Ostheer Commander Revamp 2021

Tiger Ace rework

While not necessary balance wise, this would help the Tiger ace and the 2 commanders it is in be far more unique, preventing them from being so similar to the other tiger commanders.

Right now, the Tiger ace is very similar to the normal tiger. For a slightly higher price, you get Blitzkrieg by default, can survive one more shot, can use emergency repairs and at vet2 suppression and longer sight range through spearhead.
This rework differentiates the Tiger Ace from the Tiger by focusing the Tiger ace on anti tank, as compared to the generalist Tiger. I think this also fits the name better, as Tiger aces were aces for the number of tanks they destroyed.

Rework:
Main gun AOE removed
Range increased to 50
“Blitzkrieg tactics” removed
“Spearhead” replaced with “overwatch”
Overwatch:
Requires veterancy 1
Locks turret to 90* frontal arc
Disables firing on the move
Decrease max speed and acceleration
Increases range 60.

Emergency repairs changed to require veterancy 2

This will counter all allies TDs and tanks. Insane OP.

Well, the current tiger ace is just the tiger with extra steps.

Because there weren't magical tigers with reinforced hitlerium plating and wunderwaffe gun, they were regular tigers with better then average crew.

And you have abilities that support that well tacked to it.

Smoke Bombs should not provide sight.

Hey, can we get more tweaks to 5-man gren. The last patch nerfed it too much. i don't know some more adjustments to their st44 and maybe 5% ra bonus would be nice. At this stage they loose to single bar'd rifle men at all ranges despite only costing 10 mp less. while svt cons have no trouble fighting lmg ober from short range.

Single bar rifles are still greater investment and the fact they won prior to patch is a testament to how much above their weight have they punched.

Look, you can't factor side tech into squad cost. Because rax doesn't only benefit rifles it also benefit every other infantry type that have weapon slots. I don't get why allied players think side tech is a huge disadvantage cause it's not. It doesn't even hamper teching anymore hell allied teching is less expensive compared to ost ones. So where the FUCK is your fuel going???

Hey what about a repair bunker for German Mechanized doc.

5 men grenadier cost 270 manpower/ 60 munition, that same way 7 men conscripts cost 258 / 50 munition.

That is a simple fact.
