Stuka Dive Bomb in base
Posts: 27
A bit offtopic: The stuka dive bomb costs 160 muni and is probably the strongest artillery strike in the game while also being one of the cheapest (Soviet one is 200 for example). This ability seriusly needs to be reworked.

But, I have not experienced it in 2v2... so... it's probably not a huge problem.
Soviets can do the Samething with the bombing run.... not as cheap but it's do-able especially in 2v2
Two wrongs don't make a right.
edit: Why in God's name are some people voting yes? o.o

Actually they can't for the simple timing issues, AoE is another story.
Moreover soviets need scouting planes, axis are provided them and other LOS options in stuka docs.
I've seen multiple times stuka on retreat in base, I've yet to see soviets do bombing run like this.

With howies taken out from the base, none off map should be able to target base sector.

The AOE of the explosion is another matter

I don't see a problem with this. If you can force a mass retreat, scout the base and time the drop correctly, you should be rewarded with squad wipes.

If you don't see a problem with this "strategy" then you have obviously not had somebody use it against you. With CAS its so simple and you can wipe an entire allied army with 200 muni (Recon + Div Bomb) while the allied player literally can't do anything to counter it. Its a cheese strategy that is uncounterable and shouldn't be allowed.
Also the AOE on the dive bomb is huge and even if you start to move your troops away from base after you hear the noice you will still get hit by the dive bomb.
