Faction Changes
USA:
Air and Armor are the real strength of the USA. The heavy attack helicopter is the best and the heavy tank has the most armor. Some Air power TA’s are cheapest for this faction (Tank Buster, Heavy Air Support)
NATO:
Almost the same as the USA. With the exception of the Heavy Tank, which shoots a little bit further and is more accurate. The Medium Attack Helicopter is also the best among all three factions.
USSR:
The real power of the USSR is in Support and Infantry, this represents the mass amount of manpower that the USSR has. Some heavy hitting TA’s are cheaper for this faction as well. Armor units are 2/3 price of other factions and are not as good. Infantry are ½ the price of both the other factions.
Change Log
The following log lists most of the changes.
Armor:
Heavy Tanks – Line of sight is still poor. Firing distance has been increased by 2x-3x depending on the faction. Has a very powerful round for its special ability that is good against all ground units.
Medium Tanks – Same as the Heavy Tanks with the exception of the special ability.
Light Tanks – Same improvments as the both the medium and heavy tanks. The offensive special ability has been changed to the Heat round of the Heavy Tank. The speed has been increased to allow for quick capture of CP’s.
APC – The clip size was increased from 4 to 20. This makes it something to watch out for when you are playing air or inf. The TOW missiles can almost destroy a Heavy Tank in one hit. The range on the TOW was decreased.
Amph Transport – Same as the APC except for the TOW.
Transport Vehicle – Same as original except for USA, which had some minor improvments.
Air:
All Choppers drop 6 flares now.
Heavy Chopper: Very powerful now with increased range, LOS, and bigger rocket clip. The Hot missile for all factions can kill any armored vehicle in one hit. The offensive ability reload time has been reduced to 10 seconds.
Medium Chopper: Increased machine gun clip, LOS, and speed. Sidewinder can take out another helicopter in one hit. The medium choppers can now shoot missiles and behave similar to the Heavy Choppers when attacking armor units. The Heavy Chopper is by far the best for attacking ground units though.

Hey Everyone,
Well TA Mod 4 is finally ready for semi-public testing. This will probably be the last major update for a while so I need as many people to join the testing group as possible. The group has been created so that all its members can have details on a server that I am hosting and gain acsess to the latest mod files.
Anyway, I look forward to meeting all of you on the battlefield.
P.S.
Please PM me or contact me on Xfire with the name "bravoseven" or Skype name "canoworms1" (both without quotes) for more information and for entrance into the testing group. Alternatively, you can post in the comments below this news post.
Here is just a heads up that Tactical Assault 4.0 beta is and has been worked on and is coming soon.
Title says it all. We now have a official server up by massgate. Right now it has no bots but we will see to that. Name is: Tactical Assault 3.6
Unfortunately there will be no new updates any time soon unless there are huge errors

The T-80U actually had about the same protection as the M1A1HA, so this mod is a bit strange.

hmm doesn't seem to work... it crashes at the loading screen when you load a multiplayer game up the tutorial and the campaign seems to work fine though
I didn't have this problem in the past, but I do now.

Do the changes affect the campaign too, or just multiplayer?
its is work for wic:sa?
where do i extract this to i use steam?
Go to "My Computer" and find the Users folder. Go to the Public folder then go to the Public Documents folder. There, you should see the World in Conflict folder. Open it and then open the Mods folder. That's how you do it
