Red Sun Over China (RSOC) - Official Thread

On this regard, they should really be upgrades of the cheaper one, like in Civil War. I'm like 99% sure this is what pulicat would have done too, had the option existed at the time. On this matter, I believe only units that didn't move on the turn should be upgradable (or having a property for that) (and can't move after being upgraded, in case of uncommon phase orders).
@Hepps If you are going to do that for all powers, then I'd surely remove the elite symbol (also, you can use icons for it, even if to be always displayed).

@general_zod said in Red Sun Over China (RSOC) - Official Thread:
Suggestion for heavy artillery, remove the shells, since the gun is clearly the big one now.
If the shell is an icon, @redrum could decide if he wants it or not after all is there.
-
@cernel This just the design phase. All I am doing is setting up stuff. Better to have something and not need it, rather than to need it and not have it.

Next up! Yours and all of our favorite puppet state... Manchukwo!!!!

Hey. Thanks for correcting the faults in the code. Amazing that you're still working on refreshing the units - thanks! Are you still considering changes to rules/balance or is the pipeline all cosmetic?
-
BTW the Unit Help is confusing in saying that artillery aids allied units as if all units are supportable. But only some are. Also Commandos are not apparently Supportable per the Game Notes, whereas they used to be supportable in the original.
-
@mattbarnes Everything is still open for improvement and changes. If you have some suggestions based on the latest version or want to start a game let me know.
-
I’ve started a game with my father in law. I’ll let you know any feedback.
I remain confused about the purpose of the trains though, in conjunction with the many factories and the many 2 movement units. It’s as if pulicat set this up to encourage strategic rail usage and slow foot reinforcements, but then relented and allowed frontline factory production and speedy troops.
-
@mattbarnes Yeah, I get a bit of the same feeling. I think for Japan in particular, rails should be more important so that capturing and holding them is essential to pushing troops into China.
-
Is it possible that Pulicat designed it as being hard for Japan to win by making units costing 4+? I haven’t played it enough to know but a possible China tactic is to spam the 2 cost troops to use together with fighters to trade front line turf cheaply. Japan can’t counter that cost efficiently unless they can also get cheap troops to the front line.
However, I also theorise that Japan could overwhelm UK by throwing everything in that direction. What do you think?

Map problem?
Hi, I just started a new game "Red Sun Over China", but the graphics is not as cool as seen on page 1 of this thread - see attachment. Anything wrong with the actual version?
-
@loveplayingaaa did u check map skins ?
-
What are map skins? How to check this?
-
@loveplayingaaa top of screen go to view . Skins are a different look to the same map
-
View and then "map skins" is greyed out, see picture
-
@loveplayingaaa bummer did u see what details does ?
-
@loveplayingaaa You need to check the "Show Map Details" option in that menu.
-
@redrum That setting should really be per map, not general.
-
@cernel Agree.
-
Thanks! That was the solution, I had to activate "map details".
