New experimentals for Supreme Commander 2

SUPCOM2 thumb 2

Supreme Commander 2 is getting the first game's mighty Monkeylord experimental spiderbot as a DLC unit. But that's not all. Gas Powered say there'll be other experimentals in the DLC, and if you dig around in the game files, you'll find references to not only the Monkeylord, but 13 other new units and 8 new maps - including two 8 player ones. Some of the new units sound fun, like the Experimental Shield Destroyer, while others are just weird at this point. Experimental Unpacking Cannon? Here's the full list.
