Bofors needs a nerf against infantry

Now it turns out brits already have tanks? Maybe problem is not bofors after all?

And British infantry? Are you forgot to build hmg or hate winning?

You should really try this so broken against infantry bofors in real games against good people like i did and then come back with "playing different game" arguments. Bofors is userfll, but so as all other options brits have, it costs fuels and dies easily to indirect fire, tanks and coordinated attacks.

Bugged and broken against garrisons tho.

Nah bofors is easy. I just build it on fuel point with a 6 pounder with like 3 infantry sections. Whats gonna stop me?

The enemy capping the entirety of the rest of the map and your cutoff.

What are the stats on the SWS Flak truck?

Oh no, bofors built on a fuel point and I cant cap it with 1 squad, means I need to put little effort and use combined arms to counter it?
Sounds damn familiar

By comparison, the OKW flak HQ does the same exact thing, except better in every way. Longer range and instant suppression.

It's much less accurate against infantry but has perfect accuracy against vehicles because it's classified as "small arms" for ~reasons~.



The difference is that the Schwer HQ cannot Brace itself to become almost unkillable until the cavalry arrives.

Well the last time I remembered attacking an anti infantry emplacement, within its range, with infantry, was a bad idea.

You don't kill a SWS flak with infantry. You attack ground out of range or use vehicles. And if he Braces while doing so move in. And if he lifts the brace your still attacking from out of range with a PAK or vehicle. Can't play the brace game all day, gotta fight or die eventually.

edit: looked at wrong numbers, argument still stands: bofors is better...

the schwere panzer hq doesnt have more range than the bofors (same), it has less accuracy and less DPS tho.

also: if brit emplacements need brace because they're immobile... why do pak43s not have that? or mg bunkers?
