Table is here. Let me know if you feel like I missed any infantry or see a mistake.

Interesting notes:
-Shock troops have the best armor in the game.
-The German Sniper has about twice as much armor as the Soviet Sniper Team.
-Penal Battalions have the same armor as Conscripts. Guards and Shock Troopers have better.
-Grenadiers and Panzergrenadiers have identical armor.
-Vet 2 MG42, Pioneers and Ostruppen have the same as Vet 0 Shock Trooper armor.

Random question: AFAIK armor reduces your chances of taking a hit, correct? I said that it "reduces damage from small arms" because that's technically true regardless of whether it grants "evasion" or "damage reduction", but I think it's actually the former.

I thought armor made penetration less likely, rather than reduced the chance to hit.

On infantry? I think for vehicles you're right.

I thought that is how it worked for infantry as well.

I think damage for all units is calculated as:

damage per shot * penetration / armor

Accuracy is determined by accuracy value at N/F distance multiplied by target size. Infantry is always 1, light vehicles are 20, super heavies are 26. That way Panzershrecks (0.025 far, 0.05 near) still hit vehicles but always miss infantry.

Accuracy table * target size

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Soheil: Coh2 still broken server ?

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

Nickbn: and again someone else replies. I mean come on guys. Give @adamírcz a chance

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
