My proposal is to hit 2 birds with one stone.

Move Panzerschrecks to Sturmpioneers as they originally were. But also let the starting Sturm squad begin with a free Panzerschreck in hand. Not only does this reduce Anti-Infantry firepower on the starting unit, but it gives OKW an early counter to the fast M3 / WC.


and how are the volks going to scale then? without shreks they lose all purpose

I had the same thought.

Why not just decreasing accuracy and pen on long range, so the famous blob becomes less useful, but actual positioning and tactics will still be the same for them?

Seriously, i think slight changes would be the better choice.

Like conscripts?

Oh wait, they scale much better even without shrecks.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

Conscripts will win vs volks in mid short range. second : at nades combined with oorah is one hell of a combination. third: i consider the molotov to be vastly superior because it can deny the enemy from using buildings. merge has less uses but i still see it being used.

take away the shreks and volks only have sandbags left. suffice to say even considering removing the volks shrek is absurd. thats why you look absurd and this thread is absurd.

Give them some sort of automatic weapons upgrade, but that's another story.

All we need is a 30% range nerf, and +30% incoming accuracy on any Volk weilding a Shrek.

Also, it would be cool if PzGrens and Riflemen had a "Target Weak Point" kind of ability for their AT weapons.

Add Sappers with PIATs so I can run rings around hedges and shot blockers and piss off all the babby baddies while I poke their heavies to death, and I'll call it even.

True, but once they had vet 3 captain/Lt. Those piat's became like homing mini-nuke AT weapons from 3rd world war. (and it wasn't to difficult to promote those)

Piats were god tier. They could do indirect fire over hedges and obstacles and with an LT or 3 they became super accurate.

Anyone saying that PIATs sucked has to remember the allmighty Roo Spam.

And God is saying 'No. These people will deal with me alone.'

Dont know if this has been said as the thread is long. But would it be better if Okw had to get 2 shrecks like ostheer? I rarely go for pgs as my at as the munitioncost is to high on a squad thats so fragile.

I think it would make it worse for everyone involved, including OKW.

First of all the first Schreck upgrade would come MUCH later. 4-5 minutes later or so. Thus completely negating the early game deterrent potential. Remember, Raketenwerfer sucks vs light vehicles and OKW have no snares.

Then, late game, once the player accumulates the ammo, Volks Schreck blobs would be even more insanely overpowered.

Agreed, the best option is still to take Schrecks off of Volks and re-purpose Volks as light Infantry. Until that happens, OKW will remain fundamentally broken. Unfortunately I seriously doubt Relic has any interest in fixing it, they will do anything but admit they made a bad design choice. They'll sooner nerf Schrecks to AT rifle level than admit they made a mistake, just look at our history with the Soviet faction...

Fuck shrecks and Volks. Give allies tools to deal with siegheil panzers. The problem is not the shrecks - problem is out that "box".

best solution i think:

1. move schreck to sturmpios
2. Buff raketen
3. (optional) give Volks some kinda automatic weapons package or panzerfaust

Utterly stupid expansion pack. And I feel like what they learned from it was that people absolutely were willing to pay money for extra units to slot into a faction, paving the way for the current commander model.
