Thread: Ostheer repair bunker upgrade27 May 2016, 13:26 PM Jump back to quoted post24 May 2016, 23:48 PMturbotortoise I'm sorry, but Panzer Tactician applies to every vehicle. As well, specifically to the 222, it has a speed of 7.2. The only things faster are the horrendous WC51, and M3. Contextually, the abundance of snares with Grenadiers also could be considered a safety net, along with many other things. It was clear my point of "unit that does not die, seems to be invincible, or comes back from the dead" came across clear enough in the "zombie" simile indicated by your challenging of it, but I apologize for not being as well versed in undead lore as perhaps I should have been. As well, judging by your post count I hope you will excuse me for not extending a welcome to the site. Allow me to say that conflict for conflicts sake and pedantry aren't going to win you any admirers. Wow there, accusing him of pedantry is slightly harsh man In the context of the coh series, zombie often means a unit received after the death of another unit, such as the grens you got from Ost medbunkers after Volks or other infantry died. So that's probably why he was confused when you said that. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: How to counter the British "I win" abilities24 May 2016, 16:38 PM Beating 4 cromwells without tanks of your own is gonna be tough. Build stugs, they are cost effective against cromwells. Fighting 4 Cromwells without tanks is like trying to fight a KT and a P4 with an army that doesn't have Any tanks. Not building tanks due to artillery cover is a horrible idea. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: (May Balance) Self-healing Mine Detectors 21 May 2016, 22:33 PM Jump back to quoted post21 May 2016, 21:03 PMdrChengele Does Volk veterancy really heal so fast for this to be viable? That's what I'm curious about, I've seen it kinda work once. Any one else tried this? Im not arguing it works, just curious if it does. My point is that some infantry are self-healing and I'm curious how the nerf mines will play out with that, especially with medkit tommies. I'm wondering if that will have unintended effects like increasing the strength of units like Volks and tommies, or making sweepers less cost effective. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: (May Balance) Self-healing Mine Detectors 21 May 2016, 18:38 PM With mines now being non-lethal to full health infantry,are Self-healing squads now effectively mine sweepers? If I have some vetted volks, why not just walk them around and then leave them to heal for a few seconds to sweep up mines? Or tommies with med kits. The sweeper costs the same as the Brit healing but is only good for mine sweeping, whereas the med kit has other uses. My friend was doing this in a custom game (walking Volks around to clear up mines) and it seemed to be a viable way to deal with mines In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Petition to revert crushing change21 May 2016, 18:20 PM If you run a squad of cons behind a tank and hit the dirt, will the tank be blocked now? Do suppressed squads block tanks as well? If an infantry squad is near a wall, will they block a tank driving near the wall? In: COH2 Balance

You can wipe Obers and other elite infantry just as easily as pioneers. Cromwells with warspeed are hilariously OP in team games vs blobs. Add vet 3 and you have fastest most mobile thing in existence. See, this is exactly why I'm skeptical about this change. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: (May Balance Mod) Volks versus Pfussiliers12 May 2016, 21:24 PM Oh right, with all the revamps I forgot that Volks no longer have Super Vet. Though yeah I would be interested in learning more about how the scaling sets them apart. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: (May Balance Mod) Volks versus Pfussiliers12 May 2016, 21:14 PM Before Volks were for fighting tanks, and Pfussiliers were for fighting infantry at mid-short with some long range power too, plus they could snare tanks. Now Volks have a superior snare and an upgrade that makes them awesome at midrange. Pfussiliers still have a 6th man but otherwise they feel very similar now, almost redundant. I think. Is there a distinction that I'm overlooking? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Panzerwerfer overnerfed11 May 2016, 11:34 AM I think they want it to be used at mostly medium range, where the nerf was much smaller. In: COH2 Balance
