The Republic should get ANOTHER unique air unit to make it even more of a rebel replacement... ...And that republic unit should be strong and armored and have some AA and good anti troop and i suppose why not throw in 25 range just so it can be as s...  [Read More]

In all likelyhood you are a vocal minority. There is a possibility that you are not, but it is very unlikely considering how close the poll is. People who dont like an idea tend to say "boring... not worth the time" and skip the thread comp...  [Read More]
