Permanently BannedThe rak is still the only at gun that can overextend for a kill without as much punishment since there's a retreat button and the 55 range actually makes it easier for it to overextend.

Volk escorts could use a little small arm fire buff too.

you should be allowed to suppress raketens again

Sander already explained that removing suppression from Raketenwerfer was not a nerf.
not a durability nerf but a combat nerf. The combat penalties from being suppressed are very high

And yeah, if you allow it to be suppressed then it will mostly just take longer for MGs to kill without massively impacting it's combat ability.

If my tank is backing up with engine damage I would like to stop the rak in its tracks, not hope that I can do enough damage to kill it fast enough. It depends on the situation

+Available in T0
+5 models
+Can cloak at vet 1
+Can retreat
-All 5 models 'blob' together for easy wipes, especially in cover
-5 less range than any other ATG
-Gun shield doesn't give cover (supposedly? might be bugged)
-Need to manually toggle cloak, cloak locks the unit in place
-Very inconsistent performance on bumpy ground (i.e. craters)

The only way this unit will ever be 'fixed' is by making it more like a normal ATG. Right now, it simply has so many 'gimmicky' trade-offs that its going to be annoying to use (or play against) in one situation or another.
Agreed. But:
+Available in T0
If changed, add pfaust to volks after sws is bought.
+5 models
Make it 4 as the rest of axis TW
+Can cloak at vet 1
Removing cloak after it being nerfed is simply killing the unit, one should consider buff its mobility if so.
+Can retreat
This made the raketen unique and worthy of stealing. Remove this and cloack and simply just remove the raketen aswell

This are the defects of the model and buggy behaviour. Sadly they cant be fixed directly.
Maybe if raketen projectile performs a ballistic trajectory it could remove some of the ground collisions.
Lets be clear now, Im not against your points, im just adding my opinion to continue the discussion.
