the drops are independent of XP, so XP shouldnt be the reason. it might be that relic changed the droprate recently though!
Don't think it was nerfed, I got 7 drops with 11 items in one night+day, that's a little better than normal.


disenchanting of a commander/bulletins/skins gives x material, building a new commander (hopefully permanent) costs y material with y>x.
So that's effectively trading, especially when you have many duplicates, right? It's just that you don't trade with another player, but with Relic/Sega.

Has anyone taken any notes of which factions they picked and drop rates? It could just be diverse RNG, but I feel as though I am getting a lot more drops with the newer factions than the older factions. I seem to average about 7-8 war spoils (total spoils not drops) in ~8 hours. But with Whermacht I seem to only be averaging around 3 in ~ 8 hours.


Now that was strange, I played 6 40~60 matches of annihilation with friends 3 vs 3 and I got 2 commanders and 1 bulletin...I mean wow really? Now when I have all of em? Friend needs commanders and keep getting bulletins, which I want to collect. Instead I get commanders which I do not need and he would love to have.....RNG what the...or my friend who does not care about victory strikes keep getting them....

you could see it like that, but essentially it would be easier, because there would be no need to search for a tradepartner

Finding it really difficult to get a Wehrmacht commander drop. So far I got all the rare commanders for UKF while grinding as Wehrmacht, but still no success for a Wehrmacht commander.

Damn, 2 days into the new patch and I already got the 2 new UKF commanders and the Intel Bulletin: I feel asleep... Giving the Land Mattress vet 10% faster. Did they chance the drop rate or am I just that lucky?

Think I might have completed the UKF again just 2 days after the patch, insane.

can i do other stuff while the script runs? like can i move the screen around or minimize it? id like to do my homework while it runs.

Couple more questions:
1. should i set game time for 1 hour or 30 minutes?
2. can't i just press the force victory now button after 6 minutes to speed things up?

Thank you!

As long as you keep an eye on the timer and be sure the CoH2 window is active before it expires, you should be able to do other stuff. The script has stopped responding for me a few times when I was clicking around in other programs, but this shouldn't be a big deal if you're sitting there anyway.

1) The script creator (or somebody) mentioned earlier that 60-minute games seem to yield the best results. In my experience, this is true.

2) I think drops are dependent on time, not the number of matches you play. In nearly 130 hours of farming, I've been getting about 1 drop every 4 to 6 matches. When I dropped the match time to 30 minutes, I was at times going 10 or more matches without even getting a bulletin.

You can just do it manually if you are using PC and farming war spoils in the background.

yes, it doesnt seem to be linear with gametime, but around 60 minutes seems to be optimum...
