Ideas for UKF hotfix

I don't think he was, no one gives their Sappers double Brens. And with the Heavy Sapper upgrade REs get a Vickers K, not a Bren. Which isn't too bad, because by the time you get Anvil Tactics there's generally nothing you'd want to rush with REs anyway.

just remove sandabags (and treches) from tommies, maybe move to sappers
make valentine have a build time like Puma or/and 6CP
reviewing british tech and timings could be also good
slightly nerfing IS and Officer's performance could be helpful
apply fuel cost on UC (same with wc51 pls)
make arty from royal arty a bit more expensive also
and also tanks shouldnt have phosphorous rounds, its way too op

Something tells me you are not very good axis player.

And the heavy sappers upgrade is bad for their combat performance, the single vickers is to weak and the other sten guns do no dmg over range + the ridiculous movement penalty

I was talking about IS with double bren and the do loose dps in cc combats over non bren tommies, i dont have stats but u cant test it in the cheat mod.

Bren has better DPS than the Lee Enfield on all ranges except for <4.

The only two things to note:
- out of cover Bren DPS is going to go down a bit more than Lee Enfield's because it suffers more from the cooldown and reload penalties (I think);
- this Lee Enfield DPS curve is pre-damage/ROF change so the new curve is a tiny bit different but the difference should be negligible.

I mean... It's a 210mp unit that gets increased armour and repair speed.... What more do you want out of it? Should it be fighting off obers? Or mainline infantry with a similar amount of munitions invested? The heavy snapper isn't meant to make sappers a Tommy replacement, it's meant to allow them to contribute if they must. If you are complaining about the combat performance you are using it wrong.

Basicly look at it like this: without the upgrade your sappers are NOT going to be fighting at all. They are going to be repairing. With the upgrade they repair faster AND can sit on the fringes of fights and generate extra value in the time they saved repairing. They are not suddenly shock troops, but they are available to HELP (not carry)

i know you are very good player, so tell me what wrong with my ideas

It wasn't for me but I'll tell you just one: Brits would be the very worst faction at dislogding enemy units of building without UC flamer in the early game. Making this option fuel dependant would be just unfair. Give them another anti garrison option, then you can give a fuel cost to UC.

Btw. OKW was bad at this too, because of that they got the flame nade one day. This insn't fuel dependant either.
