Brummbar is arguably better than the churchhill AVRE.



Can I sig this?

The people who posted serious counter argument responses to OP horrify me.

Brummbar is pretty well balanced imo. It performs decently and the cost feels about right.

It does have a reputation as the troll unit to build once the game is already won. I think this is an unfair reputation in larger games where it's extremely powerful with appropriate positioning. What other unit has great AI, great AT (up to medium), great mobility (it's a race-car with vet), great armour, and moderate cost all in one package?

The weaknesses are:

-lack of turret (but it's fast and the jp4 also manages fine with no turret)
-facing heavies (axis generally doesn't have any AT issues in a combined army)

I hardly play now (internet) but mostly I went brummbar first every axis 4v4 since last year :D

Hilariously the stealth AoE nerf to the Sturmpanzer IV made it so it's AoE is actually worse at killing infantry than most normal tanks lol.

Honestly even at 160 fuel and locked behind T4 it's way too cheap; I played UFK a lot and it's very frustrating to counter this unit with anything but a Comet, and even then it's a close fight.

Image of Relics Think tank when they gave the churchill 1600 hp for 150 fuel. While the Brummbär remains at 640 hp for 160 fuel.




The Brummbärs dps is insane with 1000 pen and 70 range gun, I suggest it gets at least the sturmtiger feature with manual reload + decrewing.

Brummbär is OP. It should be atleast! 300 Fuel. If not it needs a drastic decrease in speed, acceleration, health, armor, rof, damage, aoe and penetration!

Churchil. 155fuel
Firefly. 155fuel

Comet. 12pop

And the GREAT Brumbar:160fuel 14pop
Not to mention the GREAT T4 fuel cost.
Well the cost feels right!

For only 20 fuel less than the Croc you can have a tank that performs almost as well offensively as the 15 fuel WASP.

Will the spam ever stop? Relic please fix the Brumbar today

Dudes, if you really want to nerf a unit that's barely seen and can't hit shit on moving targets (just freakin kite it), that's really sad.

Does it is successful against static targets? Yes. It also has a fairly long reload time so when you see it firing, you have enough time to reposition. It also has a huge cost and by the time it hits the field, you should already have enough AT to keep it at distance and to reliably counter it.

This is a L2P issue, nothing more.
