Let's get some things straight before we dive in for repair speeds:
Non-Doctrinal Repair Rate without upgrades or vet per model:
Sappers: 2
Pios: 1.6
Combat Engineers: 1.6
Rear Echelon: 2
Sturm Pioneers: 1.6
Vehicle Crews: 1.6
With Veterancy 2
Sappers: 3
Pios: 2.6
Combat Engineers: 2.6
Rear Echelon: 3
Sturm Pioneers: 2.6
Vehicle Crews: 2.5
With Upgrades
Sappers: 5 (Anvil)
Pios: 2.6
Combat Engineers: 2.6
Rear Echelon: 3
Sturm Pioneers: 3.6 (Support Package)
Vehicle Crews: 2.5
Not sure on the mech truck pioneers, but anyways, I'll paste this here on my thoughts on that balance post I made:
Eastern Front Army Non-Doctrinal Repairs: Allow the Sweeper upgrade to improve the repairs on Pios and Combat Engineers as it's difficult to get these units to vet 2 where their repair bonus lies. Yes you can generally buy more of them, but these two factions get nothing to supplement their repairs like the Mechanized Truck, Upgraded Sturms, Anvil Sappers, Vehicle Crews, etc. You'd still need 2 of these units to perform efficient repairs, but it allows the combat ineffective sweepers be better in the support role without needing that vet.
Adding 0.5 to their base repair rate of 1.6 would be ideal.
Thanks for the Data! They were Posted here already but I just cant get the search Function work for me on this forum, I never find anything with it..
Edit: just for having it all, do you have the Data for the doctrinal conscript repair? |

I would like to give some Feedback too but since i haven't had any luck with commanders after 400 hours..I can just say kv2 looked pretty good in the sprice/barton Match yesterday |
didnt you read what i said?? emplacements COST you the game,emplacements arent CHEAP so please next time try to read what i said
K so your post is about brits emplacement beeing equal or more expensive than okw trucks and cost you easily the game as soon as you loose it. ( Keep in mind, I started my post with "if you compare") or maybe you didnt read my post carefully?
Oh and btw I dont think heavy artillery or off maps counters brit emplacement, to be honest i think it's the other way around (200muns for stuka Diva? Let me brace it and completly deny your artillery) |
|
Hopping out of a vehicle requires munitions? I didnt play for a Day and seems like I missed the patchnotes |
|
How can you compare emplacements to okw trucks? If okw places his expensive T3 building near the front he runs the risk to lose it (and canceling every unit which is in Production at that moment) and wont be able to rebuild it for 2mins (?)(not calculating the time to drive the Truck to a place and set it up again) It has a clear drawback and to lose a T3 as okw can cost you easily the game. Meanwhile if you lose your emplacement as brit it's not a harsh Set back, more like a unit wipe. Thats a HUGE difference in my opinion. |
Is that really the case? I don't know. It cuts both ways. Automatic fire allows for "spray and pray" usage but automatic weapons are more complicated, requiring more training in the cleaning and maintenance, and such tactics are harsh on ammunition supplies.
More likely they were given what was available (both weapons and ammunition). If there were a surplus of pistol ammunition it makes more sense to give them mp40s and let the veterans use the rifle ammunition for the K98s and MGs.
I dont know.I dont have any sources but this gets quoted often in (atleast semi realistic) late war movie If reinforcements arrive that they should throw their Bolt Action away and take some Automatic weapons (mp40,44,ppsh). If you play Realism shooter like Red orchestra you get a feeling of how difficult a Bolt Action can be in comparison to automatic weapons.And i dont think the mp40/ppsh is that much more difficult to use and maintain. I imagine shooting is much more harder too, you need to aim pretty well with a bolt action while with automatic you can indeed spray n pray.
Would love if someone with real knowledge could tell us the truth |
can we go back to topic pls?  |
Best not to get your panties tied up in knots over this.
Don't compare the units to anything realistic or else you will drive yourself crazy. The list will drive you completely mad. (How is it the Germans have all the powerful air support? How is it they have ANY air support while the US has little? Same question with regards to artillery. How come they get a Kubel and HT while the US, an army that barely walked anywhere, doesn't even have the ubiquitous jeep? Where are all the US mortars? Every airborne and armored infantry platoon had its own mortar section, and every infantry company had a heavy weapons platoon with 3x60mm mortars. Every Infantry battalion had 6x81mm mortar teams with a Jeep and trailor for each one.)
and where is my v2 so i can nuke london while playing versus brits?!?!? 
still i would like to see volks reworked, they were mostly given automatic weapons because they require much less skill than bolt action rifles |
You do know that schreck blobs kills infantry quite effectively right? If you got 3 okw schreck squads, and if they all fire a volley at one squad, it will probably kill half the guys because schrecks are like snipers. Then the remaining assault rifles on the other two guys in each squad can do pretty good work on a remaining squad members. So they can kill infantry quite decently and they are not that handicap.
Will a USF rifleman bar blob have much issue? Not really. But that's also looking to have a battle of the blobs, which USF will probably lose to a bumbar or a stuka.
Now if any armor rolls through, one volley from those three squads will insta kill most tanks.
Though I only play 3 vs 3. I'm sure it's much different in 1 vs 1 if you go blob scheck heavy...yeh I guess you wouldn't have much else then.
true its alot different in larger gamemodes, but 3 shrek squads should win versus 1 rifle squad (your example). and believe me if you got 3 rifle sqauds with bars (since he inevstes muni into his inf too) and you focus fire 1 volk squad it will drop FAST  |
Go ahead and provide some facts or stats or observations as to why you dont think Ost is NOT balanced?
im not disagreeing that Ost is pretty balanced but some other factions are UP or OP but still there is on thing that buckles me: burden of proof
you made the claim, you need to prove it, not the other way around mr churchill.
