Maps with destructible features#694

I think having cover that you can destroy to change the map layout could lend itself to pretty interesting strategies

what if certain characters had this as their ability? it might become a serious strategy or you dont care about it and that sounds like a good idea. It would make sense to say Detonia could blow up soft cover if she hits it twice or so

If it became a unit specific thing then what if it were a way to give immobile units a niche? Dont know that a shotgun or Maximus guns would be able to easily destroy terrain but I definitely agree that Detonia grenades, something like missles or maybe even lasers might and those to me are what units would benefit from buffs

That could be a good way to do it. Maybe I’m over complicating it but there could be a tag tied to abilities or even units. Like detonias grenades have the “destructive” tag which means they can destroy certain terrain features. Or a turret can be tagged the same way meaning it’s regular attack does it. You’d probably want to give destructible terrain a health value as well
