An expansion/overhaul mod of epic proportions, with entirely rebalanced gameplay, expanded factions, new gametypes, graphical overhauls, and five new factions; stealth-based Confederate Revolutionaries, tower defense-inspired Atomic Kingdom of China, economy-focused Mediterranean Syndicate, DotA-esque Order of the Talon and spammy Electrical Protectorate.

The ARVN Predator is the Ranger's light attack vehicle. It's excellent for hunting down infantry, because the Vietcong have no infantry that hard-counter it, and both it's weapons do gun damage. It's especially good at hunting down snipers, as it is completely immune to their rifle and it's faster than they are.
The full stats for the Predator as of the latest internal builds can always be found on the wiki.
The Vietcong Chameleon is a workhorse vehicle for the Vietcong, because it's capable of tackling a wide variety of enemies. It hard-counters light armour and aircraft, and soft-counters infantry and heavy armour, meaning it's good against everything except defenses. Unfortunately, it's base damage is fairly low, which also reduces it's soft-counter potential considerably, and it's hardcountered by the ARVN's omnipresent Beagles. Best used in groups.
Like the Predator, you can find the stats for the ZSU here on the wiki.
You guys have shown an uutstanding dedication to this project! Fantastic job on these unit previews.
Is it possible to replace those unit preview videos you get in game with these videos? That'd be amazing to see.
Why yes, yes it is.
and that's why we are all so hyped!
Amazing, just Amazing
Wow, everything is really looking good. I have to ask though, what happened to the Vietcong's green thumb protocol?
Also, is it me or should those Vietcong infantry getting shot by the Predator be dying almost instantly instead of lasting as long as under the jeep's fire as they are now?
If you want to break the balance then sure, we could do that.
Gah, okay my mafhs was wrong. I didn't account for the 2 second spin-up on the minigun.
My Generation in the end of 2nd video is awesome!!! \m/
is there a single player campaign in paradox?
There will be.
Eventually.
This is going to be so awesome when you guys are finished!
Heh, i just noticed that the first and last post about apocalypse are spaced apart exactly one year.
Good day!
Can this mod be played in LAN with the new factions controlled by the AI?
