Repair Criticle is such bs

I think it is fine- the crew must jump out to perform the repair. That leaves them not only vulnerable to fire when repair, but the vehicle and the crew is vulnerable in general. If they can manage the repair in time and drive away without sustaining further damage, good for them.

It's too cheap to save your units if you can't micro well or make retarded mistakes, and basicly the cheaper than the effort the axis paid to criple the unit.

That's less bad than costing 10 ammo, but why have it in the first place? If you make a mistake and run over a mine or get fausted you should not have an easy way out.

Because for allied allways will be the easy way out.

Jet engines, tank smoke, overall greater armor for all units, decreasing the chances to get engine damage.

Hypocrite much?

Safe your units?

Have you ever tried to get out of vehicle to try to repair critical when there is opposing infantry nearby?

Its unusable in combat.

If you don't have anything to chase down engine damaged tank, your fault.

Ever heard of popping smoke and not sending tanks out alone?

Ever heard the WC-51 (the doctrinal 0 cp Jeep), this ability negates the faust compleatly.

Hitting a random mine in the fog of war while flanking or re-positioning? No problem, fix it ASAP.

Wehrmacht don't have the luxury to chase down wounded vehicles 'till the Tiger rolls out.

This ability combined with the versatility of the USF's tanks is overkill atm, you can't just chase it down while he retreats into his territory held by the whole US Army.

And no1 start repairing his/her vehicle in combat.

Lower costs, armor spam, ram, doesn't matter if I lose a tank, I can build 2 instead... recognize the pattern?

Yes, because that disables pfausts and ATrnades as it always did for soviets.

It's not about preventing the crit, it's about reparing it behind the smoke.

Pop smoke, insta repair the crit and hop back into the tank.


How is it different then CEs in M3?

Rifles supported with a WC-51 is a pain in the ass to deal with due to the insane damage output. Can be fausted and your grens likely retreat, get out, fix the crit and move onward.

And you know that flamer M3s come later nowadays. The US Jeep comes instantly when Ostheer barely has enough munition.


More like fixing engine and bailing out for repairs, but this is actually the only good point you make, also its intended.


Why? Panzer4 gets immobilized the moment sherman gets fausted?

Does it work vice-versa? Nope 'cuz of the strong Wehr defense, if a US player goes for M4 he usually has somesort of defensive AT. Also fuel is in USF's favor if the game in on equal skill level, so risking your only P4 doesn't worth it many times. I seen many times and experienced: Wehr is on the defense untill the Tiger.

Side-note: Going T3 vs USF is too risky.



This ability 'increases' mobility on an army which main strength is mobility.
Its overkill in the exactly same sense as versatility of tank smoke and blitz jet engines.

Yes, it's intended. But it's too cheap/quickly done for what it does. Combined with smoke, HE-AP rounds, crew repair it's powerfull.

About Blitz; I agree, it's retarded, but their smoke is doctrinal, keep that in mind.


Yep, but apparently some people feel the need to word their posts like they actually do.


Lower cost? For 5 P4s there are 6 shermans.
Armor spam? Exactly the same as above. Hardly a spam.

It matters just as much if you loose a tank. The only truly spammable potent medium armor is StuG3 for its 80fu costs. All other armor, well, if you call one tank ever 5-6 minute a spam, go for it. Thou I probably should mention I don't discuss 3v3 and 4v4.

I recognize the bias instead of pattern here.

It can just get a timer like the Elite Armoured Doctrine, you need time to fix, not just instant

If you don't have anything to chase down engine damaged tank, your fault.

It can be placed instead of the Elite Vehicle Crews Upgrade and made available at cp2 for example.

Looks like katitof took it upon himself to go full retard, yet again.



Funny, I remember giving you this lecture when you whined about PIVs escaping death because of old blitz. What's that? You're a biased pos who barely plays the game he talks so much about?

Guess what?
Shermans never had a warp drive attached to them at vet1 which allowed them to ignore all engine gamage for 20 seconds, which meant safe return to the safety of the base.
