not really. as other people have mentioned what matters is how much damage you deal and take, and not how many models you kill. its possible to get to vet 5 with 0 kills as long as you keep damaging opponents and your hetzer takes damage as well.

Just delete okw. I am a USF fanboy deluxe at-large and this is getting out of hand. OKW really sucks.

The heter is a nice idea but the hetzer is so bad. the flamers for sturms are reallly nice.

since the normalization of flame tanks they all are pretty underwhelming. Maybe the nerf to 10 (while being slight) was to much.

Could try making all of them 12 and maybe exclude the bren?

the funny thing is, most Axis oriented players wanted a nerf to flame weapons (KV8, Croc etc.) and in return they then get a nerfed hetzer that they complain about, its fucking hilarious I'm loving every second

Because people whined how OP flame tanks are, so they nerfed them all by 75% while not really changing much for the WASP, which sucks hard ever since last patch which made it deal whooping 6 damage.

Why do they give OKW a flame based commander the same patch they nerf flame damage by 75%.

You have 1 hour.

even the kv8 pop cap is 14,
why the light turretless is 16 ?
lol lelic


It comes out sooner than a kv8 to be fair...

You axis are the ones that cried all the rivers to nerf flames...well there you have it. Now you have a shitty expensive tank just like all the rest of us and our KV8's.

Referring to any faction or side as 'you' or 'them', or identifying with any makes you lose your credibility pretty fast.


As for the commander, I'm glad it's underperforming rather than overperforming. An underperforming commander is ignored pretty easily, CAS, Rifle comp or Windustry not so much.

Are you sure? It doesn't seem unintended. At least to me from patch notes.


They pretty much wanted to make flames do the same dmg across the board.

Correct answer is: "Lelic".

From my short experience and testing the flamer does acceptable damage at vet1. It also has really good top mg, it deals more damage than the flamer prior vet 1 Kappa So it is one of those units that need at least vet 1 to become usefull. There are 2 problems that I can see: it should be cp7 not cp8 and it should have more hp to take one more at round, now its pretty easy to kill.

As for the whole doctrine arty is really good and can be dropped at base, flamers are also great making sturmpios scale much better. Just the recoup losses seem to not work at all, 80 muni lost for nothing.

Im not sure if OKW can afford spend 100 fuel on tank that cant damage other vehicles while using munition on flamethrowers on SPs instead of on shreks for Volks.

This is highlighted by need to deal with fast Stuart and late game Pershing

I played with Hetzer few games and its performance is not so impressive and lack of turret dont allow drive around ATGs and kill them like with KV8

Hetzer is not good enough to cost more than 50% of panther fuel or 73% of P4 fuel

The issue isn't the fuel cost, the issue is the performance.

:D And what performance you expect/want from turretless, low HP, paper armor, flamethrower tank? Napalm super cooker? :D

How about usable veterancy? And something. More than warm water sprayer? Flame tanks damage nerf by to 10 was way too high. Flame damage needs to go up to at minimum 13. Dot damage nerf by 60% is already fine, and may have made molotovs and okw nades worthless. Those weapons need iniial damage to 20 from 10 at the very least. Lelic'd

Flame sturmpios is pretty nice, but other than that I'm not a huge fan of this commander so far. (Not sure if its worth delaying mines or shreck)
Hetzer seems a tad sluggish, was hoping it would move just a little quicker since it has no turret. I would rather have an Ostwind at 8cp.

Correct me if I'm wrong but it cant shoot and move at the same time right?

Ill prolly be sticking to breakthrough doctrine, and get a jagtiger for all these pershings and comets.

pretty sure the wasp and the churchill used the same fuel mixture and actual flame thrower.

I am not aware that the croc somehow shoots out hotter flame than a wasp.
