Oh god please give my Rear Echelons flamers, I can get 8 of those bad boys with flamers and zooks I could watch the tears of everyone.

In other words, giving flamers to rear echelons is just a silly idea. Rear Echelons are potent enough in the early game without getting flamer throwers, in fact flamer throwers would mean echelon spam would be viable into mid and late game. That's not what I reckon anyone would want the standard meta to be, especially with how much they cost now.

To be honest Riflemen are fine. Grenadier LMG's dissuade them from closing in for Ost Heer and once OKW gets their Obers out the Rifle flamers stop being as potent.

what if:
- while abandoned, tanks get reduced armor value
- you can only reclaim an abandoned tank only after 100% repairing it

Someone would probably complain that repair speeds are too RNG based and that it breaks the pacing for esports... because you know, having everything being predictable makes for some thrilling sport. I watched a thrilling game of Chess recently, thank god it's so predictable so my adrenaline levels never got pumping.


ON a serious note, it's fine. It adds excitement into the game and provides some emergent objectives. Making sure your enemy can't recover that tank leads to interesting objectives that aren't forced. It leads to interesting scenarios were both sides are seeking an abandoned King Tiger in no mans land, both know it's a game decider and want to capture it, the rush of adrenaline when you succeed or fail is amazing, by stripping that out you remove an exciting and unique piece of game play.

That's the biggest problem I have with people who push for the removal of RNG from the game in the name of E-Sports. One of the reasons I love watching CoH is for the thrill of watching RNG push back and forth, then seeing how the best players react and adapt to said RNG. It's why Starcraft is boring to me, everything is predictable.

I'll take a look at your replay as well just to give an extra eye on it.

Relic over nerfed the British? I wonder why...

cue 100 "Bren Carrier is so OP why can't I kill with bolt actions" threads

They should of kept it the same but make it cost more. Making it a choice between a strong early game but a late transition, or a weak early game but a fast transition. As of now it's just another cool aesthetic unit that is terrible at doing stuff.

Hello and welcome, always good to see a new face even if that new face was just hiding in the background . OFC hype is real.

Anyway, may all your posts be great.
