last thing we need is more stock heavies the stock USF lategame tank should be the M4A3E8 as should the T-34/85 be fore the USSR
If your going to put a heavy in the game, it should be tied to teching, not a call in. |

Ultimately the Pwerfer being shit only compounds the fact that Axis has little to no squad wipe potential like Soviets do. The ML-20 is better than the LefH, the Katyusha is better than the Pwerfer, all Axis has in the indirect department that's objectively better is the Mortar HT compared to the USF one and the Stuka, but even then it's costly enough for how well it preforms.
Blobbing is a huge issue for every faction in the game except maybe Ostheer due to it's lack of MP, but Soviets objectively have all the best tools to deal with it.
Would much rather see Axis indirect be brought up to snuff with the Pwerfer not being a Sturmtiger with no health, the LefH doing more damage than an AT gun, and the ISG not being unmitigated garbage. I don't care if it means Obers get removed or what ever, game would be much more fun if different factions didn't arbitrarily have units to fill rolls while others didn't. |

If your going to add the Pershing don't put it in a commander. Make it so you need to unlock all the American tiers first.
The KT is like how every heavy should be, tied to having all your teching done first to encourage people to actually play the game with their core units instead of pissing around waiting for a call in to win the game.
The only real exception to this would be Soviets, who should only have to get either T1 or T2 and T3 or T4. |
i guess you mean b4 when you say by far superior indirect fire and i agree about demo, but what other much stronger support weapons?
soviet just simply does not have an AOE suppression platform, M2HB is nice, needs support like HMG42.
The Maxim is currently the most durable and easy to use MG in the game, and the 82mm mortar's vet ability is excellent.
Soviets have the best blob counters in the game, not really much contest there. Axis doesn't have anything like the ISU or B4.

There is certain level of stupid that I won't respond to and instead just facepalm in silence 
Alex spam flood would be one of other examples.
Days with out Katitof mentioning me in a post despite having no relevance to the topic: 0. |
Besides the usual forum war, i'm delight by the amount of post on so little time this thread got.
PD: we have a new/old troll now here?
I don't usually play as USF but those numbers looks like crap. USF start with 10 fuel (?), LT cost 50, cpt cost 80, Major is 90 (?) and finally yes the Sherman is 110. I'll add 10 (ambulance) and even 25+ for nades/bars.
-10 + 50/80 + 90 + 110 + (10/25/35) + (20 if M20) =
>Fastest rush LT no ambulance, no upgrades: 50+90+110-10 = 240f
>>>Fast rush LT ambulance+nades/bar, LT: 50+35+90+110-10 = 275f
>>>>>M20 LT, ambulance, nade/bar: 50+20+35+90+110-10 = 295f
>Fastest rush Cpt, no ambulance, no upgrades: 80+90+110-10 = 270f
>>>Cpt and ambulance + nade/bar: 80+90+110+35-10 = 305f
I included just the respective only Tier costs for the unit. T3 for OKW and USF is 80 fuel to get you a major/schwer. |
i use katyusha dangerously close to the frontline when i want to use accurate barrage when i dont have access to concentrated barrage. and most of the times, i at least get my katyusha's target halfway between max and min range for better effect.
and no please. no other arty should copy stuka's model. pin point accuracy from max range? requiring two shots from tank to kill?
I meant in being more durable and mobile. The Stuka also has a loooong cool down to make up for firing more accurately (although it isn't pin point in accuracy anymore).
The Kat as you said operates normally at medium range just fine because it hits a larger area and fires it's rockets quicker (less hang time). It also denies territory which the Pwerf cannot do. |
risk v. reward. should be more like this imo.
If you made the Katyusha like it nobody would use the Katyusha.
The stuka should be the model of which all artillery is brought up to level with. The Katyusha is already a very efficient rocket artillery platform (even if it does use the incorrect truck model), but the Pwerfer is just as expensive but far far less efficient and easy to use. |

Good Axis long range units: The Stuka
not a very long list. |
|
The Rails and Metal panthers don't seem to provide cover either. |
