Haha. You ain't kidding. While I am super glad the USF got some love with a new tank and more importantly NEW INFANTRY (so I don't have to keep playing with riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, riflemen, riflemen...you get the point)...I don't know if my little USF heart (which is fragile to begin with) can handle anymore OKW flames. A small portion of me dies inside everytime a flame grenade annihilates a bunker, AT crew, or MG team. I just don't know how much left I have in me. Lol.

I'm not implying they're OP...just that they are simply...incredibly and undeniably effective. It makes me sad that I have to sometimes throw 3 hand grenades and waste tons of munitions to displace a garrisoned German MG, while the OKW can throw one hand grenade and have it be 100% effective every...single...time.

Yes, its fine, because slower tanks aren't usually sitting on the rear of faster tanks, unless you have learned how to a-move while reversing.

And if you want to theorycraft, then here is some food for thought for you:

222 can kill ISU from behind, it can also kill IS-2 that doesn't have DSHK pintle upgraded by circling it.
I suppose its high time we finally nerfed that imba 222.


No, it doesn't work that way.
No amount of testers will even provide accurate feedback that would prevent all and any imbalance, ESPECIALLY if relic does balance changes between the closure of alpha and release of the game.

You don't release a whole new army and expect it to be balanced right out of the bat, because its impossible.

To be able to even compete on tournament level in any serious way, you'd have to know and play all armies anyway, so how is it relevant in any way?

Also, you have no slightest idea what P2W means until you play mobile multiplayer game or F2P mmo.
You can really take my word on this one.


Competitive people always spend more money and time on their activities, it doesn't matter if its gaming(item shops, DLCs), sports(equipment of higher quality, proper clothing) or even friggin chess(guides, strategy books). It doesn't matter what you do, if you want to do it on competitive level, you WILL have to pay more.

If you're casual, you play with what you have and don't give a shit, so I don't really see your point.
Even oh so glorified SC2 shoves 40 europ expansion down your throat for a SINGLE new unit for armies, they don't give a shit you don't play sp campaigns, you're forced to buy it anyway if you want to stay competitive and up to date and they do it for well over 15 years now, since brood war.

We already have this with OKW who can build the KT once they tech all their buildings. People are always complaining about Call-In Meta and how cheap it is that some commanders/factions can get away with barely teching and they have good points. Why not give every faction it's own T0 tank/TD as a reward for teching up throughout the game.

USF-Jumbo Sherman (They don't need another TD as much as they could use better late game main battle tank)
UKF-Archer tank destroyer (They could use an alternative to their only other true AT tank the Firefly, also it was a very unique and effective unit)
USSR-KV-1 except not full of suck like it is now. This tank needs to be in their main arsenal to give them a main battle tank that can actually take punches which the 34/76 isn't remotely close to doing. I could also go for T34/85 since they were built in even greater numbers than the 34/76 by the end of the war.

Ostheer-Hetzer I'm sure it won't happen now that the Flame Hetzer is coming to the OKW, but this would be great to see in the Ostheer arsenal and would provide a good mix of AT/AI/ambush capability that overlaps too much with the JPIV of the OKW to be added to their stock arsenal. I also wouldn't mind seeing a Marder III but I don't think it would get built much as the Stug already fills the turret-less long range TD role nicely.

I try not to make pipe dream posts but I know this probably won't happen. However, there is no reason it couldn't be implemented and Relic has shown willingness to make changes to core army composition such as removing the Sturmtiger from OKW T4 and placing in the PIV Ausf. J.
