With fanas, I would say we are looking at a very strong unit, but not really "broken OP".

In spaces governed by air purity and contamination control, Clean Room Doors And Windows from yd-purification serve as essential architectural elements, supporting both security and transparency. These components are engineered not only for physical separation but also for safe monitoring and spatial coordination—critical in industries like pharmaceuticals, laboratories, microelectronics, and clean manufacturing. Doors in controlled environments must seal tightly to restrict unfiltered airflow. Whether sliding or hinged, these installations are structured to reduce particulate migration, withstand pressure differentials, and support automated access functions. Intelligent sensors and durable track systems allow personnel movement without contact, reducing disruption and maintaining controlled airflow. Windows serve a distinct function—enabling observation without access. They help monitor production lines, research activities, and equipment conditions while minimizing physical presence in the clean zone. A well-integrated window ensures uninterrupted workflow, enhances safety, and provides auditing capabilities without breaking containment. Material selection plays a defining role in system longevity and efficiency. Both doors and windows are constructed using stainless steel, aluminum profiles, and laminated or tempered glass. These materials are selected for their ability to resist corrosion, deformation, and microbial build-up during intensive cleaning cycles. Design principles prioritize seamless finishing. Flush surfaces, gasket integration, and invisible fasteners ensure that edges remain particle-free and simple to sanitize. Such detailing not only satisfies regulatory demands but also enhances the user experience by allowing quiet operation and low maintenance. Beyond form, these elements are part of a dynamic airflow strategy. Their role in pressure zoning, humidity control, and temperature stabilization makes them more than passive barriers—they are vital contributors to spatial performance. Each installation is aligned with HEPA filtration layouts, air velocity requirements, and personnel flow protocols. Visual clarity is another central function. Operators, inspectors, and supervisors require accurate visibility without light distortion. Clear views, combined with noise insulation and thermal resistance, ensure safety without sacrificing environmental control. At yd-purification, we understand the intersection of hygiene and architecture. Every solution we design is tailored to harmonize airflow, efficiency, and access. Our offerings include a wide range of structural systems to match evolving industrial needs.

[20] There use to be a charge attack (doesn't fit). I guess they really are good and not letting me know. [19] Useless? There would need to be a comma in the legend. I thought it could be something about either blocking the way or preventing capture, but nothing that would fit. [12] Is that a new name? Diagonalo suggested it could be someone's full name. A high performing dev won't have much time playing or talking. [16] Already three letters filled. Someone please help!

Of course you can't. Going for a cavalry rush is almost always wrong, especially if you don't have enough APM or micro skill to use them. I sense that is your problem. Once the Fanatics arrive, you don't have enough infantry to stop them.

This is not how u balance units. Are you a dev? Its simple, fanas run fast, they run. They are not going to attack cs like what u tested. They target women on field for example. Or a small group of men which are mining etc. That totally will destroy enemy eco. Then at a critical moment the fana player send all soldiors and kill his opponent. And both are still in p2. Other problem is that u cant counter fanas with cavs. And its very hard to micro with cavs vs fanas because they run fast. As chris himself in his first post said, a group of fanas easily can kill lot of cavs! Which show how broken they are. Moreover why only gaul should have a super op anti cav unit? Because its favorite civ of chris he bonused it? Fanas already required metal in last alphas. Why they dont require it now?

I remember earlier alphas stopped music when you paused the game. Is this single-player?

Firstly, welcome back to 0ad. If you want the music to stop when minimised, just decrease it to 0 before the minimisation. Alternatively, you can write a GUI mod that does this. Useful command: Engine.PlaySound()

The key to beating fana is to not get into a bad fight. Dakara straight up said he didn’t have enough melee. No one is saying that fana are an awful unit. It’s the opposite where reza is saying that fana are always the best unit, which just isn’t true.

Yeah, I regularly use mass archers in my games without support. I also conveniently position them so that each Fanatic can reach them just fine. Oh, and I'm not even microing my units, because why would I? After all, I am not playing multiplayer, so I can't grasp such tactics. /s just in case, and I won't feed the troll anymore. I rested my case.

Dakara illustration is better than yours @Deicide4u. Somehow you can’t make sense because you don’t play multiplayer. Regardless of any illustration here you can’t compare the devastating effect of fanatics in game on TG. It’s a game changer. From starting at P2 up to the end where you can spam up to 25 fully upgraded (from blacksmith) infinitely, how can you stop it? I’ve seen it. Cavalry being microed as well as infantry they just dropped and when they killed all fanatics another more than 20 sets comes in again and again. as I’ve said they might get countered in 1v1 but in team game it’s going to be pain.

The fana player is going to be at a pop/resource deficit whenever they fight because fana are more expensive for a lot of reasons. A more realistic comparison might be where fana are outnumber by a 22:10 since that is the difference in their straight resource costs but, as you can see, they fana lose fights that are easier than that. The CS player also has the option to push earlier when the fana player will their weakest. it all goes to my original point that fana’s strength is very situational if you think t it should be a 1:1 comparison, that doesn’t make sense. Obviously the unit that requires its own specialized building and costs 2.2x as much should win in a 1:1 fight.

7 Fanatics not good enough for you? How about 10 Fanatics versus the same force? I didn't even micro the spearmen.

Isn’t it dumb to compare/equate 7 fanatics vs 8 spearmen and 12 promoted javelins?

I honestly think they're a little weak against inf. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, though, because they should be an anti-cav unit, so they don't need to do well against inf. But fana aren't actually that good against cav right now either. The problem is that they're slower than cav so the enemy player can just run away. I've been most effective using fana when the enemy cav player misjudged how strong fana are against cav and took bad fights and prety ineffective with fana when trying to use them against inf or a cav player that just retreats. I think they need a slight speed buff.

To underline, the the CS, which cost 2000 in res, defeated the fana, which cost 1540 in res. The fana also cost more food, the slowest resource to gather, than the CS, so the 1540 vs 2000 res comparison understates how CS were fairly close in price and the below example shows it even more because that example has fana as more expensive. Moreover, the fana player had to build multiple temples, which cost adds extra cost and time, while the CS army was built those 20 units several minutes before the fana player even went p2. Consider that the CS player could easily push the fana player before this or get upgrades with those extra res cost and it is hard to imagine how anyone thinks fana are OP unless you let the fana player spam them or try to fight them with cav

this was made for @JC (naval supremacist)

8 basic spearmen and 12 javelineers destroyed seven fanatics, with all javelineers and 3 spearmen remaining. It took 5 minutes to setup the demo.

If the purpose of the units is to counter cav, then why don't just nerf a little their damage against infantry?

You don't have enough melee. You also didn't snipe with those ranged units. Otherwise, it's an easy win for CS.

video, random stuff, no micro, just think what you want, this unit is a counter of cav, you can tell me i don"t have enough melee, it true, but anyway , fanatic run faster and they can pick the moment to fight (as cav) 1) One example with not bad placement for blue : 5 fanatic = 600 food 500 wood *** high speed, not able to pick ressource, big counter of cav 10 crossbow = 500 food 500 wood + 3 sperman = 150food 150 wood = 650 food 650 wood *** capacity to collect ressource / take more spot in house / feel good with 13 units to counter 5 units made for counter cav video 2) 5 fanatic = 600 food 500 wood 9 skirmish = 450 food 450 wood + 2 sperman = 100 food + 100 wood = 550 food 550 wood video 3) 20 archers + 3 spermen vs 8 fanatic = loose 1150 food 1150 wood vs 960 food 800 wood 8 champion infantery sword gauls win also (only 3 remains) 2.mp4 1.mp4 3.mp4

Its not about metal. Its about a way to stop fanatics spam in p2. Locking them in p2 and unlocking in p3 is other way to stop abusing fanatics in p2 too. Without requiring metal for them.

Because the replays have no title its hard to find them. I have to wait for new games then i save them. After a while i share them here

Then clearly you have not played much multiplayer, because it is has been done and is easy to pull off given sufficient time and resources, especially in a team game setting. Also, again, Fanatics are naked, slapping on some blacksmith upgrades does not change that fact, any regular infantry champion will kill them easy in melee combat, any ranged unit with upgrades will kill them easily, frankly even just having stone walls is enough. so I fail to see the argument when the game has multiple options to deal with them.
