[1.4.0.0] The Red Tide

[RedGuard]

resource blitz isn't signaled upon activation, you're correct. but blitz doctrine as a whole is fukd and needs to be reworked dont get me started on that. whole other discussion

like 1 CP blitz nades which are now obscene

So back to the topic...

you should've been set up if he can amass an army of cons, TH's and NI you should've had more than 3 STUHs

How could you have known that? That's exactly the thing I did.

[RedGuard]

unless you were making a lot of mistakes and losing stuff, the numbers led me to that conclusion

4 conscripts = 896MP
2NI=720mp
2TH=560mp
total = 2176MP LOL

so that blob cost over 2,176MP - wehr needs but a tiny fraction of that to utterly annihilate a mindless blob of infantry

im watching the replay now

Post Merge: May 29, 2011, 11:05:45 PMNow its clear why you lost, it had nothing to do with the red tide. you never retreated MG teams even when down to 1 man and NO health, you let them die why? you built 8 Mg teams probably more

I stopped watching after your teammate started driving his AC's into AT guns like they weren't there

sloppy play

Didn't you see that my MG's and pak's were always killed by those sniperteams?

[Desert_Fox]

I'm downloading the replay...I wanna see that giga-blob slaughter.

[Walentin 'Walki' L.]

It's not that big. I just thought the units at the middle VP were from the player on my side :p.

[S1lv3rWolf]

If only we could use CoHO features in the current game, the little icons under the units would've been great to use.

EF's Red Tide and CoHO's Infantry Attrition seem to be very close, but in CoHO it is literally put up as being Allied War Machine for Infantry (so lower cost, but a max number of infantry).

Under Red Tide, I see no problem with limiting the number of infantry, if the weakest units die first, then the commander that used the ability either used it wrong, or the enemy commander made the smart choice by targeting them first.

Well, since no one ever going to touch this and many other "sacred cows" of wehrmaht (one word - "vanilla", it says it all), I see no point in nerfing RT, since it never been, nor is OP, especially compared to wehrmaht abilities.

[GodlikeDennis]

Assault nades are disgusting and need a massive nerf. They should go back to the old days of no stun but good damage. Stun is incredibly lame and abusive.

Hands up anyone who ever goes down the RHS of blitz. Nobody? Didn't think so.

Red tide doesn't need nerfing at all. This thread has reached its end I think. An effect will be added next patch, that is all.

Good last post.
