The red tide

the soviets have a abillety named this as i say in the guide, what it doeas is that it respawn all soviet infatry losses at the hq, 1 dead 1 respawn i presume. though it would be cool and cinda soviet like if it respawned 2 conscript squad for every dead conscript squad, though the other infantry is still 1 dead and 1 respawn, meybe make it cost some more manpower and the soviets have a new fun way of recruiting troops.  ;D

I like it!

Another idea is that the russians will recruit 2 squads of conscripts at the time, though only after a upgrade.

Lol 2 squads for every one dead, that would truly capture the spirit of the red tide. Up to devs though, especially in regards to balance

well two conscripts will come back. So you could loose the most valuable Russian inf in the game and get two conscripts back 

ya, and it's a new and fun way of recruiting conscripts :D

atm is it like you lose a guard squad u get 1 guard squad back

ur sugesting this
if you fighting tanks and you have at squads and you get conscrips back

how usefull is that ?!?

I was thinking everything is 1 dead squad gives 1 new squad except conscripts, which would be 1 dead squad gives 2 new squads.

like Polkovnik_Petr said, the odd one out is the conscripts that will re spawn with 2 squads.

The problem with AWM is that you can a lot of Heavy damdage tanks and than bomb them your self and get full health tanks for free, (you can even do this while you attack.) The Red Tide has the same problem, you can make 1 member squads in to 8 member squads. This is can be balanced out by a fairly high munition cost and as the idea is so cool it should not be chanced, but if you could make 1 squad into 2 squads, it will make heavy abuse possible.

Imagine a 4 vs 4 two hours camp fest where a russian player decide to blob 15 squads together and than bombe them himself.  :o
15 squads + full health and men for another 15 squads for the cost of a single ability. That is just insane. Theirfor this idea should not be put into the mod.

While I am at the topic, the 0 cap might be a problem in campy games, it might not be a problem for us, but many plaiers choose campy maps and spam units for hours, however cool it sounds to have a 1000 russans storm a german player, it might cause the game to crash.

If it is not possible to have the unit take up a half cap, you might want to put in a special man in every squad who take up 2 or 3 pop cap. Another and much better idea is to let the squad cost the 8 pop cap and give the Russians the possibility to buy a upgrade that allow for a larger pop cap.

I completely agree with what Savageworld just said.
I second the motion full of good sense :D
