Bofors opinion poll

AT guns are the counters to most other emplacements and buildings. I know this because thats what everyone uses to kill my okw trucks.

Because, at the moment, without it, the Bofors is totally useless and unplayable.

If you remove this ability, you need to seriously buff others stats ( like range first ), or seriously reduce its cost because it would be easily destroyed by any AT gun. ( which is an >Anti-Tank< gun, not an Anti-Emplacement gun )

We talk about balancing here, not about murdering a unit because you don't want to play against.

No fun to play have nothing in common with balance.

I've never referred to the brits as cancer.

I agree that the brits need some love.

I mostly play OKW and don't schreck blob.

And OKW trucks have more range to cover a larger area, more health, AND pinning to snare any infantry that comes into range. On top of this the schwerer is just a tech building meaning you still have an full army to protect it. While the bofors costs both teching and the cost of the unit, meaning you have less units to actually assault besieging units with.

The bofors needs to contribute something to it's defense, maybe that doesn't need to be outright countering the counters themselves, but otherwise all the all the german player needs to do is simply buy a single cheap 240mp mortar squad and defend it and the brit player has to somehow beat it with a much lower unit count. The bofors will pretty much die every time and then there goes the brit players entire midgame.

How can the OKW trucks be brought into this? Get an AT gun and shoot it from range. It can't barrage and counter it's counter. Also it costs 300MP and 135 fuel and you can only build 1.

You can't counter with a mortar if the person has a brain - they just use the barrage and kill the mortar - or they have a mortar pit of their own.

Brits get two howitzers for teching, USF gets free squads (one of which can call in recon and arty). OKW gets a base it CAN set up outside it's base sector although dangerous.

Seriously guys, its needs buffs, how come it doesnt kill panthers and tigers? i mean its not like they are the only things that the bofors cant delete from existence.

Bofors should be a hardcounter to coh2... oh wait..
