Well they aren't senseless, the Mastiff Fast Attack Vehicle is based off of and looks much like the NATO rapid responce vehicle in development. The Cerberus is based off of the American super light paradropable tank that they are developing.
But this is the wacky world of RA2.
If it was America vs Britain in the game, I would lean slightly towards the British because the Americans have no early tanks and hte British also have all those little harriers, but the Americans do have the great economic advanatage of their Harvesters and since hte StarBurst Tank is for all sides, the Harriers might have a few issues.
America dominates, just on land, that is until the Soviets begin deploying Apocalypse Tanks or the Chinese horde all those little RPG Troopers.
In a 50 Abrams vs 20 apocalyse tanks, I lost about 30 of my Abrams, plus the rocker tag on the apocalypse warhead makes the abrams fly like little dolls which was fun to watch until the splash damage began taking it's toll and I lost 2 to 4 Abrams per volly, lol, it was painful to watch that.
Anyone want on this mod? I have room for SHP, VXL editors, and I need people to do voices for new units(especially for the British, Russians, and Chinese).
And I'd like to have some people look at the huge balancing issues.
What the sides are goign to look like:
America: One word: Abrams, the premire tank, good economy with some older retrofitted tanks.
Britain: Harriers, the airpower of the game. they also have soem nice light raiders.
French: Big Guns, big turtles with a hard to crack shell. Cannon Camping to a new extreme..
Germany: Big guns and the strategic advantage of surprise with the ability to appear out of anywhere thanks to their chrono technology.
Korea: Alternative ways of attacking with subterranial units and air power.
Russia: Big Tanks with Big Tanks and airsupport, a good blitzkreig country
China: Conscripts and RPG troopers and airpower make this side uniquely Chinese. Plus they have a healthy mix of brain washing. The chinese is going to be fun with infantry because since their barracks is a defensive structure, that means its' under the defense structure tab as well as the normal build tab.
Iraq: Merged with Libya to create a nation with military solely based on special weapons and weapons of mass destruction.
Cuba: Fanaticism and long ranged attack makes cuba annoying.
