A lot of players noticed that USA had no artillery in the begining and it was hard to take out enemy defenses. To the other hand, China and GLA had Inferno cannons, Mortar Buggies and other long range units that allowed them to have more success in the begining. Now this disballance is fixed. USA now has AMOS artillery.

AMOS is available since the very begining and requires War Factory only. Cost is $950. Light armour. Low speed. Average firepower. Range is not too long, but enough to take out basic defenses. Additionly it can tansport 2 soldiers.

Will this unit be used by ALL usa factions? or will some still have unique artillery?

Don't worry... GLA has lacked little to nothing in offensive power, and will be getting an overhaul on defense. I know I have plans for GLA and Creator most likely does too. As always we will most likely share content to make sure both mods get what they need.

the weapon range doesn't change... its likely a vision range issue. Also, keep in mind, the AI gets lots of pasive bonuses based on dificulty, range or vision on AI units could be tweeked for dificulty, this making it seam like your units are weaker on defense.

Between now and the next polished release there should be very little new art work done. Instead the focus is on designing, testing, and fixing. the mod has always been so close to finished that its nearly criminal. I'd love to see this through to the end with a real community effort.

Relax. GLA will have a lot of improvements too.

Will be used by Cyber and Super Weapon generals. Laser general will have his own laser artillery. Air Force general have no need of such unit (IMO).

the weapon range doesn't change... its likely a vision range issue. Also, keep in mind, the AI gets lots of pasive bonuses based on dificulty, range or vision on AI units could be tweeked for dificulty, this making it seam like your units are weaker on defense.

In my AI computer does not gain range or vision bonuses. It gets rank bonus only (gains ranks faster).

lol not all american's share the "American view", but your right that SOME have that problem.

Don't let a few loud people overshadow the fact that there ARE good americans. Myself, Rosco, Stack, and Shandriel are all americans that don't suck... and I'm sure that even on Revora we're not the only ones.

Its just the game. Did you know that the vehicle represented as "Microwave Tank" in game is Russian Zoopark-1 radar in reality? Did you know that the tank represented as "Crusader" in game is German Leopard-2 in reality? Why can't I add one more unit in such style?
