Axis attacking Iwo, Axis attacking Saipan etc. Ok. I know that they can win as I`ve witnessed it a few times. 99% of these attacks is a complete failure tho. IMO RS campaign would see much more often Axis victory if Japanese couldn`t choose some American attack maps.
My idea is to add a new option for server admins. It would be separate campaign map available only for Axis to vote. Americans would use a standard campaign map.
Server admin could decide if he wants to run a second list or not. Then the RS maps that are almost impossible to attack for Axis could be excluded from this list.
I`d love to see what the devs think about this idea.

I've never seen Axis win on Iwo, but I have seen Axis win several times on Saipan. It's just those first two objectives that are the trickiest and hardest. Most of the problem is the flamethrower. It's so easy for them to hide right outside of the cap and light everyone up. Once those first two are down, it's really easy to win as long as you have enough tickets to take F.

Reversed maps would also add greatly to the Japanese attacks. Pushing the Americans downhill of Iwo Jima back to the landing crafts would give them back the original defense direction.

The flamethrower for the defenders is indeed annoying, ****'s obnoxious to be honest when you are in the camp and a Yank runs in performs a 360

It's Wolfram, not Tungsten, Ask any Swede. Japanese Lightsabers FTW.

RS needs more true campaign levels, hopefully that fit the regions to the large campaign map better.

Not to be a dick but... it spelled "Volfram" in Swedish.
And also, why not a type 93 or a type 100 flamethrower? And remove defensive flamethrowers?
