It's Sensei versus Sensei's evil Twin Brother, Snake eyes.

Ban : Infantry, Mech.
Ban :Artillery, Rockets, Piperunners
Ban: Bomber, Stealth, Fighter

Black Bombs might be your artillery, but it cannot be used until turn 17.

Lab unit is Mega Tank.

Oh yeah, it's 2000 credits or 1500 for a light battle.

Variation : Leave Komet Fighters in.

Variation 2: This might be interesting with a Sensei + tag.

Snake eyes? Black Bombs might be your artillery? Komet Fighters? Huh? Okay, aside from
these communication errors, I think you could be more creative with the base placement.
Also, working off this concept, I think you want to get rid of the rockets so that the
crazed infantry can fight it on their own for a while longer. Also, why are the infantry
teams not the same? And their positions are a bit random. I also suggest bases
surrounded by mountains or rivers to make it more infantry concentrated. Finally, the
pipes look ugly with everything a seam; just set some points. That said, I don't think
it's as bad as people seem to be rating it. For now, a six.

Haha! I love these terse responses.

The Chinese call their ICBMs their 'second artillery'. Anyway, I guess they are more like
cruise missiles....hmmm.

Anyway, thanks for taking the trouble with feedback, I think it just needs a play test. I might
randomise the back rank bases more.

ME-163 Komet, it's such a cartoon looking thing befitting this game, I thought. :-)

The idea was that rockets are banned so he was giving them one.

Playing sami is like bringing a knife to a tank fight, and it sure hell works!
