"My country is the strongest" - Prove it in a Wargame : RD Competition

[AgentFransis]

Very tentatively interested but I'm a disgraceful noob that looses to the AI in skirmishes and never played multiplayer. On the other hand I'm a Soviet born Israeli so that gives me a choice of two strong nations. Is Israel still considered OP?

Yes, Israel is still OP, though it has weaknesses that can be leveraged in 1v1. in 2v2 it is totally OP

How do the unit stats actually work? They seem very arbitrary upon first glance.

And that's just the visible ones. As rule of the thumb the ones you should care about first are range and AP power.

...by equally OP Yugos. Only few countries can actually stand up on their own, and the few non-DLC ones are bombed to oblivion by deck point limits.

Yeah, Yugoslavia is OP, with the Entente Czech-Yugoslavia one head above the rest.
Israel is very strong, but if you shoot down their fighters they don't have decent AA any more. That's their only true weakness.
They can also be a newbie trap, if one only packs the deck with the most meme Israel units and disregard the incredibly OP-for-their-price Zelda + Rovait 90'.
Infantry is not exceptional but excellent support vehicles and good number make up for that... if resisted taking the pricey and low availability meme units.

To make an example: Vale is better than me and we played two games, one in which I was Israel and the other in which I was Red Dragons (unarguably the weakest coalition in game to to Eugen fucking up).

I lost as the Jews and won as Juche. When we talk new-to-standard players overall situation counts a bit more than unicorns, methinks.

Plus, Eugen fucked hard with the DLCs: I understand making the votes public even if we got memey stuff like Israel (and not Italy or Hungary or Taiwan, more "thematic") but releasing unbalanced units then dropping the game (I'm still salty because the Soviet Union North Korea coalition was nuked because "North Korea will be buffed" and it never happened) was kind of a shit move.
