Ion Cannon as a weapon

Heboy · 01-18-2003, 10:18 AM

Alright, I know that it is impossible to add in a new super weapon, or so I've heard. Anyways, what I want to do is add in a new 'weapon' that looks exactly like the Ion Cannon from TS. I would like to be able to put this weapon on a tank if at all possible as well. However instead of putting it on a tank, I am going to give this weapon to a building and mess with the ROF and such to make it a lot like a new super weapon. I have seen the Ion Cannon given to a tank as a normal weapon before, so I know it can be done. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

ooh, a robot side...theres could be a good story line to it an all...(soviet/yuri assaulted an allied base and messed around with their tech centre or robot control centre and thing went horribly wrong and now the robot centre has gone haywire and is building the allies secret weapon (a robot with a mind of its own) (could be a hero unit?) and it has started an army etc etc
