Allies dont need an equally overpowered counterpart, CAS just needs to be nerfed.

Ironically CAS is better in 2's I find because the maps are a lot smaller so the strafes hit the field essentially instantly.

But yeah it's been discussed a billion times; change the conversion to a passive instead an active.

The fuel to munition is gives way too much fuel, especially on a larger map. Also, being near the edge of a large map is worse than being on a small map.

On maps like Lienne, with the fuel to ammo conversion you can hit almost 200 ammo per minute, enough to keep all of your strafes on cooldown.

Assuming the image loads, you'll see seven squads that had been suppressed by one strafe. One of the squads was outside the boundaries of the red smoke but it suppressed anyway.

Hmmmmm, I do think that the AT strafe, along with stuka CAS does too much damage and should really be dialed back by like 15% less damage. In fact, the sturmovik and ju87 should be essentially mirrored abilities.

CAS Axis Cmrd is by far the best cmrd for team games (3vs3 or 4vs4)

It's make winning as axis a piece of cake.

Nothing can really counter it and it can help anywhere on the battle field.

Double shreck pzgrenadiers rulez + mg42 grenadiers with rifle nades will make capturing any ground easy.

You have enough munition to make all the bunkers you want

You have all the munition you need to place dirty minefields at critical place.

You can have evenly have some tanks : 2 Pz4 + 1 Ostwind for support.

You don't need to have the best teammates to win.

You don't need to make compromises to have any of the stuff above.

By far the best cmdr for team play. Great synergy, great efficiency, great fun bombing allies tank to dust or strafing infantry before nading them to hell.

Allies need a winner like that to even the playing field. (Plz Relic)

Plz can you tell me what you do as allies to win vs them ? (3vs3+)

I will take all ideas.

Thank you in advance.

As CAS You will have all the munition you want, you can mine, build bunkers, build alot of infantry and equip them properly, air off-maps, all the tanks you want... oh wait.

On a more serious note. Counters:

1. build tanks;
2. build 120s /artilery / katiushas, whatever ballistic weapon you want;
3. plant mines and/or demo charges;
4. build AA;
5. any 2 points from above used together.

As long as allied have their cheesee strategies, CAS should exist too. Now you can / thread

P.S. I am just curious, did you ever use CAS? Like, even once?

Edit: I can bet all my money that after CAS will be nerfed - and it will - the next targeted ostheer commander will be assault support. That strafing run has staying power it does not take 2 seconds like in CAS case and the allied blobbers will be so unhappy.

JohnnyB best advice: pick counter-attack doctrine, you'll see it counters perfectly CAS and don't forget to build tanks!! (what an obvious advice).
Hey Johnny, by the way, did you know you can not convert your fuel and get tanks as well with CAS?
