I guess I've just never seen it done to soviets. But... I suppose it's possible.

I've done it twice to soviets today :)

It's actually super fun...the reaction.

And yes I think it's a problem.

It's a simple fix really - not targetable on base sector. Other arty's already do this, just add this to the list. Fixed.


Only arty that is not targeted on a single point (but a sector) has this property AFAIK. Scavenge artillery does not operate on a sector like sector or assault artillery do. What you're proposing is essentially losing the ability to call in this arty on a specific location like most other arty callins work.

If they do this, B4 and other howitzers will be super safe in base, no off map can touch them. Make not targetable base sector, but also disallow to build b4/howitzer/leaf inside the base and we have a deal.

that doesn't add up, all other okw arty abilities can't target base sector.

Actually there is an easier fix. Just take away 50% of its dmg to buildings.

Actually I don't mind a good base blast if you are losing badly. Milk had 1 shot to win and this was it. He was locked in to 1 commander and 1 shot to win a losing game. The guys that abuse it....not in this match in my opinion...although Once over would disagree because he lost, but the guys already winning THEN using the ability are the scum of the earth. You know who you are :D.

I used it recently 2x on US base and it didn't kill him but he was severely weakened by it however the guy didn't make a tank. That's why he lost. He made a late Flak HT for some ungodly reason even knowing I had a Puma around.

Ofc they are- that's why they are good players ;)

Barton's Soviet M5 with 2 flamer squads takes some beating (IMO). Makes a mockery of the Clown Car

And here i am thinking you just think it's once_over's fault that he let that happen.

You just want the ability to keep being able to sneak your win out of games like this. In other words, abuse your way out of a game like this.

If you make it so it doesn't target bases the ability will become practically useless.

So place all your B4, and ML20 and Priest inside base sector and voila, they are invulnerable to any OKW offmap artillery! Artillery spam begins!



There must be another solution, not that.

How come no one is mentioning that the US armour doctrine ability, 240mm Howtzer can't be put inside someone's base? That arty costs more munitions (250) and yet, is not nearly as effective the 105mm barrage (180, it doesn't even take any of the extra float!). Makes sense that this OKW arty should also have the same restriction since it's so damn powerful and you can just float munis and win. Also, Priests and other long range arty isn't gonna get hit by this artillery if you call it on top of them, since they're too mobile and will always just drive away. Unless you're a terrible player and don't move you vehicles once you see the flares, so honestly your point is moot Kronosar0s.

Honestly, just making it so you can't call it on the base makes much more sense.

Imagine if Arty couldnt be called on allied's bases.
New meta: B4 Spam

There must be another solution, as I said previously.

err, I'm not saying all arty... just this one... If you're playing as OKW using fort. doct. and put a PAK 43 in your base you can't arty it with the 240mm howitzer so it's a similar circumstance.

PS: is it that hard to spell PS? :P
