-last but not least a change that i really dislike: putting the hetzer behind panzer author. will kill this unit, it just dont have no window of opp. Why not increase fuel cost (+20) but making it available in the first stage of the schwere?

Panzerfusilier buff is well deserved. Glad I started that thread.

The Hetzer on live is fine at 120 fuel, it's a really good unit to rush.
The new veterancy requirements will help it perform beyond its initial shock window, because it gets good veterancy bonuses.

Putting it at 80 fuel was really pushing its shock power, but ultimately we felt that Obers needed to come a little bit sooner and that it wasn't worth putting the Schwerer at 80 fuel just for the Hetzer, that people would maybe use in 1/10-1/20 matches, compared to Obers that might be used almost every match now.

The 'Panzer Authorization' upgrade should really be a one off upgrade. Rather than having to be researched again if the flak truck is destroyed and then deployed again.

Keep it on OKW, not other peoples bias and their post history.

As far as the notes go:

Think the KT is still not good enough for 1v1 play, but maybe it doesn't need to be. Maybe it needs to be like the JT/Ele where 99% of its use is in teamgames.

It's finally great to see miragefla's tech split finally being incoorporated to the schwer HQ. Although I still do not like how obers need an active (not destroyed) fully upgraded panzer HQ. It's fine to lock it intially, but if you lose the HQ you can no longer upgrade obers. It makes them become an overexpensive grenadier squad.

That just removes any kind of penalty for reckless placing and gives you easily replacable stronger bofors emplacement.

I think For Falls and obers they should have the condition of once constructed the weapon upgrades are permanently available similar to the KT.

Well, we could give SWS truck a longer cool down to prevent this kind of abuse.

I agree with the point on obers. Additionally I think fallschimjaeger are in the same boat. Calling them in if your schwerer is down they will not be able to upgrade.

always asked my self, was the jagdpather only used in team game in Vcoh ? was the kt only used in team game in Vcoh ?

Jump back to quoted post31 Aug 2019, 00:06 AMgbem

The vcoh jagdpanther didnt have significantly better armor or hp than your standard panthers...

The vcoh KT was also comparable in stats and performance to the tiger ace
