What's your favourite SB title?

[Embis]

What is your take on armored combat in "Red Star over Europe"? 

The mod models a tank-intensive, hypothetical conflict during the cold war and the armored combat model in the SB series has frequently been criticized as a weak spot.

Would be interesting to know if this mod was able to address those issues...

I have never had an issue with the armoured combat model in SB and I am not sure which specific criticisms you are referring to. This game mod was built from the ground up so naturally the PDT files reflect the authors views. I cant say how accurate they are. I don't tout myself as an expert in this area, but I can say  the gameplay is excellent it all "felt" right. If the "weak spot" in armoured combat relates to issues outside of the pdt files and inaccessible to modders, then no..it wont have been addressed.
