I've set this link to never expire.

If we agree this is a problem, best idea I can come up with is adding AoE heal aura for barracks. Preferably it would be non-stacking aura because stacking auras sounds overpowered.

Garrisoning infantry inside barracks sounds incredibly tedious gameplay mechanic and I am definately against that.

But the normal sub isn't anything like a destroyer. It's not actually useful except for countering the enemy naval and a bit of vision. It can't do any damage over than that. This. If soviet player wins navy, he can't turn his naval victory into anything. He can't harass enemy ore fields near water...

This thread is a showcase of maps I have created for OpenRA. I mainly create 1v1 maps for RA and TD. My maps aim to be balanced and symmetrical. If you have any feedback, comments are appriciated.

I don't know how good migs are against allies naval right now, (I stick with yaks), but if they aren't so good, maybe they could be buffed to be able to counter destroyers with the proper micro of them? I am not a fan of adjusting mig vs destroyer balance for turning migs into a hard counter. My re...

For now, I will just briefly point out where the problem is. Why do you feel the need a unit equal to destroyer? I tell you: the thing that bothers all player in navy war is not really the navy itself. But rather the combination of helicopters + destroyers, while soviets can't combine planes + subs...

Oh wow that sounds like a very good bandaid fix. Would be awesome if it worked that way.

Not the biggest fan of the sub transport idea, especially having it carry a vehicle that makes no sense at all. Putting an MCV or a Mammoth into a Sub? lol. Theres no huge issue if it has a single infantry capacity but all in all I don't think it's really worth making a change like that since it re...

I totally agree with this statement.

I was expecting to be a fan of technology centers providing vision. However, I hate it because basically everything in RA has more range than vision. To me that is the most frustrating mechanic about the RA mod. Force fire battles and other things that come with it are not good gameplay features if ...

Thank you. By the way there is a major flaw in naval balance that hasn't been mentioned in this thread yet. Whenever a submarine or missile sub is finished from being built, it makes a sound your opponent can hear. My initial thoughts on changes. Hinds act as a sub counter worse than before so good ...

I don't know any pure naval 1v1 maps. I made one for testing early t1 naval balance and micro. I don't know modding so I can't make a version with Blackened edits.

Interesting. Most players I know honestly think allied navy is superior compared to soviet. I wonder if this different opinion is caused by different type of maps or different skill of players - or both.

Barracks - Cost: $500, up from $400 War Factory - Build-time reduction caps at 50% with 4 structures (100, 75, 60, 50) - Cost $1800, down from $2000 [OMnom - modified] I like the general idea of giving players more viable options in terms of build orders (mass barracks vs tech vs 2nd WF). But I won...
