No.

That suddenly makes it lame? Switch your sounds on and quit crying! You have a skill level to uphold. :p

The only think I really consider lame these days is alting at start of the game and waypoint engineers.
Also in some occasions the *****s who drone or try to, a sov miner every game, especially Edd.


Drones... :wub:

back in the day, people used to target drones with miners ..... I guess we were smarter.

yah i think droning miners on some maps is **** too, and i agree that iron curtain is also overpowered, what would u suggest soviets have instead tho?

Wooden curtain? :p

One drone can get through a miner that targets it, unless you target the drone from a long distance away which means there is no point in doing it.........

"targeting when its close causes the miner to stall which means it won't kill the drone, also it takes two shots from a miner to kill a drone"

another point, engineers aren't effective late game? biggest BS i've ever heard. i wouldn't consider it that lame because it's late game and you should be aware of your surroundings, but the effectiveness is still there. examples...

engineer a warfactory and have a kirov ready...
engineer barracks and build more engis or fodder while attacking
Engineer there last warfactory?
engineer powerplant so they have low power...
engineer random structure just to be able to build in there base.
etc...

iron curtain being overpowered has been proven through the years due to before Random sw's in quickmatch, Fast teching to curtain was the only winning strategy of top soviet players... in Red alert 2 you don't even need an iron curtain as badly as you do in yr due to the battle fortress... i don't really complain about curtain that much considering you can spy+tanya it , but if people really think its that OP just add 1 more minute to the timer !
