Hooray for Pak43 buff. Thanks for the 4th man.
Interested in the new Top Gunner feel.

ITT: a lot of knee-jerking coming, but that's to be expected. Allow me to give yall some advice:

1) Chill the fuck out
2) Play 20 games on the new patch before you run off at the keyboard

Personally I'm pretty excited.

I dont understand this change, what exactly does it do?


Blitzkrieg doesn't make the tanks faster anymore. They accalerate faster and get to their (normal) top speed quicker whilst having better received accuracy bonuses (they wont get hit as easily). And the ability costs 10 munitions less than before (30 instead of 40).

Edit: A skilled player might use this to efficently flank while stop to accuratly shoot at the same time, as the accelaration is so high that he can whizz off right after the shot.

Edit2: 0.75 rec acc is worse than 0.5

I just wonder why they made HMGs a soft counter against light vehicles. Aren't light vehicles meant to be one of the best counters for weapon teams?

I guess the still are, just that you can't just park it in front of a machine gun and still win.


Also SU76 got an armour DECREASE.

You mean France? Les Currassier? :D


Off-topic but I think it was mostly the TWC/TAD factions that were banned because of how strong they were. I think it was something like if you win with a TWC/TAD faction you had to play a vanilla faction the next game in a tourney. And you couldn't play that TWC/TAD faction any more in that round of the tourney, or something.

Received accuracy is better the lower the value is.

I'm most interested in how the speed and acceleration changes of different vehicle type and classes wil play out. combined with the new vehicle penetration rules, this might be a bigger game changer then all the easy to read numbers (that stand out move obvious).

I'm sorry what ? G43 as a close range weapon ? How am I going to counter 2 sniper squads ? Scout car to get eaten by Guards ?

Why don't you remove the damn scope on it btw, who would use scope on a close range weapon ?

Does anyone understand why to me it seems that German armour has been buffed along side soviet, while soviets still lack infantry based AT on par with panzershrecks. Many of their tanks have had an armour increase, reducing PTRS effectiveness I would imagine.

It seems there are some good improvements to infantry. Engineers cost less, scout car cost less and has more health and penetration. Cons can do more damage. Guards cost less and upgrade for less.
