Prism Nova Custom Unit: Spy Plane

[Ryuu]

The spy plane is a unit type specific only to Kojuro's use. The said unit is developed to further Kojuro's need to keep an eye on the vicinity and to quickly detect any potential hostile forces approaching.

Since spy planes are not meant for combat purposes, these units do not have any armaments equipped. These planes are also significantly lighter and smaller than any aircraft built. The spy plane is meant for high-altitude reconnaisance, travelling at high speeds to cover a lot of ground and see the area below it.

Spy Plane (S. Plane)
Cost: 10000
MP: 9
Fuel: 99
Fuel Consumption: 1/space moved. Upkeep of 4/turn.
Type: Air
Vision: 5
Weapon: None
Special: Stealth
The Spy Plane is automatically engaged in Stealth mode starting on the turn that it is able to move. Unlike the Stealth unit, the Spy Plane does not suffer an increased fuel consumption in this way. Due to its high atmospheric flights, however, it cannot impede the way of enemy units. If an enemy unit is to occupy the space currently occupied by the Spy Plane, the unit's automatic programming will let it move one unoccupied space closer to the enemy HQ.
Limitations: Kojuro can only build this unit from a Machine Manufacturing Plant.
Armor: 150% damage received from Carrier, Fighter, and Missile. 100% damage received from AntiAir and Stealth.

I guess I should also say that constructive criticisms are welcome.

On paper it looks fine, but you could concievably be very cheap with this thing; invisible flying blockers FTW. Your opponent would be forced to build a $20000 Fighter just to eliminate your $10000 Spy Planes.

Invisible, flying meatshields?!? Inconceivable!

Thanks for bringing that one up, Stuffman. I would not have realized that if you did not bring it up.

I have made changes to how the Spy Plane works now, giving it a "coward" effect to keep it from meatshielding. It is also now targetable by the AntiAir unit.
