Perfect example of arty dominanz and BS mechanics (4v4)

the advantage from allies with their endless arty rain option are bullshit and needs to tone down.

LM and Calliope are area deny tools. have 4 or more of them and deny every area for endless time, since the first unit cool down is ready, when the last arty unit shoot.

here is a perfect example of the arty-bs:

early game start: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/771341017

some time point with endless arty rain every time: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/771341017?t=1h27m58s

(this game is full of arty rain all the time from the 20min mark)
i killed their arty serveral times...

but their arty isnt the biggest problem itself. its the combination of bazooka /piats bloobs which destroy a panther in mostly one or two volleys.

When he lost the KT. you could have just stunned all of them with a nade. And why he picked fortificaton and didnt build anything is a mystery .

I veto it as allies, in fact my vetoes are maxed out playing as allies.

Hill 400 gets my vote as the worst map in the game.

As axis 4v4 tends to be a more chilled experience so I rarely veto anything.

Removing counterbattery from the Lefh would be a good start in making arty less braindead, then just mirror the stats of the ML20.

In order to make rocket artillery more of a strategic weapon, to be used in conjunction with an active assault or defence rather than just bombarding the enemy as much as possible, all veterancy cooldown bonuses will be reduced.

All veterancy cooldown bonuses reduced to a total of ~20% (compared to up to 40% previously)

Stuka vet 1 cooldown bonus removed. Vet 2 bonus reduced from -30% to -20%
