 I have sent a test mod to Hawk for:

Structure & Defense - HP
Defense - Damage they deliver, rate of fire, range

 OK I tested the Assist mod latest version with all 3 factions. Didn't notice any changes other than the tier one defenses getting upgrades, but that seemed to work well and I think it's a nice addition to the mod.

I have noticed that stormriders seem to fly in slo-mo sometimes with this latest version and the previous beta.

I'll test the TALON Mod and give feedback next.

 The TALON mod;

Buildings are about right. Maybe the conyards could be a little stronger but it took a lot more to destroy buildings and that is valuable time for a defending army, which makes it more of a challenge for the attacking army.

I didn't notice a big change in the defensive structures to be honest. They seemed a little stronger but they weren't tearing up units. Because they were stronger they seemed to inflict more damage because they were up longer, but they still need a quicker rate of fire. That is especially true for the AA turrets. I set 3 up by my base and stormriders one stormrider would fly towards them and then over them and past them before getting downed by three turrets. One turret should basically shred a small air unit before it even gets n top of an AA turret. Bomber might be able to drop bombs on a turret but they would sacrifice themselves in the act.

Special attacks like Orca Strike seem too weak still. I used one against a Scrin buzzer hive and they didn't destroy it. An Orca strike or equivalent needs to be able to take out a vehicle factory otherwise it's a waste of money using it really.

Overall I would say that the changes are a definite improvement but we still need to go further. Nice job so far. Can't wait to try the mods combined at some later stage!

 Redneck and I just played a game and the stronger buildings worked well. He attacked me with 2 waves of avatars and I took out about 30 in the end before the third wave came in (Whore!). The only reason I could put up a good fight was because my buildings gave me time to fight back with venoms.

If there was a unit cap and the defenses had better rates of fire he probably would have required to use beam cannons to break me down and buggies (which should also be buffed IMO against Air units).

Something to keep in mind is that if bases are overall tougher, then there should be a higher cost for the superweapons because it will be a lot harder to get to the superweapon. I would say make it cost $10.000. This will make superweapons less common and less annoying in game as well.

 I was thinking that with the buildings stronger and garrisonable like in the Assist Mod it will make things even better especially with the unit cap. Maybe give the conyard 3 garrisoning slots? If the defensive turrets all have their rate of fire doubled then we should be close!
