Still struggling to imagine how USF is going to survive a M3 rush. No effective mines, no atnade before vet1, no Sturmpio that can deal good damage at close range.

Same applies to UKF, I was actually thinking we might need some good natures 'house rules' to allow for some deviation from just sov v sov.
WC51 is harmless before 5 minutes and you'll probably be investing in a M20 with skirt than 50mu on a WC51 at that time. Between UC and M3, I don't know maybe it is balanced.
Thinking about it, who wins on a matchup between M20 and M3...

Willy Pete: It combined well with most slowing abilities, not just ram stuns Last Wednesday, 23:36 PM
Willy Pete: Only??? I think not being able to shoot it down and the ramp up effect also had something to do with it Last Wednesday, 23:34 PM

adamírcz: Might be onto somethin here, combine side armour existing, maps where flanking is a viable option, and hopefully also heavies actually being less manouverable than mediums (lookin at you coh2), and it might be fun gameplay 17 Feb 2025, 13:39 PM
