Imo this needs removing Fromm the game its just a joke heavy damage is enough surely!?

As it stands the M8 mine gives the opposing player no chance to recover which is just not fun or competitive imo. Yes use sweepers blah blah but its not always that easy especially as OKW where you usually only have one strum pio.

Cant remember if ostheer riegal mine works the same but if so same for this as well although I don't think I have ever seen anyone use it ever. Same point stands as above.

I guess someone lost a game right now.

And yes both mines are designed to break thread/engine destroy.

The Riegel literally immobilises vehicles that drive over it until they're healed Repaired. The M8 and Riegel are balanced by the fact you need to use a vehicle to plant them, and in the case of the Riegel; Being doctrinal.

The solution to fighting them really is to have a sweeper, though both also have the fairly obvious tell that the enemy is driving around with particular vehicles.

M20 Utility Car is useless without the mine.

Can't really add anything more to that as it nails the point.

You can't demand to nerf everything that you've lost game to because you've got reckless.

There is an extremely obvious calling that this mine might be planted around and you should start sweeping - the presence of fucking M20!

What else is it good for? Is there any reason to pick it over the Stuart?

So good for harassing capping squads. And they're really too dangerous to chase down, also great sight range.

it's a great early game harassment tool and comes way earlier than a stuart. thanks to the latest patch it even got a bit wider timing window before the first counters (e.g. 222) hit the field, which is what made it strong a few years back. and since you'll now have snares on all your rifles the moment you fulfill the tech requirements to build one, it should be much easier to keep the m20 alive during the phase where it's most vulnerable.
plus, no one keeps you from getting both LVs...

Context matter. Probable not a good unit for 4v4 without the mine.

I'd just like to point out we're talking about the M6 heavy AT mine correct? Not the M8 mine(?) whatever that is.

Anyways they're really punishing mines, probably too punishing, but OST and USF both get them and honestly the OST one is better because they're super hard to see because they're thin bar mines as opposed to circular mines. They're more noob punishes though, as higher end players are typically looking for mines when you're operating vehicles and they become less effective the higher the ELO becomes.

The sight alone would make it good in 4s

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:
