It is good- but it already has shorter range than sniper. Balance would have it that the sniper should be able to match the virus. BWE.

[OmegaBolt]

The Virus has longer range than the sniper always, especially when elite. Having only a deployable Sniper which got a longer range will make it adequate. In any case, the Allies are all about turtling and hiding away in sand bag foxholes.

I fully agree with OmegaBolt with regard to missile trails and deployable snipers.
However, I believe that the Virus has a naturally short range than the sniper in YR.

[cdmtx(YR)]

Virus and Sniper having a deployed position so that they shoot farther. GGI with cooler missiles (color them or something- plain white trails isn't doing it for me)

All I can think of ATM.

The Sniper will be able to the deploy. As for Virus by already did some work on her and I'm quite happy with her. I am making missiles more unique, so your not just seeing a white line across the screen.

Virus gun range is 10, while the snipers is 8...

lol, you lot can reackon all you like, since someone here (not mentioning any names *glares at O-Bolt*) has actually read the rules.ini, I think they would know

[cdmtx(YR)]

Well I have adjusted the ranges of the Sniper and Viru guns. Since the Sniper has a high caliber rifle he will have longer-range, then Virus because she only has a dart gun.

Heres a cool idea (Very destructive and may unbalence the game!) have the Libra and/or Cuba team(s) have a special thing for there infantry, have the infantry deploy then blow up! Of have the huge commies them selves do so!

Or to balence the game, don't have them blow up!

This is a random Idea that you can use to either:
Anger ur online opponent and not make his/her rank go up
not have ur units be used against u via mindcontrol
Just cuz u like to see ur units die cuz ur noobish opponent (or AI) is turtling (building heavy defences) and u r waiting for some units to get built and have a lot of cash! LOL

I like that, but I think only for Conscript.
What do you guys and girls think?

Now I gave it though (as you can tell....) and how about instead of a explosion, havthe Virus's dart (So the explod like when hit be a Virus) I like that better, It is diffrent, and it has a good side effect too! Or have Yuri's Initiates do it but that would be a bit more predictable.

I don't think that I (or anyone else reading this) understands exactly what you are saying. Can you try to explain better?

Virus conscript? Likely to cause too many particles, thus lag.

[Palm]

I still don't totally understand...

Let's see: A conscript that dies like a virus shot it? That would get quite crappy, quite fast...

[Jeeves]

I thought it was virus weapons, not deaths

[OmegaBolt]

That would be totally retarded, on both ideas. It would make people wonder, what do the Soviets feed their army?

[Gosho]

Beans for sure

To do that it has to be Grul.

In original YR Yuri's Navy is basically unexistent. Most mods have put in the standard Gattling Warship or some version of a naval Master Mind, however these units are overused and boring. Do any of you have any suggestions of what naval units you want to see in Yuri's Navy?

[OmegaBolt]

Magneyot. Yeh thats right, an AA ship with a magnetic beam, was going to do it for Apocalypse but never worked the way I wanted it to be. Unfortunately the beam will just have to do damage because it wont pull things from the air without raping the game.

That sounds pretty cool! I like that, but it caused a lot of lag?

[OmegaBolt]

Magnebeam doesn't lag, so your fine.

YuriNavalUnit:

DINOSAUR!! Leik one of those ones that was really really big and swam real good and had big pointy teeth!

But a Yuri Dinosaur would make sense- Allies have Dolphins, Sovs have GSquid, Yuri gets Dinoswimmer... cuz Yuri has such good TRex friends...

I leik teh Dinosaur Swimmy swimmy...
