Most of the times it takes out up to three models with each shot, so you not only don't lose your AI efficiency when you pick it up, you get a handheld Brummbar on your shoulders.


FIX ASAP

Do you have any repro steps? Bazooka shots are extremely inaccurate, I can't hit infantry with the Bazooka rounds.

Thanks

It isn't a bug. Just an issue with units stacking up when turning corners or in cover. If a zook or panzershrek lands right it can wipe out entire squads, like the projectile travels through and hits them all or something.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, I'll pass the information along.

I would say problem is not even squadwipes on bunched squads which really rare, problem is how accurate bazookas and shrecks against infantry in general. Yes, they are not sniping models on regular basis, but it happens too often for such powerful portable AT weapons, which should reduce AI capabilities of squad carrying it, yet effect is exactly opposite.

Raketenwerfer also snipes models too often.

Its more of a RNG annoyance than gamebreaking for me but it does happen. Couple of days ago I watched a Shrek snipe my British Sniper and it wasn't even at point blank range or anything. :/

It's actually not too immensely improbable, think it's like a 1-in-50 chance 'cause Schreck accuracy is just 0.02.

all explosive have a chance to wipe your sq or 1 hit cost shit load damage to you. I had a ISG 1 hit a entire 6 men shock once, when they run up to my sq and pass a yellow cover make them stack on top of each other. Avoid yellow covers!! it only make you lose more model to explosive.

I have no problem with zookas or shrecks killing my models or even (accidentaly) wiping squads. I think community is whining to much about nothing. So what if this occures from time to time? FFs, it's a hand held weapon that shoot explosive rounds, it should have the ability to do it. Let's not overreact about this thing. In addition, in my experience, I can't even remember when I saw this happening last time.

Same opinion, i loose far more men with bad positioning/surprise-flanking/good counter/mines than with an accidental AT shot that hit an infantery unit. We are far from the dammages caused by a Bofor or a centaur.

I truly don't know what'ls the problem.
1800h and not a single squad wipe by schreck/zook.
To lose around 3 models frm schreck/zook shot I must play around 10 long games.
It's very inaccurate rocket and sometimes it will hit infantry.
Just like AT Guns can hit models.
Just like Jadgtiger can kill infantry from time to time.

It's perfectly fine.

I got the same feeling, I've only seen them killing 2 models.

I've only seen this happening a couple of times in streams or replays and it's because pf terrible RNG. Ballistic weapon wipes are far more annoying.

Mostly happens when squads stack at doors trying to get in or out the house.

When you consider time for how long squad will stay clumped and that bazooka/schreck squad will be near when they exit and chance for perfec hit with rocket, all of these make problem not existant.

Can happen 1/1000? Never seen full squad wipe by schreck.

You are missing the point, which is that dedicated anti-vehicle weapons have no reason to be fired constantly and automatically upon infantry. Is that so hard to understand? This isn't Quake Live or Unreal Tournament.
It's a WW2 game that prides on it's 'immersion'.
