Cannister Pack (chem/flame)

[Madkill40]

Chem troopers and flame troopers are badass and are legendary spray and prays.

In original Ren (campaign) they had back cannisters, ideally make them a compact size so their back has to be facing you to kill them faster.

This also introduces explosive kill if you attack the cannister directly which could harm every other infantry, minimal on other flames/chems depending.

Vehicles crushing them would also take damage.

Cannister explosions shouldn't harm buildings in any way. Or if they do its very minimal.

This way they can be a bit tougher on the body but this means a chem rush isn't a cheap rush that's full proof and there's still a penalty.

Original Ren seemed unable to do this, RenX should.

... Have you pointed a gun in the direction of a Chem's head? 

 

I'm still not seeing Chems being that big a deal. All of Nod's good starting rushes are flak, and all of GDI's 3 starting paid units counter flak pretty hard...

I generally just walk out with an Officer and go 6-0 till I have to refill, since everyone just throws themselves at you with things that die to bullets.

Units that potentially explode upon death is always satisfying to see.

It'd be a nice touch if they had a small explosion, but I wouldn't expect that to actually get implemented.

Then make mcfarland's alt-fire occasionally fail and shoot himself in the face to balance things out

He could have a belt of grenades, grenedier too, but McFarland's are shrapnel.

Mendoza chemical tanks exploding sounds nice. In Renegade, he was burning on fire when Havoc blew his tanks up so now we can see him on tiberium goo.

Mendoza exploding should do enough damage to kill a humvee if one ran him over, driver included if T1 infantry or free infantry.

Now you're just being silly.

That's dumb.

You're dumb.

You get outta'ere!

I dont think C4 detonates simply by squishing. Burning, shooting, squishing it won't blow it up.
