Custom Units

Wouldn't it be neat if while making a custom game there was also an option for either creating a new unit or customizing an old one?

This would allow a lot more creativity in games, for instance you could create units such as barricades, which would have extremely high defense, and be unmovable, or extremely offensive units with almost unlimited ranges, the choices are infinite.

You could click a box to whether the unit would be buyable or not. If not, then the only way to get the unit would be for the creator of the scenario to have put them in there him/herself, and would not drain the owner's income. If they are made purchaseable, then they would also have an option to set the price.

I don't know if this is even possible to create, but i wouldn't think that it would be very difficult to program. Obviously, the system could be abused when a scenario is made to give one side practically invincible units, but that can already happen already, and people just don't play that scenario. This would give the creators of scenarios much more freedom to create what they see as ideal.

This is a really cool idea, and it seems like it could be possible.

Thanks i thought of the idea when i thought of having a nation "fenced off" by units, but if i gave the person enough of a unit to make a formidable barrier, they could just use the units offensivly and it would backfire greatly, so i thought of being able to make my own barricades that could have high defense but unmoveable.

I like the idea, with one condition, this new rules:
players cant get sp on scenarios with custom units.

Why not? There's no point in making it if no SP is to be gotten from it, nobody's going to play it if they won't get anything out of it.

Because no one is goin to play normal games after this, and the scenarios are goin to be farm of sp.
clandestine scenarios to make random sp.

Uhh guys', the admins said a very long time ago this was out of the question, because of what Tunder3 said.
