Should UKF get one or more of their doctrinal tools non-doc?

Air landing officer is not a very good CQC unit its 4 men with no camo. It is however a good support unit.

Commando sten DPS is some of the best close range DPS in the game, then you've got gammon bombs. They are great in cqb.

Only issue is they are current locked behind a 500mp glider in a doctrine that's been hit with the nerfbat so many times it's mediocre. Which is a shame because the ALO is unique and cool looking with unique voicelines, rather than the standard UKF tommy model that gets recycled for Tommy/Tommy AT section/Universal carrier/Emplacement crews you get the picture (it's boring).

Good weapon is irrelevant if the squad have THE most horrible veterancy in the game and is a 4 men squad going up against factions designed to kill 5-6 man squads.

Airlanding officer is beyond terrible combat unit and its abilities are the only reasons why you'd ever consider one.

Commandos is a far better CQC unit, 5 member and cloak.

I said iirc and disagreed with what you said because looking at your original stats you posted they seemed incorrect, and they were as others have pointed out.

Anyway there is an easy fix here and it's simply making the bonus not stack. So not really an argument to why UKF shouldn't be allowed a non-doc CQB unit to help with flanks.

UKF would be helped a lot if the Boys AT infantry was just a 3rd upgrade option for infantry sections. It would also make more sense, instead of the outright nerfs that the last patch had. The AT sections in special weapons could be replace by command vehicle or something similar, maybe even a Valentine if they made the Valentine not suck.

No most of that crap is worthless anyway. Just rollback the stupid B.S. nerfs from the last two patches that's all you have to do.

For someone who thinks grens > rifles/IS, all you need to do is L2P.

I L2Ped with hamstrung factions like USF and UKF. I did so because they are much harder than either Axis faction which is what makes winning with them mkre satisfying. But the spring patch just nerfed an already nerfed into the ground Brit faction and needlessly nerfed USF's .50 cal and Easy 8 (wtf? Why?). I was hoping the spring patch would get lost but unfortunately it wasn't.

That's the problem: you only played USF/UKF. Play some Ostheer and come back and tell us how great grens are.

Jump back to quoted post7 Jul 2018, 14:09 PMCODGUY

I did. My win rate is a good deal better with OST Heer than it is with any other faction. Grens are a bit more vulnerable to stuff like mortars and light vehicles because of their 4 man sqauds but in infantry vs infantry combat they do excellent against Riflemen and Infantry Sections.

you missed to tell us that this dmg isnt little and they can deal with light and mdeium armor ...min push them away.

I wouldn't go as far as saying it's irrelevant. If the Relic patchnotes speak the truth it's not a downgrade versus Infantry compared to the Lee Enfield. Light AT capability isn't bad for 20 manpower.
