Although i would love to see this, it will never happen.
It will probably need a huge rewrite in the engine and this isn't something that will be done.

Chimera needs a rocket trooper. That would fix the early game.

Well said!

Sorry to put it this way, but:
FUCK YEAH!

What's the use of that if it dies against 2 shots from a rocket trooper? Should it win 1v1 or not?

The puma is terrible indeed. Not sure about your suggested changes, but it surely can use some love. I wouldn't mind a slight hp buff so it can survive 2 rocket shots.

I'd rather have a scout unit instead of 6 infantry. 6 units is quite a lot early on with the potential of trowing the game in a grid lock right from the start. At least you have the choice to be somewhat aggressive now. I fear that aggression will be totally eliminated when you get 6 units (and thus...

It feels better for sure. The pathfinding of some (usually large) units in a small area give some hick ups at times though. Definitely an improvement though.

A step in the right direction for sure!
Curious to see how much this will impact the 'dead period' in the early game.

Nice.
Create a mod and go play it against the AI.
