Not that there is anything seriously wrong with it, I just thought I'd point it out. They've have 1 extra since vanilla. It makes some sense but is a little odd.

[Speeder]

In MO 2.0 they had even one super extra country, making them have 6 countries, Soviets 5 and Yuri 4. So unfair!

It gets even more unfair in next release because they have 5 countries, Soviets 4 and Yuri 1. Oh god, wasn't this the original way things looked?

[some_weirdGuy]

I noticed this, maybe Yuri country is suppose to make up for that?
Seen as both soviets and yuri are seen as the 'bad guys' it makes the number of 'bad guys' and 'good guys' even.

but yeah. Think of poor yuri, both soviets and allies have heaps more then he does
(although he just mind controls them anyway, so in a way everyone is his ally )

[Darkstorm]

In original RA2 it was the same way. I'm not complaining it's unfair but more just pointing it out as strange. It probably relates to RA1 and WWII where the Allied powers out numbered the Axis. (In RA the Soviets only had Ukraine and Russia where as the Allies had England, France, and Germany)

Allies also had Greece in the campaign, hence Greece in MO.

Well, Greece still stays of course, as a supporter of Allies - only it won't be playable anymore.

That will make more missions compatible with the mod though. I hope people won't mind THAT much. I do understand that less of Yuri factions could be somewhat disappointing.

FFFF
I liked greece

damn :/

Don't even think of removing the Blizzard Tank out of the final MO.
It's one of my favorites, dispite the fact if it's in line with an allied tank, it damages that too.

[Speeder]

Well, you just saved it.

[Zenothist]

Well, if Yuri is getting only one side, does that mean that Veteren Units/Special Tactics/Special Units will be removed too?

[Speeder]

Gaia Platform will be available via a special tech structure.

I am reconsidering use for Kaamos.

Deviation Fist is now Yuri's generic unit.

Scavenger becomes campaign/goodie crate unit, sorry.

Yuri will most likely keep immunity as his only speciality.

I am still considering veteran units.

[Zenothist]

Too bad, I thought the Special Powers and starting veteren units made the sides more unique. Oh well, I'm really just hoping that Ares will support support powers (Tank Drop and such).

[Speeder]

Believe me, when Ares supports new countries and new stuff that had to be cut due to the port, I'll return them.

[OmegaBolt]

Err Ares does support new countries.

Also does this mean your waiting for a public release of Ares? That'll be a long wait...

Nah, atm I am not in need of any special features from YR patches, so I guess I'll release one version patch-free and then when Ares is out, I'll update MO so it has more features and stuff, thanks to Ares.

I also liked Greece as a playable faction in the game, you never see these sort of countries in war games based in Europe any more since RA1 . And i am not saying that because i am a Greek-Cypriot.
