I miss Red Tide's old function.

It was awesome. Now I only get Stahfynie squads... I loved using Red Tide to rush and then replenish. I could always count on a potential comeback with that ability. Why was it nerfed anyway? Were people abusing it?

I think the balance team sort of saw it as a "useless" ability due to the fact you simply rushed the enemy and got new squads. You lost vet and chances are you dont actually accomplish anything . In any "higher lvl" game I doubt that your opponent would simply rush everything at you in hopes that all of his squads would die .

I have a question. WHy does the Red Tide abilty cost 200 muni? Shouldn't it cost MP? Who has 200 muni to spend when you're propaganda doctrine?

It's like you pay ammo and you get manpower like the ability in blitzkrieg doc.

pretty much indeed. If you have lots of munitions and are in desperate need of manpower you can just call extra squads to hold the line. Very useful.

The ability was too overpowered, when hundreds of infantrymen were dying and getting replenished for free. Even US Alied Warmachine from armoured company gives you up to 2 tanks.

No the ability was senseless.

In a game against human players you lost if you sacrifice your vetted troops. No good player will do that.

Maybe you don´t know that there is a retreat button? It is the exclamation point in the userbar of the unit or the hotkey "T" 

Other than that i think we can close this topic

Anytime now, although it is sad that Stahfynie troops cannot use firebombs.

Red tide was a useless function. Not only would you lose troops but their hard earned vet and upgrades. You don't get those back with a mass sacrifice.

End of Discussion.
