Aka Brit stock elite infantry.

Free Vickers LMG, super fast reload rate, still having weapon slot for upgrade or pick up, ultra low reinforcing cost, etc.

How do you think about it?

You forgot low dps even with that free vickers and complete combat invalidity because of low combat movement speed.

You're basically get them to baby sit emplacements and repair tanks, they have no valid combat use outside of sitting in emplacements and defending them from single AT infantry rushes.

Eventhough the title and also the initial post are neutral and not whine post in my opinion, I leave this here regarding further development:

They are fine, their main combat goal is to cover your flank I think. Defending your ATGs and HMGs and stuff.

I heard somewhere that if you upgrade them with 2 Brens and THEN go anvil and upgrade them to heavy engineers they end up with 2 Brens and a Vickers - has anyone seen this happen?

IMO they are good at defence, i always upgrade them with sweeper then anvil and usually 2 Piats (CoH1 style, tommies with brens and sappers with Piats), they are not good that much at offence cuz they get reduced speed while in combat

I used them in alpha with tripple vickers.

They still sucked and could barely win against single LMG grens, both squads out of cover, REs had 5 men upgrade, no rnade was used.

You can give them 2 Brens after anvil upgrade and still end up with vickers + 2 Brens :)

Even if you do spend munitions to give them two more LMG's, they are so slow, you arent going to be the one attacking things with it. Which is the point.

I found them to be decent assault infantry with Churchills, they move at the same speed and can support each other well. Anvil Engies aren't OP but spamming them and spamming Churchills is awesome.

adamírcz: Might be onto somethin here, combine side armour existing, maps where flanking is a viable option, and hopefully also heavies actually being less manouverable than mediums (lookin at you coh2), and it might be fun gameplay
Last Monday, 13:39 PM
Willy Pete: Shouldn't coh3 heavies actually have insane front armor values? The glory days of 400+ Kt armor wouldn't be as bad when side armor is a thing. Not to say its a good idea lol
14 Feb 2025, 23:14 PM
aerafield: But then again, maybe CoH3 superheavies should actually have insane armor values because the whole game is designed for the clumsy & inept anyway :snfPeter:
14 Feb 2025, 23:04 PM
aerafield: It's like you have to coordinate an entire orchestra of abilities and the correct units, meanwhile your opponent just clicks his 1 superheavy tank occasionally...
14 Feb 2025, 23:01 PM
aerafield: the giga frontal armor also made these units too oppressive in average or low ELO games
14 Feb 2025, 22:59 PM
aerafield: Massive HP pool but reasonable amount of armor is way healthier design
14 Feb 2025, 22:57 PM
aerafield: Say what you want, but the titanium frontal armor design of coh2 superheavies was bullshit. Too many bad players not getting punished for their bad micro because penetration RNG carries them
14 Feb 2025, 22:57 PM
Willy Pete: Also the attack ground with the pak40 looked perfect, that Pershing should be dead
14 Feb 2025, 19:18 PM

aerafield: I havent seen the new units in action yet (whose BGs will not be purchased by too many people as they are pretty expensive I recon), but I can say with 100% confidence that the Pershing needs a buff
07 Feb 2025, 02:31 AM
Lady Xenarra: I would think lots more players would come/return since there's so many iconic units being added in the new BGs. I just don't want to hear another 8+ yrs of Pershing need buff complaints

donofsandiego: persdhing in coh 3? 😳
06 Feb 2025, 18:42 PM
Rosbone: @aerafield Ahhh, I think I made a pershing like twice in my life since that commander is pretty bad in 4s.
05 Feb 2025, 23:20 PM
aerafield: @Rosbone coh2 pershing has the same ability so, whatever. Though it's probably gonna be a 30 seconds ability to make it super broken pay to win, then 2 months later it will get "hotfixed" into a skillshot like coh2 pershing
05 Feb 2025, 22:00 PM
Rosbone: How do we feel about Pershing shooting thru multiple buildings?
05 Feb 2025, 19:43 PM
Rosbone: I am just happy Relic was smart enough to put this out now because the community was falling asleep waiting 3 months between patches. And a new/old map was shown :banana:
