I dont feel it so heavy as you do, but it does feel like with Soviet I have got little tactic possibilities. With Allies after 5-10 mins I can drop engineers everywhere with a ranger (that people dont expect) and the helicopter allows you to move angineers and tanya everywhere. To me it really feel...

I've seen plenty of players play France; mostly because it allows them to create fake radar domes as to prevent the enemy from destroying the real one therefore stopping an arty push they are doing at that point. I think that its appealing as it is but players just haven't experimented enough to cre...

Placement of ore piles and oil derricks encourage expansive and interesting play! Especially towards the center of the map; would recommend playing.

Soviet cheese aside

Hey, flamer rushes are a completely valid tactic

Or maybe there should be less small maps and more big maps with spawns far away!

While playing as both allies and soviets I dont think ive ever been in a match where flak trucks have defeated artillery apart from in circumstances where you are also doing something else such as harassing ore harvesters with migs. You haven´t? I see that happen all the time especially efficient i...

I don´t think it´s a good idea to give soviets an AA boat/sub because it is intended that Allies should have naval advantage. I would say that Soviets have a massive naval advantage due to their subs being so damn effective and the allies boats being.... er.... kinda rubbish vs navy. The Allies´ Gu...

FlakTruck is good for counter arty IF they aren't protected by competent infantry groups. I usually use Yaks to spot and blast artilleries from air, but yeah...

We could nerf the artillery attack to be effective against infantry and buildings (like it is right now) but chickenshite against armored vehicles (medium tanks, heavy tanks, flaks...). I also think that the delaying time of the arty should be increased a little bit more, so the arty gets the same ...

. The range swap is needed because Allies close combat is weak, they need the range advantage. And yes, what's the difference of V2 sniping buildings (for allies) because they currently could do that faster with their arty? I think instead of trying to change these two around they should be nerfed ...

Arty really is the hot topic at the moment... Why not just keep the ownership but swap the ranges? I was told V2 rushes used to break the game with their better range and alpha. It would be even more infuriating than arty at the moment. Fair enough - id like to see what the game would be like witho...

and then buff them , so they are more equal to flamethrowers

Why not just keep the ownership but swap the ranges?

So the other night, I played allies against 3 soviet RushAI's on a medium sized map. Very difficult battle but I won. Tonight, I played Soviets against 3 Allied AI's and lost miserably. I couldn't even leave my base. I tried it against 2 Allied AI's, absolutely still got stomped even though I laste...

Finally had a good enough match that is cast-worthy:

Quite a long match but has quite a few back and forth battles - enjoy

all come down to who ever gets the first nuke Some truth to that. But first nuke(s) can win it for you on a lot of maps quite a bit of the time anyway. If I'm playing someone that I know rushes nukes then I have a couple of options. Firstly, I could rush an attack and try to take them out way befor...
