Hmm, nice. Any chance you can make it into a sandbag wall?
Would be a bit like those units in C&C Red Alert, building sandbags around themselves. :D

Sidenote: Shield is spelled with ie. ;)

Is this your mod contest entry? Shield is spelled wrong.

HAHAHA.
I just love how people's most misspelled things are the things that must have the I before the E.

Meh, maybe a DL?

Gotcha, those were GI's, in Red Alert 2.

This mod looks neat, DL.

Hmm... I was thinking this would be safer than the roadblock bomb, since the principle is the same, but the cover is smaller. I'll try it and see how often firing it ends up in a suicide.

@leadpumper12: ?...

@metalchao: hmm, that never happened to me. how'd you throw it?

PS:try having it held by a character while the character exits a rocket, my game shuts down when i do it.

I should probably have thrown it further and not upwards.
I only died once while using it.

It isn't very effective cover against non-vanilla activities though. >_>

I would assume he means it gets destroyed quickly by stuff that isn't from Base.rte

This might just be me, but it just looks like a grenade that gibs into an object :sad:

But I'll give you credit, this is a creative idea :smile:

(I'll download and see if my suspections are correct later)

you're right mind i couldn't get a shield to gib right, then i realized that a big bomb would work just as well.
