ok, lets start it with Babbit ;)

the jetpack ability isn't all that special, it is the same as for nm jetpack warrior, but has wider range, no accident possibility, and 30 seconds cooldown

the other is quite interesting: whereas in the current version Babbit gets mobile suit model and better weapon at SEAS on lvl4/5 automatically (and still counts as a CHTR type unit) he will have a local upgrade (no matter which tribe the player has), which has 1 minute duration and costs 500w/500s, and when it finishes, the current hero gets replaced by a mobile suit, which is truly a vehicle type unit, has same armor, has better weapons/bigger attack range, considerably more HP, has the minigun and jetjump abilities (they are better than their respective counterparts), and has a 3rd ability (lvl5) which grants the mobile suit for 15 seconds armor piercing damage (1 minute cooldown) and this ability starts from cooldown when the mobile suit appears.
the suit itself gets the killcount from babbage, cooldown from Babbit's minigun and jetjump will be continued for counterparts, etc.

AND (big thanks to Scrat for the great idea) when exo suit gets destroyed, normal babbit pops out of from wreckage (destruction anim is replaced with a more realistic one (Babbit doesn't get be killed)), with 50% HP, (and again: cooldowns continue, killcount is transfered, etc.) and gives a cooldown for turning Babbit into exo suit (only after that can the upgrade be STARTED again)

just a reminder: if you have any questions, ideas or suggestions, please feel free to post it ;D
The Dustriders are nomads, who endlessly roam the parallel world with their tamed dinosaurs, which they use both as riding animals and as powerfull combat units, designed to strike fear into the hearts of their enemies.

Big thanks to MrMorgana for implementing what used to be a considerably great goal of mine. :)

Idea for suit: suit gets manufactured at HQ building, when it is ready it comes out, but is only usable when you assign your babbit to move toward it, “entering“ the suit and taking control. Would be more realistic than the armor just popping out around him. Is that possible?

hehe xD never enough, right? :D
that would be also a solution (quite hard to make though), but i actually more like having Babbit only once in the game, if the suit is produced separately, then it is again paradox
also adding an additional requirement (having HQ/any building) makes using this upgrade hard on custom maps w/o HQ, etc.

but its true that its also a bit underwhelming, so whatabout...
once the upgrade finishes, Babbit flies in to the skies (with jetpack on his back) and soon after that the exo suit (with jumpjet animation) descends to the land?

btw, a small showcasing of Babbit&Exo-suit (now he pops from from wreckage with same percentage of HP as he had before upgrade, and jetpack/jumpjet have only 30 seconds cooldown)

we can edit it, and then babbit will never be visible on exo suit's model :S
or worse (assuming that suit's model using normal babbit's skin) babbit would be unusable onwards

it didn't work when i first posted it (xfire bug i guess, i had to get a link for classic.xfire...) and still it takes some time to loaad (like 30-60 seconds...) but i can watch it though...

yes, Taslow can destroy the suit, but Babbit still lives on ^^

ok, let's continue from the other 'end of the spectrum' xD
Taslow:
  1. Teleport: teleports own and allied units in 30m radius around Taslow to a selected (own or allied) HQ. The teleportation takes 5 seconds (from activating the skill) to be done
  2. Rearm: (instead of Pinning shot) this resets the cooldown on the abilities of own and allied units in 30m radius (also on Taslow's own abilities, except for this one ofc ^^)

after such a long period of time, lets continue the project...
Ada:
  1. Sedate: can anesthetize any infantry unit (+ Stina and Miyagi), or make animal units sedated, so that their attack frequency is lowered
  2. Neuro-toxic darts: it replaces the projectile Ada uses in her normal weapon -> these do less damage and don't have armor piercing, but heavily reduce the targets sightrange and make them miss their attacks (25% chance) - it's a toggleable ability

Warden:
  1. Pet: Warden calls his favorite Allo into battle (good combat animal)
  2. Call of the Wild: it sets an animal unit of the enemy free, so that the animal would be under control of Gaia and it would act like a normal wild variety - great thanks to Adder for the splendid idea
