Any chance to see 'Legendary' units?

Just a thought that came to mind, I'm a big hearthstone player previously and thought the common, rare, epic sounded familiar. Why not also Legendary?

C&C previously had units that could fill this role, GDI Commando, Nod Cyborg Commando. GDI Mammoth Mark 2/Mastodon (from Tib Sun and C&C 4). Nod Leviathan from C&C 4? Big flying blob that shoots fireballs from far away while boosting friendly armor.

Difference with these units?

You can only construct 1 at a time, when it dies, you can build another one.

Simply multi-purpose neat units.

Nothing too good or too expensive, just a multi-purpose single unit. Or maybe a micro intense unit for a change.

We already have a powerhouse Mammoth Tank which costs a crap ton, this is not what I want, I'm not saying bring more OP units to the table. Just a unique aspect of having 1 unit roaming the battlefield with heavy micro abilities.

GDI Commando could for example be a fast moving unit like Jump jets, while also having an ability to put small charges on buildings and tanks.

If you keep it alive, high reward, if you waste it, high loss.

    If we were gonna bring in legendary units, id have to agree with you and have to be the mammoth mk2 from tiberium sun for GDI. Like a 300 tiberium cost unit though.

    And yeah for nod it could be something less beefy, the cyborg commando effective against everything on the ground with 2 tile range.

    Heck, maybe not legendary but they could add in the reaper cyborg, CCs infantry, would be interesting mechanic addition to the game or a 100 tiberium cost spy (nod unit as it is in the game). Pay a pretty penny and attempt to steal an enemy vehicle.

    There's constantly new patches and updates to the game, new units coming all the time.

    Agreed.  Would like to see a leader unit type.

    If it's a new slot and unique - as a kind of supplement to the commanders, it'll certainly need a high cost and it's own cool down.

    If it's taking up a slot in your deck - then only being able to field 1 of it's type is part of its balance - I do think it should also have it's own cool down on death.  But, in this scenario, I don't think it'd need to be as costly.

    Just let me know where I can go vote to get Natasha Volkova put in game.

    the first time they put a new unit was the mg/avatar which has been almost a month now

    and updates are very few and far in between
