People seem to forget the trade off is a 110 range barrage for the pak howie.
Pak howie= short range, big punch, long range barrage ability

Waitwaitwaitwaitwait what the fuck am I reading
What Doth Life?! saying the Pack Howi needs buffs
Is this an actual thing
Heh while I do love the unit and champion for it often, I have never called for any lethality or efficiency buffs. Only a bit of surviviability,
Actually guys, the +5% range bulletins for the Pack Howi work for the auto-attack range specifically and stacking two or three gives it a considerable bonus.

1 stuka barrage or pwerfer and bye bye pakchowies. Even if you try to dodge it after hearing the barrage's sound most likely it will get totally decrewed. Not that bad idea to give a bit more survability tbh.
Trick is to move pack howies after reload barrage time is about to happen, but it's micro intense and not always you can focus on it.

IIRC barrage is 160 but only fires 3 shells.

Man am I stupid... You guys were comparing the OKW assault gun with the USF pack howitzer... I was thinking it was the OST LeFH vs the RUS 152mm arty

The fact that ISG can counter Howie through more accurate fire is a bit silly when you consider the Howies price and the OKW's Walking Stuka that already counters it.
Other than that the Howie is fine

Wow 3 shells? :Facepalm:
Wouldnt increasing the shells for barrage and lowering the Rof for Auto attack make this unit a really good example of asymmetrical balance? Low range, slow auto attack but huge range and good barrage ability with good AoE compared to fast/high range auto attack with less AoE?

the barrage takes 60 seconds to recharge and only fire 3 shells.
the normal mortar barrage only take 30 seconds to recharge.

You need micro + vet1 to counter ISG with pack howi.
go into auto-attack range when vet1, use Phosphorus barrage and then auto-attack. it takes around 1 minute to decrew the ISG with that (moving into position/phos/auto-attck)
Or you can use it at max range and then attack with your rifles or your stuart. it is fast, the problem is if the T3 is already there.

IIRC both auto attack and barrage are equal till vet2, where the barrage get's insane damage boost. I'll go with an increase on number of shells on normal barrage to 6 leaving the long cooldown as it is. The other option is to reduce the barrage cooldown to 30s (this would reward micro way more).
