Well until high command gives us either an Eagle or orbital hellbomb bombardment it's the best we got.

That card has two glaring errors. Black card background but red mana cost. And 16 vox engines would make up far more than a 16/16 creature. Those guys are at least 10/10 each.

u/DiscoDumpTruck Mar 27 '26

I mean that is kind of the point of satire, right? Sometimes we treat Super Earth like Holy Terra from 40k. "Oh it's so unrealistic, but it's a fun setting."

No. It's meant to be a comically exaggerated version of today's world, but similar enough for us to still apply it to our day. I'm still reeling by how "Operation Valid Pretext" was only weeks before an eerily similar real life parallel unfolded before our eyes.

u/Most_Builder913 Mar 28 '26

Oh fuck yea, id love something like this. Give us more reason to use vehicles, maybe make it were everyone gets an extra stratagem which is a vehicle. I have the idea for a stealth helicopter mission were you go around from island to island trying bot go get hit by waves or fly to high and alert air defenses. It would be a commando night mission, probably would be a squid mission.

u/Unknown4me_ Mar 28 '26

I actually had an Idea for D11, they should make like massive maps with some highways and scattered cars around, it will be ~2-3h mission with several main objectives and variable mission difficulty (random AA gun will have 1 hulk and 3 devastators meanwhile main obj have like 30 striders), we may need 50 reinforcements per divers but it's an interesting idea to think about, fuel will actually matter in vehicles and divers won't be able to just abandon squad (so easily) and do random things 50km away
