Maxim Overperforming

Jump back to quoted post14 Sep 2019, 18:23 PMthekingsown10

The main problem with maxim is the oversized 6 man squads. My point is with a squad size that large it should not have been buffed without a squad size decrease to at the very least 5 men.

as a wehrboo 2v2 player.
every buff to maxim,vickers,50cal makes it even harder.
because grens are not as good in flanking at all vet levels vs all vet levels allies mg.

the same cannot be said against mg42 against the type of allies infantry.

hence i have suggested to mod team mg42 needs a small buff in either tear down or setup time on vet. this is to equalise in mid-late games.

The grens and pgrens both have excelent nades to cripple or outwright wipe even a 6 machine gun. Pgrens are the ones you use for flanking.

although the pgren nukenade is simply amazing at wiping stuff... the riflenade is damn unreliable for both the shooter and the reciever

Thought this was a necro thread from 2014.

Baffles me that people think that the Maxim is overpowered....or even half decent for that matter.

Also that the MG42 needs buffing...

What is going on in this thread?

i disagree gren has a major buff. The word major is not right.
Gren got a good buff against allies projectile at vet3. The buff makes grens suspectible to RA. It is a good buff but not like word major suggest.

But that is only against projectile. I am talking about flanking team weapons, which grens is bad. So is PG considering their costs. Rifle nades are worse compared to handheld nades allies have.

Dont forget allies infantry are better because of moving accruacry and dps because of more man. And mg42 is weakest in packup/setup and repositioning.

Vetted allies infantry is simply better.

Hence i suggest since allies keep getting small buff because they are complaints it is not suppressing as fast as mg42.

Why not look at mg42 pack/setup at vet, since it is most suspectible to allies infantry unlike wehrboo grens.

Other examples, allies mg have higher damage potential, grens will drop models faster further lowering dps. Allies infantry are better at wiping retreating wehr squads, leave wehr more vulnerable.

While consript is easy example to cite but they are now given plenty possibilities after request. Supplement them with other allies infantry ftw.

Hence i have to remind where wehr stand now. Poor scaling, worst faction late game imo.
