the word "drone" fits even less than "missile" IMO

I'd just call it an AA bunker and let the player decide what they think they are #Tongue

Building looks cool, although more reminiscent of a missile silo

Aren't Surface to Air Missiles technically drones anyway? They operate without input once fired, so doesn't that qualify as a drone? They do have a highly complex navigation system in the nose cone.

It should be called: "What Aro Says It's Called Bunker"

I was actually serious when I posted. I like the idea of Nod having Atlantis-esque drones. It's so much more unconventional than missiles, which everybody and their freaking mother has.

I was serious when I posted too. Who actually cares? Is anybody going to call it anything else other than a SAM in-game? Name debates irritate me, especially when there is nothing wrong with the current name. It's a bunker, it fires Surface to Air Missiles. S.A.M. Bunker, right?

So far I'm on a roll for getting threads split. Any topic I touch suddenly becomes two.
