I have been toying with Atheorhaven's studly Shadow models, tweaking them a hair to my liking; resizing, etc. They ought to make pretty hefty AI's in my personal conquest campaign when done.
The big theory question is- before I "experiment' more, and botch things up AGAIN, is it possible to make a XIV (or whatever) phaser with a different texture, that would show up only for this race of AI? You know, give them their own weapon that shoots for little extra damage, and most importantly, has a different texture... that purple laser or whatever they shoot, there on the show.
Anyboy figure this possible? In the Weapons.gf, can I add a new weapon, totally renamed; or.. make a Myotronic Beam2, with "Unavailable for Refit" on it?
Heck if that'd work, I'll give little ones the Myotronic Beam2, and give that Battlecrab a Myotronic Beam3... with 18 damage! POW!
Thanks everyone....
