Faction design differences
Legion units carry a noticeably different visual language compared to the Total Annihilation lineage that Armada and Cortex follow. Players familiar with the original titles find the faction contrast jarring. The design choice reflects creative direction rather than a development oversight. Legion serves as a third faction with unique mechanics while maintaining gameplay balance parity with the other two.
Players submitting criticism without constructive alternatives face a familiar response. Feedback needs to suggest alternatives or explain specific problems to influence development direction.

Submitting design feedback properly
