Vietnam | Glory Obscured - Hydra Status Update

Progress on the NVA faction for the Hydra release has been moving along pretty well. Most of the art is in with a few art assets left to be made. We are continuing to refine the code and trying to squash out any bugs.

Balancing the NVA is proving to be a time consuming process, but balancing always is. Over the coming weeks we will continue to balance out the NVA.

Below are some screen shots taken by our beta tester Jackseno. Images include everything from amphibious tank assaults to MIG strikes.


 

This Month in Vietnam - June 1968

In April, 1968, U.S. forces in Operation Pegasus finally retake Route 9, ending the siege of Khe Sanh. A 77 day battle, Khe Sanh had been the biggest single battle of the Vietnam War to that point. The official assessment of the North Vietnamese Army dead is just over 1,600 killed, with two divisions all but annihilated. But thousands more were probably killed by American bombing. By June, 1968, strong, highly mobile American forces are now in the area, and the base no longer needed for defense, General Westmoreland approves the abandonment and demolition of Khe Sanh

Vietnam | Glory Obscured - Hydra Status Update

Things are moving along well with the NVA faction. It is essentially code complete, art is almost done, and ground work for the AI is in process. New maps are being created as well. The way the NVA plays is quite different than anything we've seen before and we hope it feels fresh and new to everyone when it's finally released.
The Utility Factory builds all the support units such as the Mechanic and theType 85 ARV. It has the Watch Tower module and the SA-2 module shown on it. These modules occupy slots on the structure and can be swapped out for other modules. The Watchtower spots hidden units and shines a light on them. The SA-2 is a long range missile that will track any air unit in range.
The Medium Factory builds all medium rated units such as the T54 Tank and the Sharpshooter. In the picture the Pillbox module and the ZPU4 module can be seen. The pillbox is the anti infantry solution to structure defenses and the ZPU4 is the quick and cheap solution for AA.
This is the NVA Tunnel. It can be quickly built and move troops around the map.
