Ideas wanted

[truefeel]

ok, lemme explain it to ya:

like all soviet country's, Cuba is a rusher. they use mainly begin game a small group of rhino's to take you out or do massive damage and putting you way behind, or send in a flak track with terrorist inside which each have a crazy ivan bomb on them. on completely filled flak track of them can destroy a CY. this attack (the correct name for it is "terrorist bomb") is very cheap to pull of and can be very effective.
of course, this allmeans that the rusher needs to act very fast and depends greatly on speed. how faster he is, he more chance he has to critical damage and come to a point in the game were he has the upperhand.

with the extra-speed bonus, that rusher can deploy those rushing tactics far more faster and his chances to win the game dramatically increases. think about it: rhino's, which probably will be as fast or even faster then grizly's, can do better hit and run (as you know, they fire while moving), can retreat faster and are earlier in the game at the enemy base. think about it: the flak track, which is already very fast, can transport the loaded terrorist faster over the terrain and has less risk to get killed before it reached it's destination.


you now understand speed is very good and curtenly not useless ?

also your statement about that allieds depend on speed is wrong. the soviets players are the ones that depend on speed, b/c they are rushers. allieds rely on slower moving vehicles, like the mirage, the prism tank and the (less slowly though) BF. grilzy's are out of the question, as they too weak armored and are breakfast for the more powerful (and in this case: as fast or faster then the grilzy's) rhino's. IFV's are fast and maybe good for a fast sniping, but they have very weak armor and once they are in the firerange of a unit, they are death.
