I don't find the werfer satisfactory right now. Its scatter is not low enough for it to be effective at max range (where it needs to fire). For some reason it also has an extremely long cool down which makes it very ineffective against weapon teams.
It was too good before the patch with vet. It is utterly worthless now.
Agreed Kat right now is borderline useless. I hate when it misses blobs because of its scatter.
Agree 100%..
I had a game recently on Lagres winter where soviet player built 4 zis gun, 3 maxim, 2 morter plus cons and IS2 and basically camped the middle vp. I had 2 thirds of the map most of the game but it didn't matter because i couldn't cause enough damage to push him off. I built 3 werfers, the first at around 20 and proceeded to bombard away for the next 40 mins using scout plane every time so i was assured of max casualties. In the end i won, but of the 300 kills i got, only 60 were acquired by the werfer which i find completely unacceptable. My opponent was massing his troops in relatively small area for the majority of the game so indirect fire should annihilate him.
I have had a few other games with similar results, ie using werfer to try and dislodge campy soviet weapon team spam and it is simply a waste of time, fuel and tech. I guess MHT incendary barrage is probably the way to go...
