OKW has too much ammo now for the Core Design of this Army

The OKW is so designed poor in ammo and we must accept this, cause in 1944 the Germans had not much of it

Surely there will be soon another patch removing unintended changes. It is hard to believe that especially the OKW Flak halftrack nerfs are intended...

What is the DPS of the officer's squad itself? Would be interesting to know after how many nearby squads the officer is increasing overall DPS, compared just getting another Panzerfusilier squad.

Not a nerf, a veterancy fix.

The setup time changes at vet 2 didn't used to do anything, AKAIK.

Now it's working as intended, we can consider balancing it better, mind.

As for the OKW munitions changes - it's about 50% more fuel from the conversion. Which, depending on your munitions/fuel income ratio from the sectors, shouldn't be more than around 10% (when you have more munitions sectors than fuel ones) more fuel when compared to the "old" OKW's munitions income

It's called "Terror officer" in the game files

Ever considered the possbility that if something wasn't changed, it doesn't need changing?

No love for Ostheer?

Panthers? Shit. Check.

Panzergrenadier? Shit. Check.

Elefant? Shit. Check.

Pak43? Shit. Check.

Katjusha gets a buff, Panzerwerfer doesnt.

It is like they want you to use Grens, Paks, Tigers only. Every patch that doesnt fix that, is insufficient. Not saying I dont like some of these changes, but to totally ignore the weakest faction in the game, with so many useless units...

math will save you some effort next time.

reload on the support gun is 6.5-7.1 seconds. multiply that by .87 and youll only save .85-.92 seconds per shot. the fact is, the old modifier of .4 was making weapon teams fire more than twice as fast. that was clearly not balanced for things like AT guns and mortars, but doesnt make a huge difference on small arms (which i believe is what relic intended these officers to be used for).


the officer is still useful. it gives small arms a 10% accuracy bonus, which means all your infantry will do 10% more dps, but doesnt help mortars/support gun much.

OKW Flak HT setup time: from 2 to 3. Goes back to 2 at vet2.

Lol yeah, exactly what it needed. And more expensive. *Clap clap clap.

I just tried it in a 1v1, and it still sucks, meanwhile, the AA HT range nerf didn't help at all that thing can still drive in and wreck and get out just fine. They really need to hit it with a set-up time or something.

Except now Puma can effortlessly kill it at range.

OKW get 100% Munitions income!?

You mean... you mean... I can use grenades again!?

IT'S HAPPENING.



Also I'll be able to make more STG44 Vampirs instead of 'Maybe just one, I kinda need that for Shrecks...'.

I'll be able to build MINES perhaps! I remember those! I mean, I won't be able to go nuts like when I play Soviets, just laying them down in increasingly complex and intricate patterns across the map, criss-crossing every possible surface area, but still, I'll be able to maybe mine a few key locations!

I might even get to try out booby-trapping points! And smoke grenades! And, and and... I think I need to go sit down for a bit.
