The timing is off IMO, it is the only HMG which can be built at 5-6 min mark and is rather expensive, can be countered quite easily and simply put, it doesn't cut it. Once in T1, its cost can be raised to 300MP in order to prevent the creation of USF maxim spam meta.


It can help diversifying the faction and giving them the tool they need to counter aggressive Kubel+Sturm douchbaggery.

Nope. Maybe if you locked it being a side research in Barracks, and added mortar to T1.

Riflemen+ HMG could push Axis off the map and rush an AA track to win every game.

M2HB is definitely a bit too good to be available immediately. Even if it is underperforming a bit right now, its arc and set-up time are good enough to pull off suppressing would-be flankers better than Maxims. Though I'd still be in favour of it and ATG being available at HQ after either Capt. or LT with sufficient Rifle nerfs.

ALSO GIVE T0 MORTAR, YES!

I like this idea. You have to t ch lt to get it and cpt is the more successful meta

50 fuels takes 5 minutes to get? the british can get an AEC out in six minutes.

Put in T0 but require Capt or LT to unlock it and put mortar in Lt tier.

i voted no for two reasons. one, i don't see it as fixing USF's issues in countering garrisons and HMGs prior to teching. two, i think that in combination with RET spam it would be OP.

i do want USF to get a t0 mortar

So 2x 260MP MG42s supported by ostruppen are okay, 4X 240MP maxims supported by flamer CEs are ok, but a single 300MP .50 supported by REs would be OP?

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes
01 Apr 2025, 02:36 AM
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
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
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 :clap:
