Hello, everyone. We are here for another update of Romanov's Vengeance. With the last update (which we haven't posted a release article for), we introduced the upgrade system to the mod. We decided that the logic has room for some more upgrades, so 7 more upgrades were added. United Kingdom got its upgrade replaced as the old one was not good enough and Iraq got a new upgrade in favor of old one being available for all Soviets. Here's how the upgrades currently look like for 3 factions.
Old British Upgrade is still in the game, it is just not available, so i quickly shopped it out.
And, yes Psi-Corps has one more upgrade than others.
With the initial implementation of upgrades, we added visual indications to some units to show that they are upgraded. While still not inclusive of all upgrades, we added more of such indications for upgrades.
Harrier with both Air-to-Air Missiles and Predator Missiles.
Dreadnoughts with both Radioactive Warheads and Advanced Irradiators.
Nuclear Reactor again, changes color with Advanced Irradiators, even though only thing affected from that is its explosion when killed.
Gatling Weapons with Chainguns upgrade get bullet tracers.
Leech Disc with Disc Armor become gray, that's not a new one though.
RV's dog fights can be up to chance at times. To make the logic more microable we added a deploy ability for dogs that stuns nearby infantry including other dogs, similar to what Attack Dogs and Bears have in Red Alert 3. With a well timed stun, you can ensure that your dog comes out victorious in a fight.
Dogs stun enemy units within 3 cells when deployed.
It takes them 1 minute to recharge this ability, you can see the recharge from the bar above.
Of course as with every update, this update comes with numerous balance changes. Mostly to the upgrades. 4 new maps are also added in this update. You can find the full list of changes here.

Hi, just want to know if this mod is standalone? or do I need to have C&CRA2; installed?
You need art and sound files from Red Alert 2 at the least to run this. See Github.com
Please Add Allied Sub-faction Japan?..

There won't be any more playable subfactions. 5 per faction is already too much as is. We have Korea instead of Japan as in basegame.
Damn,I guess adding units instead.

Or traditional units like starcraft style.
Hey, is there any chance you could add the non-soviet flags for Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia? I think they could be cool for custom maps. Also for the central asian states, if possible.
Our current lore is that after RA1/WW2 Ukraine and Belarus gained independence and Baltics never was officially part of USSR (in the eyes of the West at least), but Transcaucasia and Central Asia didn't. That's the reason for the current flag setup. I intentionally tried to not include any that doesn't fit the lore, apart from a few easter egg ones.
OpenRA allows you to include custom artwork and code in the maps, and the blender model i used to make those flags are publicly available on PPM Site. If you want you can add such flags yourself, without them being included in RV.
Fair enough, thanks for the explanation.
