You do realise they do the same damage? the okw pays 15 ammo more for more range and a faster animation. the rest of your post is crap as well.

I guess it's the retarded way maxims and mortars retreat then. I'm not convinced though, seems when I'm hit by an incendiary grenade my stuff just melts.


How was the rest of my post crap?

When was the last time you saw a KV1? Do any axis players feel slightly worried if they see a KV1?

Same question for the KV2.

The KV8 was nerfed into the floor, again, how many did you see prior to the brits? It will be unused again after this patch.

Penals......are fucking dreadful. Does ANYONE dispute this?

So.... molotov's will still be crap and flame grenade will still wipe my weapons team before I can eve hit retreat?

Great.


KV1, KV2, Penals still all useless?

Great.


KV8 re-nerfed to send it back to uselessness?

Great.

Firstly the kubel should get annihilated, anything less is bad design.

Secondly, yes it may not be a WW2 simulator but it may as well be DoW4 if it didn't follow historical realism to an extent.

For me the furthest artistic licence should go is SU-76s killing Panthers. It really shouldnt be killing Tigers and KTs. I mean, there's a reason why the Soviets upgunned their T-34-85s and built IS-2s, SU-85s (which was actually a stopgap to ->) and SU-100s - because those tanks actually have a fighting chance against Tigers and KTs.

Now if the Sovs were lacking proper AT options then yes, maaaaaaybe give the SU-76 its current stats. It's not.

At the same time, I don't want to see Vasilly Zaitzayov (I'm on a phone and don't know how to spell) man the AT role of the SU-76 and a vodka infused gunner man the AI role. Barrage should be buffed with Penn being nerfed. Doing both

A) wouldn't break the unit
B) Give it the proper dual roles it has and should have
C) lo and behold lets the vehicle follow history.

If the SU-76 became this, I would still build it, its still strong early to mid game.

To put it into context, it is the only vehicle that has a maximum operating window from 5th-7th minute to the end of the game as it stands.

Yeah, glad we agree. It's bullshit. I've never killed a kubel on full health with one hit from a ZiS, perhaps other SOV players can corroborate this?

Again, if you're going for historical realism, there were less than 500 KT's ever built. Yet I seem to see them every game on this. For historical realism reasons, they should probably just be removed.

So for you, artistic license is - exploding shell from tank landing less than 2 feet from a squad, none of them die - fine. Tank Destroyer actually penetrating a tank and doing SOME (not HUGE) damage - beyond the pale. Is that about right?

I still see ZERO issue with su76's damaging KT's and Tigers. Stugs damage my IS2.

Like I said, it's not like your KT or Tiger is getting massively chewed up from 3 Su-76's, you have plenty of time to retreat and rep up and try a different tactic. As Axis have been telling Allies for years now 'flank'.

As a point of interest, when the SU-76 was completely useless and never built during games for all those years before it finally got buffed.....were you calling for it to be buffed? Or were you quite happy with it being useless like 99% of Axis players?

Also, please keep a track of your next 20 games and tell me how many KV8's you see, thanks.

Oh I think 4 SU-76s should destroy tanks, just not KTs.

And I'm pretty sure the SU-76 is faster in a straight line than a KT is reversing.....

And there's plenty that can destroy Panthers, the AT gun, T-34-85, SU-85, IS-2, ISU, hell even cheap mines help a lot. Even with a Penn nerf on the SU-76, the sovs aren't lacking in options.

@Fistfunk.

I have never, ever, in the life of me seen someone call T-70s and KV-8s bad. You're the first. T-70s get outshone now because the M5 is too good in the current meta.

I'm not convinced by the T-70, but the KV-8? Are you kidding? Seriously? How often do you see it in a game? They're garbage for the cost.

A truly awful tank. Not to mention they come out at 8 CP, so shrek blobs are in full effect.

p.s 'fistfunk' is a new one. Pretty rubbish though.

Axis wont be happy until their Panthers can't be damaged by anything.

Oh no, multiple TD's are damaging your tank? What an outrage.

t76 are FINALLY viable to use after YEARS of being utter crap and of course, Axis players start whining.

It's utterly incomprehensible to them that their MEDIUM tank, that any axis player can build, non doctrinal can be penetrated. They got so used to ZIS shots bouncing off their armour, they just don't like it.

Perhaps relic can now turn their attention to the abundance of other Sov units that NEVER get built because they're utterly dreadful.

Penals - 'elite anti infantry' LOL, they're crap. Very rarely get used.

T70 - Rare to see this, laughably bad compared with a luchs

ISU - I see this maybe 1 every 10 games of 3v3 or 4v4, awful unit now.

KV8 - Expensive and considering it has a flamethrower, it's pretty rubbish against infantry. Slow and cumbersome, this will get fucked up. It's main gun is hilariously bad.

KV1 - Utterly, utterly useless tank. When was the last time anyone saw these on the field?

M-42 AT gun - It should be renamed the 'light vehicle tickler'. Anything above a light vehicle isn't going to get touched by this. Crap.

Irregulars - No idea when I last saw these in a game.

Partisans - rename these 'Soccer players who fall over to a light breeze whilst throwing their weapon at the feet of the enemy'. I know 40 year old virgins with more staying power than these guys.

KV2 - Rarely see these, not great.


As a SOV player I'd love to be able to use more commanders, but the vast majority are rubbish. I'm forced into using the same 3 or 4 or I might as well just surrender at minute 1 and save myself some time.
