never knew jackson was weak. dont think itll be weak even after this patch.
Not saying it will be weak (but Mr.Smith does think it is actually), I'm saying it is going to counter all Ost late game which isn't relevant, cuz in that case Ostheer players have the filling their panthers are weak, like today.

You do know we're working on EFA first, right? Furthermore, Take Aim costs 30 munitions.
I do. And yes I know it does. I was just responding to someone who thought it should be free. Do you think it should be free?

Yes.
Maximum 10 ammo
May be capture territory with Sov Armor should cost some?
Infiltration grenade 15 ammo is OK??
pS Btw i USF AT GUn is a trash - nomatter what take AIm is good for or cost some
USF need PAK or UKF Gun.

How do you make USF atgun more relevant on late game? This is a real question.
On 1vs1 and 2vs2 I already rely a lot on atgun in my games, I think I'm already taking the best from them and I can tell you they are quite powerful when you use them right. The problem is they get OS by anything shooting at them on the late game like any other support weapons. So the only reliable way to make "the rest of the USF AT arsenla" relevant is to make them more durable which is, in my opinion, not really possible unless you decide to use a damage table to nerf any damage they take from any sources.
Mr. Smith has already made comments about changing squad spacing for team weapons which would fix the one shots. For raw performance, maybe a tweak to the AP shell's duration or cost so you're more likely to have it when needed and it would be all good. 'Zooks could probably also use a speed/pen rebalancing and hopefully the M20's cost comes down or REs get mines so they have those as well.
Should I also remember that USF doesn't have stock rocket arty. The way Sov/Ost/OKW can clean an area from support weapons isn't available for USF.
Ideally, that would have been the major's job. He's actually not half bad at it now, but the short range makes it really risky to use. Hopefully he'll get a look at in the future, +5-10 range would be absolutely amazing on his arty.
But I'm interested in how the modders will do, and hope they will success in their entreprise.
For sure, they've done so much for the game. If it weren't for them, I doubt I'd be playing now. A big thanks to you guys!

Tried out the new B4 again. Seems fine to me except for one thing, the dam thing takes far too long to fire its second shot (about 8-10 seconds). No sane player will ever keep their units within the area. If it delt full 640 damages, yeah k but now it deals only half original damage, its just to long. Make around 5-6 seconds (just shorter than it is atm).
i agree with that 100, the second shell is kinda pointless becuz the fast that it takes way to long. and after first shell ppl are going to know that u are shelling the units in that area and move. i think 5 sec wait would be perfect, to counter the nerf of its dmg so it can still harrass vehicles. right now its only really good for static units. i hit a stug direct shot and it was still standing. but things like sturmtiger punish the hell out of every tank with ultimate accuracy. i think if each shell was high dmg around 500. the long wait for second shot would be fine but thats not the case

If there is anything sure is we don't want more powerful zook. I don't know how ATgun crew can have more space between them, I can surely see more space is needed and possible for the Raketen and how sometime for HMG squad are clumpy behind cover, but atgun crew not.

If it were one zook per squad it probably be fine.
Also, any chance you guys could take a look at the Soviet Tank Hunter 'nade volley when you do another pass on doctrines? If its scatter were tightened up, throwing time increased a little, damage reduced to 60 and made into a skillshot it would probably be pretty good, but would likely need target-table changes to prevent it from being used against garrisons and infantry.

SU- M5 with quads
OST - OStwind
OKW - Flacktrack
USF - AAHT
UKF - Centaur

IMHO for AA each side must have special unit. And every side have that. I think it woul be good delete all AA abilities from other units. I think it could give good strategic deep. You can counter any air abilities with your AA unit. For OKW Flacktrack will be good if it can shooting from move as other AA units.

to me these units should be the only real ANTI AIR, other then that bofors,flak hq and okw flak defences that sturm build and thats it

Throwing this in after balance team calls twp a no brainer. I guess it could be free if it gets half dmg lol
Well, it has around 130 pen at range, so it somewhat already does half damage.
Popcap fixing goes both ways.
In one way, you have popcap abuse. This is only a factor when USF is still in the game by the late-game (rarely).
The other side of the coin is that you have a lot of garbage units that take up more than a quarter of your popcap, without you noticing. Fancy seeing how much popcap officers/ambulance/AAHT/pak howitzers/scotts take for what they give in return for their performance?
This clogs up your popcap and eats your manpower.
No argument, but would like to know how you'd go about fixing popcap abuse.

imo the pop cap things isnt really a problem with certain units. one unit i see its a proble with is priest, firing shells then get out. other then that i think its all fair game, its supposed to be like that, peterQ used to talk about using that as a strategy becuz USA uses so much MP becuz all the infantry they get plus all the units cost more mp cuz of it, if u take it away u have to do a major change to all the units reinforce cost and base mp cost

The beloved Brummbar has a high speed, to be a tank dedicated to hit the ground. Compared with other Soviet tanks or other non-EFA factions. Although it can be hunted by medium tanks, it is still the fastest tank in its role with a high armor front and back. I suggest down a few decimals their speed_max. This will lower the reliance of putting brummnbar in first line.

for the amount of mp drain it puts on the enemy this is reasonable
