Really? Like I said, tweak the fuel cost. Make getting one an impactive decision. It will slow down T2 if you invest in one and it can't be everywhere at once. Two rifle squads can take down a 221, after all.

Its still autowin vs early USF and whole sov T1.

Played some inhouse 2v2s yesterday to check out the patchnotes and how they work. I didn't see that much of a problem as Ostheer with the slower teching.

Only thing that is probably the most frightening is the fast M5 + Quad. Only 120 ammo (without requirements). When will the HT get it's Flame upgrade back, without the tech of tier 3.

Yea at this point it doesn't make much sense for FHT to have BP2 requirement.

Still, M5 would make pudding of a FHT Kappachullo

the 222 would need a massive buff to make it a threat to the stuarts/t70. The stuart have nearly 2x the hp for starter.

normally this would be a job for puma, but it's a doctrine unit. Unless Relic make the puma a default unit....

As I've said, these are the changes that will completely flip meta.
Players will basically have to relearn the game now and adapt to new dynamics or they'll catch lolcakes and infest forums with QQ thread, like people who already QQ about ost tech costs without having a clue on how it works in practice.

Those are more or less the exact words of Porygon after March Deployment Patch.

Single one isn't effective as you need 3 shots, early fuel spending on anything that isn't tech that will equalize number of infantry squads is mandatory, you won't have muni for it.
It'll trigger cascade effect for USF where they would be forced to counter something that isn't supposed to be there at that time.

221 and HMG42 combo would overpower early USF effortlessly quite fast as you would be able to get delayed counter for only one of them.

How about we bring back the Flame halftrack´s damage lvl´s back to the BETA period with both flamers having 20dmg, it would work like the original KV-8 but it would not have the crazy VET 2 armor bonus that made it almost impossible to kill, that way it could be a serious threat to infantry but still die to mass AT in a single volley, a real class cannon that could wipe retreating units in seconds!

I dont see much of an issue. both axis factions have been dealing with the jeep and m3 for ages right now. simply standing in cover and concentrating firepower will bring a 221 down. still i dont believe that is the solution and i rather see the pak moved to tier 1 to deal with the m20 that comes out before its counter
