible Ideas for abilities are : An ability that resets cool downs. An ability that Builds a tower from a distance. and many others. I belive the Support tanks should be from things like the gaurd ( a mobile battle station) all the way to tanks that can sit back and really support the team by plopping down and just cutting off creap flows. An intersting idea would be a tank that can literally create other tanks. Mayby call it a constructor. It could learn a wide range of abilities that could be used to creature units of different power levels. offensive, defensive, long range, short range. You could have different costs - 500, 5000, 10000, 15000, or something of the likes. There are endless ideas for support and defense. Personally, I'd like to see farming manifest in some low cost tanks other than the scout. I think BT could go a lot deaper if you could get your focus of the next greatest offensive boss. I've knowticed a trend of "Can you top this?" Also the last few version of been devoid of interesting new changes, please, just give it a try...
