On the other hand, AWDS Sonja is pretty good outside of fog and ridiculous in it. "Ridiculous" is sort of part for the course with AWDS though.

And AW2 Sturm. Edit: Also, my playing in the game that I'm about to lose can be summed up as "too little, too late".

I started to play better after looking up Sami's theme on youtube. I suggest everyone follow suit.

Sami's theme is legit one of the best themes, if not the best.

Brenner. McD, I was going to actually start the game and take my turn but the website's down right now! Sorry! Also I totally figured Lash was a shoein and thought Kindle would be an interesting counterpick. Seeing as how I've never actually used Kindle this should be hilarious.

I emailed Amarriner about the new hosting and replays recently. If the old site keeps going down, I'll see what I can do to set up games on the new site, assuming Amarriner gets everything working. However, I'm adamant about preserving Kennyman666 and Doctor Reynolds's game.

A question to get some discussion going while the site is down: If you were allowed to make an alternate set of CO stats for use in an "AWBW Rebalance" mode, what changes would you make and why?

Jess doesn't suck in the version that AWBW doesn't have. This is, in fact, true of most bad COs.

I suppose you can argue that Sasha already acts as a "balanced" Colin of sorts. the reason both kanbei and colin are busted is simple math, they get a net gain from their stats. colin is losing 10% offense for a 20% price drop. Kanbei is spending 30% more for a 60% total increase.

I imagine if Colin's units were 80/80 he'd probably suck. Because wow is that trash.

Doctor Reynolds posted:I imagine if Colin's units were 80/80 he'd probably suck. Because wow is that trash. well yeah, but 90/90 is pretty manageable especially at 80% cost and with free money as a COP and Kanbei's units are 130/130 at 120% cost which is garbage without even getting into his powers

Eagle with AWDS Lightning Drive (move again at 50/100 stats) but an oooooOOOO meter. Jess with either 120/100 vehicles and 90/100 footsoldiers, or 115/100 vehicles and 100/100 footsoldiers. I know the classic balance proposal for Sensei is along the lines of 8HP infantry/mechs from his powers and a meter of ooooOOOO. Paul.Power fucked around with this message at 11:23 on Feb 19, 2016 |

Wasn't Colin's main problem that he could use his COP two times in a row?

Collin and Kanbei are two CO's that made me wonder about their balance the second I looked at their stats. They have an obvious mathematical weirdness about them. Other CO's like Jess and Grit have a solid idea on paper, an obvious strength and an obvious weakness, but the strengths and weaknesses just doesn't turn out to be equal once you play the game vs humans.

One 'balance' suggestion I've always really liked was making Flak 120/120 on his turn and 80/90 on the enemy's turn. Not that flak's broken but it's a more interesting concept than praying to the RNG.

I'd like to see Adder get an upgrade of sorts. Like perhaps have a bar that runs xxXX since otherwise Sidewinder is just a much worse option than Sideslip.

KennyMan666 posted:I've been wondering if it would be too strong for Adder to have a straight up +1 movement. Maybe only on ground vehicles, and with -1 movement on air units? +1 movement as a D2D would be ridiculously overpowered. You could constantly threaten attack and your opponent wouldn't be able to do anything about it except back off again and again.

It would be even more overpowered than Grit's +1 range on his indirects. Heck, +1 move on infantry alone would probably break most maps to shreds and let you build up an unstoppable economic advantage.
