If someone can interpret how AoE is calculated then

Radius:
-K: 6
-PW: 6
-C: 4

AoE damage multiplier:
-K: 1/0.35/0.1
-PW: 1/0.5/0.3
-C:1/0.5/0.15


This pretty much means that PW have most deadly AoE of them all on top of alpha strike damage and calliope have least deadly one.

Pwerfer at the far end of its AoE does 24 dmg while katy does 8 and calli 12 but have 50% lower radius.

Wot? Link me to ONE patch note where Stuka was nerfed. Aside from a veterancy change that I don't remember, the Stuka is the same as it was at release. Pls.


Stuka got some scatter factor after Brit release, they no longer shoot with pin-point accuracy.

Calliope has 160 / 80 armor and 640 health.
Giving the fact it costs 140 fuel and is the "show horse" of a commander it deserves to be the best on map arty.

Getting those things out means your opponent has less fuel for Sherman & Jackson. That means free reign for panthers & Tigers.

It has to drive close since the range is limited. If you can dodge Kattyushas, Panzerwerfers & Stukas you can also dodge Calliopes.

Unit is fine.

I catched this thing off guard couple of times with a tank, but it still was managed to return to base with 25-50% hp :D

hp from 640 to 480 would be ok imo

More salt please :snfPeter:

Camping behind USF at guns :snfPeter:

Werfer is 10x better than calliope but hey, let's keep crying :snfPeter:



What world are you living in? The Caliope is better against infantry than werfer. AND GUESS WHAT?? IT CAN KILL TANKS AT MEDIUM RANGE. I've been having fun killing KTs with this beast. The only fix I think Caliope needs is make it so people cant decrew it.

Mostly. Agree. Too soon to say if it's okay overall.

It has to drive close since the range is limited. If you can dodge Kattyushas, Panzerwerfers & Stukas you can also dodge Calliopes.


Not really. It's easier to dodge:

Katyusha (specially after first salvo) > Stuka >>>>> Calliope 2nd/3rd barrage > Calliope/PW first barrage


AND GUESS WHAT?? IT CAN KILL TANKS AT MEDIUM RANGE. I've been having fun killing KTs with this beast. The only fix I think Caliope needs is make it so people cant decrew it.


At 50 penetration, 80dmg and just 20 at deflect. Hmmm i doubt it.

Wrong, I had a Panther shoot one in the rear armor twice directly from behind and still didn't die.


And you are correct because the Calliope has 480 health (3 direct regular tank, AT-gun shots) since it costs 140 fuel. This is just something people will get used to and realise.

Pwerfer costs 80 fuel, fucks anything it shoots at including buildings with 100% damage(LOL), and if it doesn't fuck it hard enough it supresses or pins it.

But a 140 fuel call in USF katyusha?

reduce health to 100, make barrage cost 100 ammo and make it drive slower when it has reloaded. Balanced. Also give it a 50% to detonate rockets before they fire, making the calliope prone for self destruction, because RNG = fun and esports

Rockets:
-Calliope fires 22/24 rockets on 3 barrages. First barrage is like 10, second is like 8/10 and the last one is just 4.
-Katyusha fires on 4 salvos 4 rockets each
-PW fires 10/12 rockets on 1 salvo with suppression. 16 if using arty officer.

Against Garrison
-Katyusha deals 25%
-PW deals 100%
-Calliope deals 25%

-Calliope has a modifier to deal 75% against production buildings.

If someone can interpret how AoE is calculated then

Radius:
-K: 6
-PW: 6
-C: 4

AoE damage multiplier:
-K: 1/0.35/0.1
-PW: 1/0.5/0.3
-C:1/0.5/0.15

Area distance:
-All: 4.5/3.5/1.5

All do 25% dmg to friendlies



Thanks, that explain all, even dont need player card :D.

Did they ninja buff the health? On stream Brad showed and explicitly said it dies in 3 shots, not 4. Did you find this in the files?

yes in the files.

Either a ninja buff or an epic fail. Considering brad also said the goliath did 200 damage when it does 400, I wouldnt put it past them to be an epic fail

OP is trolling with the price suggestion right? But I think it's fine, I just think it needs to be louder, I can never hear it firing.
