Hey everyone,
What about, if indirect artillery fire like Stuka, Matress, Calliope, Panzerwerfer, Priest, LeFH etc. and also all the commander based abillities would only take down infantry squads so far, that there is at least one guy with 1hp remaining?
Maybe this would lead to the result, that people especially in team games could not rely so much on these indirect arty spamming and would also have to combine them with a coordinated ground forces push.
Greatings,
Ewig

Reading the title gives me a different idea: how about arty damaging enemy units but HEALING your own troops if it hits them? Eh?

Well, it's my POV, but I use it only to counter blobbers. So the question is: Are you one? It would greatly encourage blobbing because then the blob would just retreat and come back again. Those things are the only reliable way (excluding demo charges) that can counter blobs so far.
I'm a 2v2/1v1 player so my perspectives match these modes.

Sry my english is quite bad. :-)
No, usually I dont blob my units, almost all my games are with Wehrmacht and I prefer playing 3v3 and 4v4.
The problem I face since the last patches and new add-ons is, that your entire Infantry can get whiped way too easy when 3 to 4 people use all the mentioned stuff, I am talking about on you. I see the problem with countering blobs, but I dont feel like having fun anymore in team games where people decide to go fully on arty..

Well, I wouldn't go that far but I'd make strong indirect fire require more doctrinal commitment or just have greater trade-off with other tech branches

So even Rocket Artillery will fail to wipe out blobs?
If you don't want to get obliterated by the firepower of 4 players, don't play 4vs4, it's what is going to happen there more often than not.

Giving infantry a sort of 5% bug for squad wipes isn't actually the craziest thing in the world.
But there's so many things going on with COH2 that it would probably not work as well as one would hope.

Yes, it would fail to whipe them completely, nevertheless blobbing would still be punished.
Actually I rarely play 4vs4 and 3vs3 these days, because all the indirect firepower is horrible in my opinion.

Or we should give the Allied factions the same friendly fire modifiers as Axis. Nothing beats your own rifleblob running through Calliop fire unharmed to fight the nazis once more.

Why don't we just make it that any event that would destroy a unit reduces it to 1 HP, makes it invincible, and force retreats it to base?
Then finally we will no longer complain about squad wipes.

This forum is really more and more hilarious. Make a mod, say "CoH2.org Unrealistic Arcade Mod"
And free katitof, it's the only thing you can do to for this dead community.

only the usf mortar should be able to wipe squads, it needs that as a buff imo.

SHOUT IT OUT!
KoRneY: @aerafield It's possible that it is underpriced for what it is capable of now, no need to go full retard and take it immediately as a massive problem. It costs 60 more MP than a pz.3 and in 2v2 the barrage can be quite strong.

OKSpitfire: I do like that they made the Stuka more expensive instead of nerfing it into the ground though. Found it pretty unsatisfying to use before that buff a while back....

aerafield: USF already is by far the shittiest faction in terms of countering blobbing and turtling, now they supposedly have one overtuned tool locked behind a BG and it's immediately a massive problem?

Lady Xenarra: I think post-2.0 Whizbang buffs, the price is too low esp since the Stuka got nerfed in cost too. Speaking of which, how exactly is one supposed to successfully dive this Sherman in disguise? Med tank spam running into SSFs?

Rosbone: It is also hard to expect Relic to help Coh2 when they cant even make working menus in Coh3 yet, 2 years after release and at full price+ for DLCs. Thats like asking a fish to do calculus.

Rosbone: But this last patch has made good progress for grabbing players. All we can hope is Coh3 gets to Coh2s quality level before everyone abandons the franchise. Its Relic so they will completely f*%k it up as usual. But its a hope/cope.
