Thread: Give OKW flame nade a tech cost?30 May 2018, 06:13 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2018, 00:53 AMShadowLinkX37 So say you change it back to model 24 frags and this happens again, thats ok though because you can just clear it with the LeIG. Yes that's a wonderful way of again making OKW t2 completly unviable on a garrison map because none of the T2 units can clear worth a damn. Wrong, T2 has a certain unit call... Stuka! And yes it cleans houses and, incredible enough, usually force retreat! In: COH2 Balance

The 190 MP and 30 fuel would have been spend anyway on the Platoon Command Post so it is no extra cost + UC is the cheapest Flamethrower Vehicle in game but still very potent So we could do the same for the flamnade, behind T1/T2 building.

Thread: Why the current popularity of Moblie Defense?29 May 2018, 09:38 AM Jump back to quoted post29 May 2018, 09:13 AMJoshua85 Ah yes. Conscript support might actually find relevance for the first time in the history of coh2 It's is actually not bad now that it has the KV-1 to bolster the late game. The rapid conscription is still quite good, although it is now only a shadow of its former self and the incendiary is going to be great for breaking up a PAK wall before rushing through with armor. I might actually test this one out I bought Conscript (with in-game currency) because of that. I wanted to test the KV1 a bit more some weeks ago, was using the Guard doctrine in many games and finally faced a dual pak barrage. I won the game but was concerned about how pak counter so well the KV1, so I had the idea to sneak around the store to see if there was more KV1 commanders and found Conscript Support. Hell a commander allowing you to spam Conscript + PPSH and incendiary barrage AND KV1, it made my day! Now I'm not a super ranked Soviet player, don't know how it performs on highest level but I'm making my way to top 200 and I hope soon enough top 100. In: Ostheer Strategies

Surely he wants one that also gives the ppsh assault package? He uses Guard rifle combined arms, but I haven't see him using guards in number, max 1 squad. I like Conscript Support because of the combo you can do with a KV1 rushing in a middle of an incendiary arty strike. KV1 has replace Hit the Dirt in both doctrines. In: Ostheer Strategies

So once again we go back to Guards rifle being meta for soviets I haven't see Von using a lot Guards in those sessions. Guards are damn expensive and I don't know if you trade very well vs multiple 222 and a 251FT, remember they have been nerfed in this patch while 222 have been buffed. I think you really need a Zis (probably two), some mines and Atnade to quickly end an overextending 222. In: Ostheer Strategies

Soviet counter is duck your head until you can field a KV1 (includes having a KV1 commander on your loadout). Pumas can't do shit vs KV1, even Stugs have problem to penetrate it.

This last patch made the early to mid very easy for wehr is all I have to say. It's just now if you do make it to the lategame, the ultra late game tank call-ins will be stopped by pgrens with shreks. VonIvan has a lot of subs He is also the one who found the counter with Soviet... In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: Mobile Defence doctrine29 May 2018, 06:15 AM Jump back to quoted post28 May 2018, 19:50 PMmr.matrix300 I just tested Command tank vs 2 Rifles with Zooks . One Rifle squad was in yellow other one in green cover . Each squad lost one man and the CT got destroyed Yes and you can destroy a stationary SturmTiger with a pair of zook as well, doesn't mean it counter it. Puma are squishy until the CP hits the field and then that's another story... In: COH2 Balance
