Command panther is pretty broken in 2v2. It in combo with a teamates jagdtiger or elephant is broken as shit it means you dont get to use any armor but they do. Double comets is not going to do crap with those two combos or even command panther in combo of a teamates KT because as soon as they apear to get a shot in there gonna be at half hp instantly.

It also near impossible to try and flank the command panther or any axis armor with cmd panther on the field because of cheap spammable flares that can be used anywhere on the map and the cmd panthers vision itself.

The flares should be like riflemen flares and have to be deployed by volks.

@Rocket Wait....are you saying you want emplacements to get an overall buff? All that is going to do is cause static game play all day.

@LoopDloop USF fighting position is not very vulnerable to small arms fire. If you garrison one RE squad you can push off any infantry squad easily (except maybe double shreked PGs). Or if you upgrade it the attacking squad won't even be able to approach. The fighting position absolutely does not need to be immune to small arms fire.

Thats not true at all i use them all the time sturms and falls easily beat the RE inside it and then can destroy the fighting position realitively quickly wich has actually fucked me over a few times as i could not get rifle support in time and it dosent matter anyway small arms shouldnt dmg the fighting pit at all imo if im going to spend mp and munitions to build one it shouldnt be countered that easily with them not investing and doing nothing. Or say maybe they just garrison a building next to a fighting position. Sometimes ues the RE will throw rifle nades but there not brain dead they just jump out and back in. Same with them throwing them at units outside the position... They simply move away from the rifle grenade. There is no reason why small arms should do dmg to fighting position at all.

Small arms dont do shit to axis bunkers.. Btw how much dmg does conscript molotov to do them last i remembered it was very litte if at all (incendiary nades almost kill positon with just one)

No not encouraging static gameplay really but okws flak emplacement should be more usefull and so should USF pit more on par with ost bunker. The .50 cal is ok but it cannot really stop big blobs because of it comming late and fighting infantry already vetted. I use usf emplacement almost every game its a huge deterrent to stop fuel harrassment or muntions then you just got to be ready to have a counter for 222 or luchs when it comes to destroy it. Late game it can be great at helping to win those matches that come down to close vp points.

Im not sure why a fighting pit is really deemed static gameplay i guess because it cant move and has no pop cost? But what do you call axis mgs that can actually pin entire blobs in a couple burst and camp on their fuel or vp?? Hell the fighting pit is way more easily countered than both 42 and mg because they can move and it cant im not talking about the bofors here.

Why can sturmpios and falls kill this just by standing behind it and attacking it with small arms. Seems a bit rediculous I am pretty sure assualt engineers or any allied infantry does 0 dmg to bunkers (with out at weapons or nades). Also 1 volk incendiary nade can detroy it by itself or close to it especially if it has even a little dmg to it before hand.

Small arms should never be able to destory it and incendiary nades do way too much dmg to it. All for them making okws flak emplacement more usefull as well, this is just something annoying I never thought was right with the usf emplacement. Also could use a little better pin late game okw infantry can still just run up on the cap with out a doubt decap the point or even cap it under fire the whole time before being red pinned. Just at least no dmg from small arms.

Yellow cover, which is created by craters from explosions, tend to occupy a great deal of the map by the lategame. Demo charges, by the way, create heavy cover.

Yellow cover reduces accuracy by 50% and reduces suppression by 50%. This is what makes it a challenge to suppress squads as quickly in the lategame, especially with anything that isn't the MG42. The rest struggle entirely to apply suppression faster than their target recovers.

But there have been constant bugs with (re)crewing weapons. It's hard to determine ingame, much like when veterancy was broken.

But from what you described, that definitely sounds like one of the myriad of bugs that (re)crewing weapons has had. Get a replay demonstrating this so that it could be determined to be a bug, or just a form of really really bad RNG with inaccurate conscripts.

Both times it happened the infantry it was firing at was not vetted or not very vetted as it happened early in the game. I had units (scripts, engis) in front of protecting it. I could even tell the mg42 to focus on one unit and it would basically do nothing. It did seem as if it was doing dmg but it definately would not pin a squad for the ENTIRE rest of the game and never did from first recrewing it. I also neither time used it until i first retreated it and reinforced it because it gives you 6 squads members. Both times I had them around for quite a while, in one game it survived the entire game and got to vet 2 but like i said it would not pin a single squad whatsoever no matter what.

Ill try to get a replay next time, but like i said it was a bit of a big deal obviously when an ost player loses a 42 close to the start of the game and you get it and turn it on them as we know its the best mg in the game in general especially as far as defending ground.

also is that suppose to happen< both times when i recrewed it, it then had 6 members I thought they stopped that a long time ago I havent played soviets in a while and wont always steal the weapons

Noticed this twice now and it made a relatively big impact on my games. Both times I stole an mg42 with conscripts. After I retreated it, it would no longer pin enemy squads what so ever. Like literally firing at them for 30 secs not even vet and it will not pin them down at all. Not sure if this has been posted before.
