I must say, in spite of the funny colour, the Banshee does look nasty.

"Actually one would think that if you build any renegade structure then all of the structures should be renegade. It would not make sense to be able to mix them. In fact it should probably be establish when the city is placed on the map."



Makes sense as an option for campaigns and story maps (one that might not even be used in all cases - I don't see any reason that, if the original campaigns are updated for the expansion, they would lock you into the originals for any town other than Haven), but multiplayer maps should give you the choice. As is, in fact, building one upgrade structure allows you to buy *both* upgrades at that level (though I'm sure it's possible to disable one of the two via scripts, that's too useful a function to leave out especially since it will surely have a role in the campaigns).

:lolu:

Considering their previous work into storyline elements, that WOULD be an extensive advance in the storytelling and mapmaking tools! ;)

I will give Nival props for the better storyline in HoF...but, depending on who you ask, that may not mean much...

I've seen plenty of those story textboxes in-game. What textboxes are missing?

The ones that progress the storyline maybe? I have seen few in the campaigns and nothing special at that.
I, for one, am dying to find out what colour they paint Michael's toenails.
