Grenade Model Cap

Jump back to quoted post7 May 2019, 23:33 PMLago

If you've flanked with the infantry squad, a two model grenade blast will knock it down to two models. Two model MGs don't have good chances of packing up and running.

If you try to kill it frontally with a grenade, it probably won't work any more.

However the Ostwind and mines work is what I'm thinking.

That's a silly complaint since it'll fire the follow up shot roughly .3 seconds afterward. You wouldn't even have noticed it if they didn't say something.

2 cap for standard infantry grenades, but i think the more restricted grenades could be 3.

those capped at 3 would be- bundled nades, light gammons, gammon bombs (using this an opportunity to buff them to an attractive state, likely with a slightly shorter timer so its vehicle stun trait becomes possible) and possibly the shock nade, simply to reinforce them as AI masters

also if you are making that step could we make the demo charge capped at 3 and camoed again? ive been informed that having an MG is not possible for the soviet, so a way to punish blobs before t4 would be a great addition to the faction.

I didn't even know capping was possible! Why aren't we using this more? Would love to see heavy hitters like the IS-2 actually have some accuracy, the reason it was nerfed was because it was a squad wipe machine. Let's give it some freakin' accuracy and just put a cap on it so it can actually hit tanks half decently without deleting Grenadier squads.

Anyone else think grenades should have a 2 model kill cap like mines do?

Combine it with much faster wind-ups/detonation timers and cover bypassing (for some reason directional cover damage reduction works on them) and they'll be much more generally useful rather than squadwipe bombs that only work if the opponent's not looking.

Mines have a cap, because it was RNG squad wipe.

Grenades are L2P squad wipe, therefore don't need any cap.
