Now that it does not cloak building anymore, can we get a new unit that is cheaper and just have Radar Jammer?

So you are suggesting to keep the eraser, remove the sneaky pete and static/mobile morphing, and replace the pete with a cheaper, static radar jammer?

Just want a cheap static radar jammer, the way you do it does not matter.

Idunno, I never liked how easy it was to blanket an entire base in radar jammage in Balanced Annihilation. It was frustrating that you could have vast, sprawling bases that were radar-invisible. At least ZK's high price of Petes means that only tight sing-farms and the like will have total jammer coverage.

Besides, Jammers are graphically invisible, which is bad gameplay... and adding one more "field" effect would be even more graphical clutter for ZK. I'd rather see Jammers removed from ZK altogether.... replace the jammer on the Rector with a small cloakfield that only appears when the rectors aren't moving or something like that.

Sneaky pete still jams buildings. If you want it cheaper, I think you can turn off area cloak and will still jam units/buildings, but energy cost will be much lower. Another way is using Rectors.

Pxtl, long time i do not play BA so i my be wrong, but there was not many (or any?) spy/scout units in it, in ZK we have a lot of them (Flea, Jethro, Scythe, Dart, Dirtbag, Infiltrator, ATHENA, etc..), so i do not think it will be a problem was big was in BA.
And never seen some use radar jammer for singus, them are normally at back out of radar range anyway.

Skasi, i mean cheaper in metal cost.

Yea, Rector. If you really want a static one, terraform rector so it can't move. Comander's jammer module is much cheaper too.

Rector jammer area is a joke, but yeah now i need to com morph to lvl 2 (cause in lvl 1 i use E-Cell), just wanted a alternative to com module (and in the case that i wanted more that one jammer).
