The only change to the brit sniper was letting him fire standing, so presumably he will still aim his rifle like an OAP and be hopeless against the wehr snipers predator camo.
Bren camo detection was nice but I'm willing to bet the 222 will benefit from this a lot more.
Relic pls, I just want brits to be viable in 1's.

Increase to anvil/hammer research time makes sense, but the increase in cost is unnecessary. The UKF is already a high MP cost faction, they're teching is delayed comparably from the MP drain. BartonPL already pointed out British lategame is pretty delayed.
Comet health reduced from 800 to 720, Scatter increased from 3.2 to 4.2 to bring this unit in line with its other counterparts
The same goes for the Comet, the high fuel cost for research and new nerfs will put the Comet in nearly the same spot as the Panther before tech improvements.
Fixed an issue of flame barrage landing on OKW battle group headquarters
Is this the "Anti-Building Flame Mortar Support?" I assume it's a typo and it's meant to be the Command Headquarters, as it wouldn't make any sense for flame barrage to be able to damage every OKW structure but the battlegroup HQ.
Are there any plans on fixing the IS vet 3 issue or UKF early game presence? All in all, much needed updates on every other faction, especially keeping units relevant.

We will have to play around with the numbers through testing, maybe we just increase the fuel and not the manpower? testing will reveal this.
Comet still the fastest tank in the game and deals massive damage still. Although its scatter is increase slightly its accuracy, splash etc makes it way more versatile. Problem was it was able to move fast, kill stuff and tank a lot of damage. so yeah, if the cost needs to be adjusted or numbers need to be adjusted thats what testing will prove or disprove.
Yah anti building flame mortar support.
care to elaborate on the IS2 vet 3
We have been looking at UKF early game in regards to how they deal with snipers again we are continuing to monitor all aspects of the game.

Haha Comet less health than a Panther, yet more expensive. Typical Relic over buff/over nerf as usual.
it has better AI

IS = Infantry Section.
The issue with IS vet 3 is that the scoped Lee-Enfield rifles are currently decreasing the DPS of the squad instead of increasing it because they do not receive a RoF buff from cover.

It has 30 less armor, max pen is less than panther minimum pen, and costs 10 fuel more. Yes? Health nerf was unfounded.
Also impossible for target ground to hit a vehicle.
