No one is moving goalposts. The reason you need to balance the types of ships you produce is that they have different strengths and weaknesses. One weakness of battleship-heavy builds is that they're easily defeated by naval bombers. I don't understand why this is controversial.

Lol people are already able to do that. Let's calm down a bit. I am also skeptical of the implementation of this--it's actually kinda frustrating because it seems like p2w--but let's see how it goes.

If you want a better naval stack, I actually think a 2/2/2 stack would be better than 6/2/2. It's less imbalanced so you won't lose as much when someone brings naval bombers or subs. An obvious answer is 10/10/10 but that's such a resource sink that I wouldn't actually call it a good stack. A genuinely better stack would be something like 10 cruisers and 1 destroyer. Cheaper research, faster units, still capable of bombardment but not vulnerable to naval bombers and still able to defeat subs (or…

I already did. The best naval stack is 10+ naval bombers. It's a bad stack because it's easily beaten by very cheap strategies. That you haven't figured that out yet just means you've never played someone with a shred of a clue.

Hahaha so you want me to say "10 naval bombers" instead? Is that direct enough? How about "as many naval bombers as I can produce for the same manpower without wasting resources on 3 lines of naval research like you did"

Naval bombers, subs, or I just ignore navy and beat you on land so that you've wasted resources

Quote from Daniel_Phelps: “Very rarely have I ever seen my typical stack of 2 destroyers, 2 cruisers, and 6 battleships struggle against anything. In fact, the only thing it regularly loses to is a group with a higher ratio of battleships. I mean I guess if they run into 10 naval bombers they'll be in trouble. But I've never had it happen that someone just builds a 10 stack of naval bombers unprompted. ” Then you're playing bad players. That's fine, if it works it works. Just don't extrapolate t…

If you're using battleships a lot more than destroyers and cruisers you're probably playing against bad players (or are one yourself). Nothing makes me happier than seeing lopsided navies full of battleships.

On that note, I'm a member of a couple other forums that have been using the Discourse software (not to be confused with Discord) and it is excellent.

Quote from KaiserOfAnonymous: “but what is the last time a suggestion is actually added ” And in this case it's not even a suggestion for bytro, I don't think. Moreso a suggestion for the makers of the forum software.

Quote from Claudio NVKP: “Bird, calm down. You are making a big deal out of such issue. ” What? I didn't make the thread. I'm just supporting the idea. The person making a big deal out of this was the one screaming in all caps about this being a GAME FORUM.

By small subset I meant the small percentage of people that identify as non-binary, not the small subset of weirdos who feel the need to make a big deal out of the existence of non-binary people.

It's sad that acknowledging the existence of a small subset of people is somehow considered a political issue, but that's the world we live in these days I guess.

Quote from Claudio NVKP: “there's an unspecified option, period. ” Unspecified isn't the same thing

Quote from TheZhukov: “Yeah, but can someone please answer this honestly, DOES THIS TOPIC BELONG IN A GAME FORUM? ” "This topic, which is specifically about this game forum, doesn't belong in a game forum" is an idiotic take. The forum not including non-binary as an option doesn't mean it's transphobic, but it seems like it'd be a good thing to add that as an option.

6/5/4/3 I think

America Homefront is already alternate-history-ish. Might as well apply some new doctrines or randomization to it to spice things up. Pan Asian in the west, Axis in the south, comintern in the Midwest, allies in the northeast, whatever just add some variety. I'd love to see randomized doctrines, or some sort of options like choose one of the following: - doctrine - resource spread - country location Make every game different and make players adjust to new scenarios. Homefront map would be perfec…

It was pretty smart of the devs to put Hawaii out there tbh

If we're counting dicking around games, I'm pretty sure I've produced 300+ RRG in a single game. That should count for something too

You start with like 300 so that seems a little low
