Hi!
I am new to the forums but I have been playing CW for a long time. I recently finished the latest game, Arc Eternal, and have just moved onto the map making and the coding. I was wondering whether anyone had made or could make a Bertha cannon that fires large amounts of AC. I am convinced that that would be awesome.

Map #259 has one already (which cannot be aimed.) Making one that is aimable shouldn't be too difficult. Making it buildable is a slightly different story.
Welcome!
I have a scriptable cannon in my custom map: Tiger's Nest #227
Download it to get the script and alter it to fire AC instead of Creeper.
Thanks for your answers!
I'll try out those maps but how do I edit them? I've already seen one wiki post but I can't manage to do it.
Download the map, open up the creeperworld3 folder, open up colonialspace, then maps, then 200, then copy 259.cw3 to a new folder in creeperworld3 > WorldEditor titled Tiger's Nest.

I think that would actually theoretically be very easy: assuming one is fine with not having normal Bertha's. One could simply have a core look for Berthas, and if one is built, replace it with the special CRPL unit AC bertha.
If one also wanted to keep normal Bertha's, than having a core on the field that one could use to "Upgrade" a bertha to an AC one as an optional choice is also an option.
perhaps you should try the same thing that someone did several times: have a custom CRPL core that can move on the map that requires construction of certain units on it to build other custom units. I think it was formerly the one that activated unique pyramids that were not Apexian.
