Suppressing fire from a Universal Carrier?

Okay, I misunderstand OP. He wants blob wipe, not blob counter.

If that's the case then I cannot help much.

The only things that work in OP case are commando and commando officer.
Camo, throw grenade, then clean volk squad one by one.

Guys, guys, I think you are not serious when you compare 2 Vickers to Katy, PzWerfer or ISU etc. as a blob counter :P

Should have put it better but Brits need more combined arms as that's why I put vickers. It help stops the blob which you can do nasty things to them with other tools. And how is centaur a bad blob counter? It still shreds infantry especially with vet 1 ability.

Brits MG is pretty good especially when garrison


Just micro aim it and its the best.

Needs more range...
This thing should work like suppressing fire from bofors, Good luck blobbing trought that...

gl getting to comet while getting outcapped because his blob makes your units retreat


So your first unit is head on better than their first unit, its even better than unupgraded volks. (If in cover and have change to start shooting from longer than poinplank range)

The only problem then is Kybel --> Cut him and just play manpower game until you can do something to the kubel scourge...

Saying that Centraur is a blob counter is like saying that Ostwind is.

Imgaine 5 squads approaching in blob.
Which units gonna handle them by wiping or heavy bleeding?
Katyusha, PzWerfer, Calliope, Stuka zu fuss, KT, ISU, KV2, Sturmtiger, IS2, ML2, B4 etc etc but Centaur?.

You miss read the first post.

Brist don't haevy mobile/stationary arty to punish blobs nor any vehicles with huge AoE (ISU, KT etc) which can constantly bleed them.

How can anyone compare Centaur as a blob counter equal to PzWerfer which wipes whole blob in seconds?

The AVRE is ok. It would be a lot better if the gun didn't have a mind of its own and spin in the wrong direction so you have to wait for it to correct when you give the order to fire. That makes it a lot harder to land good shots

Another issue is to fight heavy fortified postions like infamous med truck+schwerer+leigs.

They don't have mobile rocket arty.
They don't have mobile mortars.
They don't have on map arty which shoot into fog of war.

In other words, it's really hard to weaken such positions without tools other factions have.

As for the AVRE, yea, it's good but because of range, it's that useful like Sturmtiger. Plus like you mentioned, turret can be infact disadvantage sometimes.

2 Vickers behind heavy cover do the trick or a cromwell with war speed crushing infantry.

Also have commandos's demo charges and mines.

Misread it mate, he wants to something that wipes a blob in seconds like rocket arty or something. I could see some cheese war speed crushes though. The salt afterward is what glorious.
