As some of you may have noticed we recently incorporated ACE into the AToW mod.
While some work was done checking personal weapons ie. rifles for balance, very little work ( ie. none )** was done checking the ACE vehicles for balance.
We held some fun tests, and at the end asked both generals "are you happy with your equipment", they said they hadn't seen anything wrong. So we pressed on with C3.
Now we have had some proper "combat testing" - some issues have come to light.
We always have an issue especially with OPFOR in that sometimes their kit gets downgraded to make "better" ( read "easier" targets ) for coop mission players, little thought is given to tvt players in my experience.
We are slowly working our way through the challenges presented.
If you find any balance issues with either personal weapons or vehicles then please report them via chain of command, and they *will* be looked at by the balance team.
If you want to help with balance issues get in contact with your general or councillor DaMan who looks after the balance forums.
Please do NOT start balance discusssions in general forums or in the shoutbox I am tired of breaking up "playground fights" in our general forums.
Thanks to IceShark,BlackViolet, DaMan ,ViperMaul and Zetki who have been wading through the balance work.

**Ace was shipping patches at a frequence basis during fun-tests, and any balance work done would have probably found vehicles had changed by next week.
The ACE bradley is still a WIP i beleive. This is no way a criticism of the ACE team or their mod, they have done a good job of a very large project.
