Ram

Reduce the effectiveness of Ram against heavy tanks (especially full health ones) and increase penetration of the SU-76..?

What do those 2 have to do with anything. They are in different tiers, so you would never see them together anyway.

A lot of people just aren't getting that unless you choose a doctrine with call-ins this is the best tank the soviet player is going to have. Take away ram and they are completely unable to take on panthers and tigers, let alone elephants, and teching to get su-85 isn't really feasable as it takes about 200 fuel and A LOT of time to even get out a single SU-85. Until T3 is capable of taking on heavier tanks without ram it is not going anywhere.

The only thing wrong with Ram is that 1) it's a dice roll 2) It buggs out randomly.

Thanks buddy

You are lifesaver, most of us have never seen and have no idea how ram looks like.

If it wasn't for your replay, I would be totally unaware that this ability exist and it is so ridiculous.

Thanks again

Lost like 30 T34 ramming tigers without killing single one

I saw this thread after playing that game and posting the replay, i can see why u don't want this ability touched though it makes playing soviets even easier.

I hardly try when i play them, its a joke.

Balanced or not, is it fun and immersive?

I simply find the ram to be a tacticly uninteresting feature. You dont outsmart your oponent or combine your troops to take down his heavy tanks. You push a button and hope that it will pay off.

Its frustrating for both parties involved and a cheap solution to bad faction design.

People i have had enough of this ability. so many times i have seen games going my way to instantly losing because of this single ability. its insane that a cheap generalist tank , that is very effective against medium tanks and infantry ,is perfectly capable of crippling a german heavy tank and deciding the game. it leads to spam as its its really a no brainer and the concept of combined arms is thrown out of the window. these days the only thing i see from the soviet players is script spam with t-34's with the occasional zis

So here are some suggestions.

1. Remove ram from the t-34 and only t-34/85 should have it.
2. Or ram can no longer affect any unit with heavy crush
3. Indirectly nerf it by buffing the stug.

Thought?

Use the su85's then. oh wait you cannot use them because you have no concept of combined arms scouting or strat. you have not given me a good reason on the other hand why a panther should lose to t-34 + some AT. it goes against the very principality of combined arms of coh when you can just spam 2 units and easily win.
