I like playing against people who pick CAS, it means no Ass grens/StuG E or tiger/tiger ace. Most players also rely on the Muni conversion too much which means you have a fairly good window to bleed him with an early Sherman before he can even begin to afford a Panther.

The Stuart was never meant to be an AI tank to support the jackson, it's a tier 3 unit to fill the gap before medium armour to help you deal with OKW tier 3 but primarily to counter the Luch and doctrinal/light OH vehicles as otherwise US would lack a real mobile platform to do that (greyhound is only good as an inf gibber and AAHT dies too easy).

My reasoning is 320mp is too much for an engineer unit that lacks demo charges, flame throwers or a heavy AT mine. They have decent early game DPS but is that really worth another 150mp over other engie units when their reinforce cost is already more expensive? Maybe back in WFA alpha when they were early game terminators but post-nerf Sturms even lose to a single con squad in cover.

The current replacement cost means if you lose your initial sturm squad to a stray mortar round or grenade you have to waste an extortionate amount of MP for just to get back the ability to counter demo charges/mines. Lose a second squad and it will be GG right there, the Paul vs Jesulin final a few days ago was a good example of this.

Just to highlight the difference in cost but say you lose three sweeper squads over the course of an entire game that would be 960mp, in comparison the Soviets would have to spend a meagre 510 and sweepers are a much more vital part of army composition for OKW than the Sovits.

I suggest the initial purchasing cost be adjusted to 270mp down from 320mp, the reinforce cost would stay the same so "Sturm spam" would not become a problem.

Rzhev is arty heaven because it encourages static play with the Ice and fuel/VP locations. Imo one game doesn't really equal the ML-20 being good, it and the wehr howitzer are pretty terribad compared to the B-4 and rarely pay for themselves by the time they get bombed by off map Arty.

You know this game existed before OKW flack base sturctures right? It was fine back then....

How would nerfing the AA capabilities of the base turrets make them bad again? They still hard counter light vehicles that will try to wipe squads (something the other three factions lack because ya know, they only have mg nests)

You give very poor reasoning to support something that should never of been a problem. OKW should have gotten base bunkers like everyone else.

My problem is Skill planes and the fact they can Auto chase your armour across the map, I think you will find P-47's never existed before OKW either and AA base defences are a necessary counter to that to stop you being base raped as you repair.

Tried to drop fuel on edge of base sector on 1v1 map, didn't noticed any difference.

Allright, I guess it is my turn now... Learn to get dedicated AA unit?

Look through the FoW and look for the little round patches of dirt, and place the marker so the spawn will be as far away as possible. If you're in a teamgame place it mirroring the side of a OH players base and you won't lose a single plane.

Not sure if you're serious about building T2 and getting a Flak track to counter skill planes in 1vs1, but I doubt you play competitive gamemodes anyway like 90% of all other OKW moaners.
