DOUBLE NATION PACK: REDS is live + patch (v.7270)

[icehawk308]

Honestly I just hope Eugen has someone constantly looking at the unit and deck bugs & generaly paying strong attention to the bug/balancing thread thats up there.

That I still cant create a Cat C Israeli mech deck due to only 3 cards of base M113s in DECEMBER is a little
Yug Mech deck missing any helicopters choices, tons of other minor things that could be easily resolved if only someone is Paying Attention to our crowdsourcing effort

Compare POL to FIN and cry, especially the air tab...

I know man, I know. This is what a typical Baltic Front 1v1 air-tab looks like



Really makes you feel sorry for that poor poor Poland, having to do all the work!

* PGZ-95 time between missles reduced from 6 to 2sec
* Z-9A HJ-8 price decreased from 70$ to 60$

* NEW ZTZ-88B added, as ZTZ-80's successor.
* NEW ZTZ-88A added, as ZTZ-88B (not a typo)'s successor. Set as proto.

Uh, so... that's it?

At least this validates the position that I've held since the beginning: That there were no big N. Korean buffs lurking in the shadows, waiting for SOVKOR to die off. B-5 is still two cards. The NK MiG-29 is still stuck with dreadful short-range missiles. No infantry Konkurs to speak of - all the things that would supposedly come to pass never did.

Of course, I'd really rather have preferred to have been wrong.

China is no better off. Some may disagree, but I think that the change to the Su-27SK actually constitutes a nerf. There's two new tanks, but it's up in the air as two whether they'll actually become a lasting part of gameplay, as none of the other glaring issues are left unaddressed (line infantry, support, etc.).

*
* Hawks HP increased from 5 to 10 and some had a speed of 25 instead of 35
* Chaparral HP increased from 5 to 10

I'm honestly more than a little baffled by this. This just expands the current Patriot problem - high-tier AA just walking away after it get hit in the face with arty.

Oh, and the Pon'gae 2 is still 5 HP. So much for NK buffs...

*FRANCE:
* VBL Mistral availability increased from 4 to 6
* both AMX-10 RC versions frontal armor increased by 1, RoF increased to 9RpM
* AMX-10 RC SB range increased from 2.100 to 2.275m
* ERC-90 Sagaie RoF increased fom 7 to 10Rpm
* AMX-30B2 & Brennus optics increased to medium
* Super Etendard turn radius improved from 400 to 350
* Tigre HAP & HAD price reduced from 110$ to 100$

Didn't expect this, but I'm not unhappy; lots of big buffs to my Eurocorps deck. AMX-10 SB might be a bit overbuffed, but I'm not complaining.

JAPAN:
* Mitsubishi Chu-Mat price increased from 20$ to 25$

Is it really worth 25 pts for 21 AP / 2450 m range? I'm not sure that it will be competitive with the Milan 3 at that price.

Thank you so much for the North Korea changes. I'm in tears seeing strella's on DPRK armor.

[mvp7]

Wasn't the Su-7B SEAD plane also added to CSSR in this patch?

[Versedhorizon]

Because its not in the patch notes I thought I'd point out that the Chonma-ho V got shadow nerfed from 2 cards to 1.

[Shrike]

Yugo makes me sad because It has a lot of cool stuff that reminds me of the exluded RD units.

[rex88]

Grateful to Eugen, all things considered. As usual.

Well it's a prototype tank, so that's nothing crazy.

So, where have all the guys gone, who expected huge changes after sovkor removing. Any comments from them?))
