What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
- Add a CI warfund Gas grenade called "Mustard gas"
- CI would get 4 grenade's from the airdrop and it would cost 1.2 million warfunds
- Mustard gas would do 20 damage per second, make you see yellow and make your screen blurry. in chat it would say "You feel as if you cant breath, each breath causes a sharp pain in your lungs. You feel blisters spreading across your skin."


Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
N/A

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2)
CI feels less underwhelming compared to other factions
CI would have a better counter against getting swarmed
Encourages the use of the gas mask more.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Could be very strong against large groups of people
CI Buff

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I believe that this would give CI a leg up against other factions that may have better equipment than CI has. It would allow for CI to counter big pushes of people that just respawned and arent fully ready to fight them head on.

in most raids against CI, Nu7 just uses the tank and CI cant really counter it for the most part. They could also just ware gas mask since thats the point of it.

+Support on the general idea, but that dps is way too high. I also do think that it would probably cause issues with their base layout as it is, but that shit's already impossible to raid, so I'm not sure how much difference that's actually going to make

I don't think this would be good due to the fact it would allow CI to even better hold the single corridor that is their base.

Firstly, the only counter to this is a gas mask that is on a 5 minute cooldown on a dispenser. Lets say these 4 grenades are used exactly as any rational person would think to use them (to stop a push against a CI hold of an area of the foundation *insert one of 50 funnel points here*) then this may very well extend a CI hold by upwards of 20 minutes.

Secondly, 20 damage per second? Is this meant to be CI nerve gas?

And to this point, you do have a counter. It's called the M202, a weapon you was given do be directly used against the tank. Also, you guys have bomb drones. Where's Nu7s signal disrupters?

I feel this suggestion may well fit the USA server climate, I hear its pretty rough for CI over there. But on UK? I'm sorry for my bluntness but this will quite literally destroy us.
 
From Wikipedia:
Exposure to mustard agent was lethal in about 1% of cases. Its effectiveness was as an incapacitating agent. The early countermeasures against mustard agent were relatively ineffective, since a soldier wearing a gas mask was not protected against absorbing it through his skin and being blistered.

It should definitely not have nearly so much damage. I'd say more like 1/second for as long as you're in it and for a few seconds afterwards, and only hazmat suits should protect against it. Should cause severely blurred vision (maybe not if wearing gas mask, but I don't believe that's currently possible to have different effects like that), maybe blindness after a certain amount of time. I like the idea of that chemical, but the one you've described doesn't seem to fit how mustard gas actually works, and both the original idea and this altered one probably would cause problems if it was commonly available like that. I think the addition of a chemical like this would be good, but not implemented in the way the original post describes.

I think this would be a good idea, however as Finii stated, Red Phosporus Grenades exist. I feel like it would make it (At least on CI's side) absolutely nonexistent. I think an already made cost-effective thing such as Phosporus Grenades is a good balance so people don't just use the free "mega-money" system to get around using money for combat advantages.

we still have to airdrop the gas grenades in tho and i know CI on US wouldnt already have some ready. UK might be on that tho idk
 
You don't need warfunds for ALL your combat advantages though. There are some things you could use outside of that so they dont feel meaningless.

If you feel the need that needs to be that way, then I feel like you're 100% overlooking the PvP aspect that has a bit of balance.

War funds' primary purpose is to be used for all combat advantages, tho, and what do you mean by "there are some things you could use outside of that so they don't feel meaningless"?
