What is Supremacy - Dev Blog

So is Harmony going to be Kaiju or something

Yes. The Xeno Titan is essentially a kaiju.

In my first game I'm going purity and purify the land from these punks and tree huggers.

According to Firaxis, yeah:


#1 Players who follow the Harmony Affinity will have a chance to use a “Xeno Titan” unit…which was described by Firaxis as “basically a Kaiju.”

This means pacific rim is a complete possibilty within the game.
Yes.

Yes.

Especially considering Supremacy's ultimate unit has been hinted to be a walker of some kind. With Purity you just have to settle for blasting them with the SHIELD heli-carrier on steroids.

I have a feeling that CBE warfare will be more concentrated on small amount of super-units with aid of the rest. If that's so, it could be interesting for 1UPT.

They already said about Purity and Supremacy, that one will focus on small armies with super-units and the other will focus on large armies.

Frankly I hope Supremacy won't have to be such aggressive... 'Put everyone's brains in jars even via force!' the development technology goes along general humanism :l

 

[awesome]

Looks like their final tank is floating, too.
Also, a lot of these units have red on them, just like the purity ones did (though it's harder to see on some of them), so at least in my mind, that further confirms that it's a faction color.

Very nice, I am surprised Kate didn't let us know though. Interesting tidbit about the Lone Wolf Perks: On the other hand, you can give up these perks for a “lone wolf” upgrade that buffs your unit when they are not next to anyone. You can live out your sci-fi alien-squashing fantasies by taking a lone wolf marine into the middle of an alien nest and open fire.

Also, this reinforces my belief about that little droid we were talking about earlier. It really does look like a shared lvl 1 and 2 unit, not like Supremacy or Purity lvl 3 and 4 units, and I am putting my money on it being a scout. Also, Supremacy infantry helmets don't look any smaller than the lvl one and two helmets.

And we get Harmony next week.

I wonder if all tier 4 cavalry will be floating.

Yeah, the lone wolf upgrade sounds cool. Actually, so does the bonus from being adjacent. I'm already starting to think of combinations to pull off.

I figure all three affinities can be aggressive but they seem more so in these previews that show unit art rather than things not related to the military
