I have to say that I am in 2 or more minds about this.
First of all, I love animals so for me furries are great. Tigrans are my favorite aow3 race. It makes me a bit sad that this NPC faction pretty much rules out the possibility of a therian full player faction. There is so much potential in the use of animal traits in units. What about a mole (tunneling/landmines), a kangaroo (giant leap/boxing), a ram (ram), a sloth (well, ok, not a sloth).
I like these units but some things not so much.
- Prowler should not be tier 1. I hope it will be buffed to t2 status. It is the werewolf of planetfall. Werewolves should be powerful, not cannon fodder. It should not be at the same power level as your most basic infantry or scout.
- Bouncer looks fun and interesting.
- Sharpshooter looks good
- Chemist looks weird. There have been many complaints about the squirrel guy. I too am slightly disgruntled. Not because it is a small tier 3 unit, that's fine. Not because it is a squirrel but because I thought it was a skunk! In one of the previous screenshots I saw this unit's icon and thought "ah, a skunk, ok, it will probably throw some gas bombs, stuff like that." So now it turns out the unit does throw gas bombs but ... it is a squirrel. This does not make sense to me. It should be a skunk! Please make it into a skunk.
- Apex is great, or would have been great without the antlers. I think this is a bad design decision. Please reconsider. T4 anthropomorphic lion = Awesome.
T4 anthropomorphic lion with antlers = silly.
I don't complain much or often but I felt like I needed to share my opinion here. After all, as a community we are helping a little bit to shape the game.
Over all, I know I will be very happy with Invasions
