New Unit Showcase: Chem Buggy and Drone Swarm

This week, we introduce Nod’s Chem Buggy, which is sure to be a new favorite for Commanders deploying Jade’s Catalyst Missile, and GDI’s Drone Swarm, which will please any air-focused army.

Devastate enemy units with deadly Tiberium gas. The Chem Buggy is Nod’s first known attempt to mechanize Dr. Giraud’s corrosive Tiberium gas cloud weaponry. The Chem Buggy's ability to fire on the move allows aggressive Nod commanders to quickly spray down enemy units with ease.

Destroy enemy infantry with a swarm of lightly armed, unpiloted aircraft. GDI’s Drone Swarm is an outgrowth of Dr. Liang’s research into pilotless aircraft. The Drone Swarm is armed with a light machine gun for front line combat duty. Dr. Liang objected to weaponizing his drone technology but was ultimately countermanded by General Solomon.

    Sorry to say but another OP for NOD.

    The drones for GDI 750 hp 75 damage at 10 cost would be only viable if they was spammed

    Also made chem warriors useless now

    I agree, new GDI is a common card and NOD is a rare card. So more favor to NOD again.

    I got the new GDI drones takes 5 of them level 7 to take out one level 5 buggy or 4 to take out  just reg. Soldiers.

    Haven't tried against missle crew yet.

    But in my opinion they need more balance

    Gonna have to call BS on the last part. Rifleman can't shoot air. So as long as you aren't pressed for time 1 level 1 drone can kill an infinite number of level 15 rifleman =p

    Honestly, I'm expecting good things from the drone. I had a player field a couple level 3 drones VS my level 9 infantry and while my units that COULD shoot them wrecked them, he could swarm the darn things EVERYWHERE early game. So a drone can probably get off a free full scout of your enemies base, AND hunt down rifleman/jump jet troopers without taking any damage. Also a super inexpensive unit to hold pads. Remember that there is 5 of them so overkilling em won't wipe em out!

    You can call BS that's fine but I said soldiers meaning in all them not just Riflemen alone.

    I know I'm new but your logic is like saying if I said take so and so to level Titan to take out other units, you reply call BS cause Titan can't shoot air..... But how long to kill a Titan 1 minute? 

    Since right now my drones I have are level 11 doing 89 damage and not even 1k hp
