I don't mind the idea of an air power commander for USA, certainly they deserve it more than the Germans do. But I consider redistribute resources to be somewhat cancerous.

NO to CAS clone for USF faction.

Also, USAAF was about strategic bombing and fighter escort, compared to Luftwaffe whose role was tactical air support. It therefore makes more sense for Ostheer to have more aerial abilities than others, and should be a signature feature as well.

Both USF and OKW features artillery by comparison, including non-doctrinal. IMO they should stay that way.

Carpet bombing, so USF edition of air supremacy.

What a stupid idea.

Axis fanboys are immediately on the scene and reject the idea without give it a single thought.

Actually, this is good idea, because USF sacrifice their call-in, which is very essential for this faction, for air superiority.

But the Redistribute Resources should increase resource over time, not like old version.

Somewhere Elwood Quesada is rolling over in his grave reading that nonsense.

American CAS makes a lot of sense. Aside from reflection US air supremacy, it's a good alternate way to deal with late game heavy armor. I think I'd switch carpet bombing with paratroopers, though.

It'd be nonsense because he's not a videogame designer.

Also, no more resource redistribution. It gets supply drop at most.

No he's the guy who ran the American close air support operations that you're claiming didn't exist.

Never made such claim. Pay attention.

Hi all!

3CP
Redistribute Resources

I bought vCoH on January 3rd, 2007.
Still missing the days of vCoH 1.71. It had it's issues, like paks sniping 57s, and the strafe didn't work, but overall, it was probably the most balanced time in CoH history.

OF ruined that. CoH 2 is....balanced in a nasty way. Everyone has an equal stockpile of gamebreaking bullshit. USA is full of early game BS while the OKW doesn't get its BS until late game. It's just a question of how badly you exploit the faction's shit and how quickly, after a patch, you discover the gaping holes of bullshit Relic leaves. But either way, it's all BS. The only "BS" in vCoH that was gamechanging was the fast m8 vs a bunker.
