Re: Let's talk about F-117 and MIG-31
As I stated in my previous comment. I don't feel the F-117A is overpowered at all. I don't like that it's 2 per deck. It's not uncommon to see 3 or more in a 3v3 or 4v4, that doesn't feel particularly legitimate to me as it should be relatively rare (ie 1 per deck). I might want to restate: I DON'T ...

Re: Let's talk about F-117 and MIG-31
No doubt the Mig-29 is an amazing plane. It's always has been IRL. The Hornet has the edge in tank busting though. I agree about the F-117, it's not that it's overpowered. I think it's under-priced and 2 per deck feels excessive. I wouldn't mind seeing it @ 180-190pts and being limited to one. It's ...

Re: Large towns/cities - disappointing
Why drive into a city when you can basically ignore it an kill the enemies logistics/artillery instead? I've actually found artillery very ineffective for removing infantry in buildings - i've found using an F117 to aoe bomb a location far more effective. Edging armour closer with good recon is ano...

Re: [Suggestion] Campaign Difficulty + Playstyles
I agree with the tone. I like the 20 minute time limit and would like to see it stay. It would be much, much better have a more persistent battlefield, where units take up points and are deployed in the same spot over days. Currently it feels like you have to start over AND you have the gamey elemen...

Re: Large towns/cities - disappointing
The new maps are much more urban. There's a 3v3 that has a very large town in the dead center. Most people simply avoid it and fight around the other areas. Big towns are extremely hard to fight in. You tend to just get bogged down and neither side can push properly. Welcome to urban warfare I get ...

Re: Can we please get create deck for A.I?!?!?
The AI counters your play style.
See I deploy lots of AA and infantry, I come up against nothing but flame tanks and arty spam.
The AI knows what you are deploy, be prepared for your weakness.

Re: Favorite Dynamic Campaign events?
Impossible to tell. I can see no visible effects of the events and nothing in the text even remotely tells me what it means. So they literally pretty meaningless IMO. There needs to be some text that explains what the event DOES (or even what it could POSSIBLY do). Without that, it's just flavor te...

Basically what went wrong.
Total destruction with unlimited time is a bit of a stupid 'because we can' game mode. Your going to see all kinds of dumb things, just like 10v10.

Re: Another gripe about the campaign...
I have posted on the time limit in other threads, I think its silly and to short. To those that say its supposed to force a draw and is part of the game dynamic. I say how does that work when you miss the points score by 5 and have a kill ration of 10:1 It becomes a ridiculous game mechanic when th...
