Aircraft parts always had demo and were never required to be purchased. Am I misunderstanding you? If having engineers is important to you then add it to your strategy. I never found them all that important besides the fact they heal the ship they're in. I like how you purchased units in the second game.

What I mean is in a ground/space battle. Aircraft will dominate the battlefield without some anti-air units ( demolitions ), and turret repairers (engineers.

That goes without saying but that could just be part of the ground struggle.

Well I guess what I'm trying to say is: If they allow us to not have the base units, it will either lead space-ground battles to be too hard without them, or too easy with them.

But AA units and engineers aren't base. The regular trooper is base/general unit. There could be AA emplacements which could take out the aircraft and engineers aren't really necessary, if you lose a turret that's your fault and again part of the struggle and realism.

Although I agree with you to some extent, do you honestly believe that some fleets in the republic didn't have engineers or demolitions? I don't know, building turrets was always unrealistic (a surefire gamemechanic) but still.

I thought we were talking about the unbalance of ground battles? As for space, I don't really need anymore then one troop. Although putting all of the ground units in space would be neat.

Same thing applies do you really think any ground force was without demolitions and engineers? I was talking in general though.

Well no but that's the fun of GGC. It adds more strategy.

why waste the effort?

Halo Wars is RTS and is really easy to use with the controller.

I meant the way that you set up and manage your fleet/troops in the planetary view, only adjusted to Battlefront's style. Not literally turning it into an RTS.

Your right. Just the galactic conquest part but not the battle should be RTS.
