Less BIASED QQing please.
A month ago, you were saying game is fine.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

the USF strafe pins AND does damage to squads caught in the line of fire. the ostheer strafe only pins and deals NO damage. the damage is actually really significant and can easily wipe low health squads in the line of fire. if you increase the damage too much, you run the risk of wiping squads that are at 75% of hp, and if the damage is too high, you can wipe full health squads. do you really want that? do you really want for a strafe to wipe a full health squad?

Agreed, I should probably support ost loiter pin plane cost increase to 250 muni and CAS skill plane to cost to 125 instead of 60, after all its exactly the same ability with different name, no need to be biased for me and accept axis one being vastly superior in cost
Then you'll have no trouble at all finding a supporting quote!
On for an adventure!

I would think about 60 to 75 ammo for the strafe, and about 120 or so for the OKW one

120 for the OKW one? That's way too cheap, it denies an area for a long time, you know how good that is? Really good.

Yeah, the ability does a deceptive amount of damage. The real problem is that the area it targets is not very accurately displayed by the targeting marker. It only really does the damage around the "end" and the "middle" of the strafe line...? I don't even have a great feel for it yet.
The ability feels bad because it is extremely inconsistent. The first time I used the ability it spectacularly failed to do anything at all. No supression, no damage, nothing. The infantry I had targeted had barely moved.
The next time I fired it off it killed like 10 enemy models. Strafed straight through the center of three volks squads and ate one of them alive while badly crippling the other two.
It's possible that this ability will become quite powerful once players understand it. However I'd prefer a more moderate ability that was consistently useful.

Does no one read here? It does damage guys, it reliably kills support weapons and even wipes squads when standing still, like I said, it targets a single Squad and pins the rest.

I'm fine with it doing damage and costing more, but it is just too inconsistent for its price for my taste.
I launched 3 strafes across a game onto a pair of ostheer mortars. The first time it pinned them and killed 2 models on one squad. The second time it didn't do anything (maybe because they started packing up to retreat), and the third time it wiped one of them and killed two models on the other.
The stuka at strafe does about as consistent AI damage, as well as AT damage and is cheaper, so I cannot see why the p47 strafe can't go down to 100 mu to better reflect it's power.

the stuka at strike cost 110, so 100 is still too expensive for the p47 strafe.
90 munition would be better, around the cost of the il2 strafe

Don't bring the IL2 strafe into this, its like 100x worse than all of the other strafes
THe US strafe pins and does more damage, so it should be more expensive.
