Lets say you have 3-4 Sturmpioneer Squads and 1 of them has the ability of mines and you move them all together and they found mines that means that all squads will take no damage from mines or only the squad with the ability?

Once a mine is revealed it won't trigger itself unless acted upon by an outside penetrating force. Any of your sturms can disarm it safely, but the sweeper needs to stay within range or the mine could dissappear and explode with your sturm squad ontop of it.

This applies for all engineer squads.

Sturms are way too manpower intensive for upkeep and have no way to fight light vehicles or snare tanks. You may prefer them to Volks, but if you play a competent player with that unit composition you’ll get crushed by in the mid game or late game if you even survive that long.

Of course, against a noob it could work. Lol

Basically the problems with spamming sturms. You might be able to get away with it now depending on your level but youre gonna get mauled by more cost efficient infantry and light vehicles in the mid game later on. I usually just use 1 sturm with 3 volks and some elite infantry or weapon teams.

Well, except for their panzerschreck upgrade :p But it unfortunately sucks. So much.

I'll do double sturms sometimes. You can get some good wipes on close range maps with some careful flanking. The flame upgrade makes them particularly nice.

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?

Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.

Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.

Osinyagov: Suddenly, coh2 is slowly dying, but you can play it, playerbase still big enough

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
