Additional new units in command and conquer rivals
Is it possible there will be additional units like firehawk and MARV of GDI, and Shadow team and Redeemer of Brotherhood of Nod for command and conquer rivals?? Thanks

I am very very sure that neither the MARV nor the Redeemer will be implemented, since mammoth and avatar are supposed to be the "ultimate weapon". If these units will be implemented, they will be just impossible to stop. Mammoth and avatar are rather hard to defeat already, so MARV and redeemer would be close to impossible. And their cost would be like 400 or something, it's just unaffordable. And you only have 6 slots, so you have to pick your army wisely. In other C&C games you could just build whatever unit you wanted, but not here. Giving up a slot for a unit that will be used maybe in 5% of your games is not worth it.
The firehawk on the other hand has a chance of being impleneted. It just runs into some problems (I will refer to the firehawk from C&C 3, it there is one in C&C 1 or C&C 2 and it behaves differently than the one from C&C 3, the problems might be nonexistant):
1) If it has multiple anti air rockets before it needs to reload, then it functions basically the same as the phantom, which is not that great. Units should have some variety. And if you want anti-air air, we already have the hammerhead, so why do we need another one?
2) If it has some bombs to throw down, we already have the orca bomber. I am aware that both units function differently, but they have the same purpose - bombing the ground.
If firehawk will be implemented as anti air, it should behave differently compared to the hammerhead and the phantom. The devs then must come up with an original concept.
If firehawk will be implemented as a bomber, it should behave differently compared to the orca bomber and the inferno. The devs then must, again, come up with an original concept.
The shadowteam, however, has good chances of being implemented. I personally want more stealth units in the game, and shadow teams would be awesome!
@xMaksuss But the firehawks act as both fighter and bomber at the same time, right??
@xMaksussIf the firehawks implemented act as both fighter and bomber at the time, right? While the shadow teams will implemented as a stealth sniper unit, right??

If firehawks attack both air and ground, they would be really strong. But maybe devs can implement it somehow.
Shadowteam can be implemented as anti-infantry with stealth. How exactly this is implemented is up to the devs.
Which other units will be implemented next are unclear. Usually it‘s units which exist in the C&C games, only rarely they do not exist (Centurion for example (OR I might be wrong and they actually exist in a C&C game( I didn‘t play C&C 2))). So firehawk, shadowteam, or how about the RIG?
- @xMaksuss How about heroes like commandos on both sides, they will possible implemented for command and conquer rivals?
