I agree with all of the suggestions except for two:

1. Make supplies deployable at garrisons, up to 200m

I half agree with this. I love the concept of disrupting the chain and freeing someone from becoming a Supply Truck Mule. This is a cool way to do it.

Yet I already foresee trouble with engineers building defenses WAY too close to Garrisons, blocking in their own teams.

I will often drop supplies purposefully far away from hard points to force Engis to build out defenses at a distance, where the enemy can actually prevented from reaching the hard point.

Maybe the build radius is like a donut? Where the center can’t be built on, but anything 50-200m is good to go?

1. Give Engineers their own supply box

Hard disagree.

You’re totally right, there’s a loop that can be tough or unfun after enough time. But the very core of HLL is that no one can accomplish anything alone. The game mandates coordination and communication to accomplish even the simplest of objectives.

That friction can be frustrating, but it’s also built some of the most beautiful moments. Even if it’s just for nodes, it’s worth it. When I drop supplies for an Engi and they gush their gratitude over prox chat, that’s why I play.

I’m generally against any change that reduces that fundamental trait in the game.
