The only problem with CAS is with very skinny maps, you cannot dodge anti tank strafe because the plane is there immediately and cannot dodge it even with AA

This is it right here, Rails and metal is very bad for this. Same with Ettlebruck station. It's less of a problem in 4's because the maps are so large.

There is so much lolz in this thread, Why are we discussing this doctrine AGAIN.
This is like the 4th time in the last month but lets break it down again...

- CAS consists of Fuel to muni, Recon, AT strafe, AI strafe, Stuka dive bomb.

- All the strikes are skillshots.

- The one using CAS will have not many tanks and in many cases no tanks.

- Ostheer is extremely vulnerable to things like kat trucks and ISU when using CAS.

- You don't counter it by shooting down the planes you counter it by dodging the skillshots.

- Demo's rape CAS blobs super hard. Most noobs don't spread there blob apart when using CAS.

- If Nerfed Luft supply and Ostruppen will take its place and both are just as effective.

- 2 to 3 mediums crushing can really ruin his day.

anti infantry strafe, if done right will AOE suppress surrounding units as far as 25m away. it's not a matter of blobbing or not.

Its dodge-able if you want to complain about the Stuka pin its the loitering one that can't miss.

dive bomb completely nullifies ml20 and b4. which is kinda lame.

Don't build ML-20 and B4 when you see him have a huge lmg/shreck blob too early. if you do its your own fault.

In 4v4 you get 2 going CAS and never lose.

While annoying CAS alone isn't going to win them the game When the IS2's and ISU's come rolling out they will have a very hard time stopping them without heavy armor. In 4's 2x CAS leaves you vulnerable in the sense that you don't have tank numbers.

With the B4 nerf I see no excuse for Stuka to hit base sectors.

If you got hit at your base sector with all your infantry there you got outplayed.
Its not different then shooting kats at base sector or priests.

What I actually find more annoying with this commander is the amount of tellers, lmg grens, riflenades, shrekgrens etc. it comes with. nearly infinite ammo suply makes Ostheer really really strong.

This is the strength of it right here, the planes are secondary. If CAS got nerfed Ostruppen doct can do it almost as well.

I don't see this being a relevant comparison in medium-high skill level games. It is more likely that the Soviet sniper will repeatedly bleed 90 MP while the OH sniper will bleed none unless the OH player really screws up their micro. Losing a rapidly-cloaking 82 HP model is pretty difficult to do if you're actually paying attention.

While it helps a lot having double health and i am not disputing that,
Late game, Yes even at high levels of play the sniper has a pretty decent chance of getting gibbed.
I would wager more chance then sov sniper.

You can enter situations like:

"Oh crap i am microing my panther vs a med swarm and grens at the same time i don't have enough
access APM To save my sniper or even notice it while multi tasking."

But at least the extra HP will let you hot key and press 'T' and he might make it now as opposed
from last patch were he would never make it.

The change to 82 health was intentional in order to allow the Ostheer sniper to survive 1 shot from the Soviet sniper.

Wrong, Snipers simply 1 hit infantry they don't do '80' damage they just auto crit.
According to COH2 Stats technically the Mosin-Nagant M91/30 PU (Sniper)
does 0 damage. But since it auto crits it kills. I could be wrong but that's how
i interpreted the data when i saw it because its damage stat is listed as '0'

Are you trolling or what? At this point i'm not really sure but if you aren't then your attitude is just flat out disgusting.

Probably not, Trolling is usually funny.
