Fobos should do friendly fire

[FunkOff]

I just watched the recent JaggedAppliance cast. Nexus lost his ACU to Blackhearts fobos spam when some of his Fobos ran into Nexus' ACU and stopped him. If the Fobos had friendly fire - which it should because it's artillery and it seems like most artillery does - then some of the shots which hit Nexus' acu would have killed the fobos that blocked his path and allowed him to escape.

It makes sense that if you use T3 artillery to shell an enemy position while you send in your tanks, suffering friendly fire from such a bombardment is a matter of due course. So... all the mobile t1 arty should do friendly fire.

Anything that nerfs UEF is good for this game.

Allowing T1 arty friendly fire would cause every T1 army in the game to completely melt itself as soon as it enters combat

Those aren't fobos, why specify the fobo when you mean all T1 arty?

Somebody correct me, but aren't Cybran the "overplayed, good in too many situations" faction?

They are. FOBO = Floating lOBO = Zthuee

It's usually whatever faction you lost your last ladder game to
