Because it's simple to understand.

The second is CA.
CA is in a more "rushing" game. There is no way you can defend when outnumbered (or, at least, no in the extend of BA), then the games can be very shorts. Take more metal patches than the ennemies or die.
There is also some "l33t" spirit in his players. CA "exclusive" players like to think they are more mature and all others mods are "bads".

After that, there is XTA. Rarely play this one, then i can't give advice.

The fourth is NOTA.
Interresting mod. Slower than the others, very well balanced even if all the statics cons (the com is a building, for example) are a little confusing in what each can do.
The better navy of all the "big" mods, easily. But when you dominate the sea, there is no way you can lose the game.

1944 is a game about WW2. More sides than others mods (but only in the anglo-saxon view of the war : Russians, English, Americans and Germany - The fact Japan is not here is probably from the fact the japanese ground army was effective only in some terrains, as moutain islands).
No statics defenses.

After that, there is very few mod played openly (in passworded battlerooms, it's probably another thing, but still).
What happened to Kernel panic?(havent seen a game in ages)
By the way if you want a real balance play Supreme Annihilation.

this isn;t about other projects it was about mods of ta. However, I don't see too many games of your beloved SA so a noob would be wasting his time on that.

But i respect the work that was put into gundam and think it has tons of potential at amassing many players.
especially after Smoth finishes his revamp.

Having played the current gundam a small amount, it's alot of fun. Reminds me of C&C a bit. Faster paced though.
