@Inq, Suggesting your idea about re-arming, the APC can be given a burst shot fire with a set reload timer in between the burst shots if that is a path to explore. (Though I can test that personally with a few quick games) I was actually referring to Orb's comment about Orca spam, the spam not bein...

I think removing AA from the APC is not an option. I played one game of it with Gannon and it swiftly turned into orca spam. Aircraft are powerful, and anti air defenses are difficult to use with 1 MCV play. In my opinion, what would produce the best gameplay is to have APCs beat buggies, and humve...

Wow, those look really crisp! :) I'll see if they fit in, but it looks good from first glance. Could you rename it to "Flak Trap"? I hope you didn't pirate some random pic from the web so I can actually use those ;) The ones I have now are home-made from scratch. Done, also fixed a mistake. They ar...

Cool ideas,

I got bored & made new icons for the units, you want them?

Actually thinking of what Westwood did with Tanya, (Tanya to both factions), is that they were willing to artificially double-up units for the sake of multiplayer balance. That's distinct from artificially switching units for the sake of multiplayer balance. So rocket troops to both sides would be ...

but it still has some dependencies to the RA mod it's based on This is straightforward to handle with the SDK. Just make sure that you keep INCLUDE_DEFAULT_MODS="False" in your mod.config and then copy the parts of the RA mod that you want to include into a ra directory in the SDK mod directory. Ag...

For the "two different Longbows" idea... https://i.imgur.com/rETeKIj.gif this looks dopee.. if anything I really wouldnt mind this option.. simple and effective. The problem with this solution is these 2 longbows are basically identical. If I'm playing against allies how can I make a split second d...

While I fit Blackened’s description of an offline player that tinkers with skirmishes. My 2 cents would be you guys are going about balancing the game the wrong way. From my perspective the whole concept Westwood was going for was asymmetrical warfare. Yup, the soviet navy sucked... but so did the...

Yeah, pretty much... it’s a straight palette swap, they even left a couple pixels the wrong colour.

For the "two different Longbows" idea... As I understand it, the Longbow was an upgraded type of Apache. So standard Apache at tier 2 and Longbow at tier 3? I use both in my mod, The telltale of a (Apache) Longbow is the dome on the top. https://bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com/elpasoinc.com/co...

Thank you! Worked perfectly! To see if I could replicate this I tried to give Nod a Radar Dome instead of a commcenter. So I extracted a sprite from (Documents/OpenRA/Content/ra/v2/lores.mix) and an icon from (Documents/OpenRA/Content/ra/v2/lores.mix). I put those in the bits folder. Then I opened ...

You sir are a hero! However, the game encountered a fatal error and crashed so something must be wrong. Dunno what and I don't have enough knowledge to determine what's wrong. The only difference I can see is that the pasted text, provided by you, is all in blue whilst the original text of the yaml...

I'll give 10$ to whomever wrights an extensive tutorial/guide on this. I'll pay the money if I'm by following the guide is able to get the medic into TD with voice and all. The guide need to detail everything. You will recieve the money through paypall. Not writing an extensive guide, but this is a...

You could just change it so that sonar pulse is gained from infiltrating either the conyard (or maybe radar?) or the subpen?

Perhaps drop the price of a Sub to $850? (I think the RA original Russian discount price was $855)
