Thread: Stug IV22 Mar 2015, 16:10 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Mar 2015, 08:42 AMAustralian Magic When I think you can't say something more stupid, then you just surprise me. You want to say that Jackson requires less micro than Panther, Tiger, Elephant, Jadgtiger, IS2, ISU, SU or Jadgpanzer? Good one. And Jackson can't escape any sticky situation. 1 bad move, 1 bad lag, 1 bad pathfind and Jackson is gone while SU or Jadgpanzer can easily survive cause of HP or Armor. And how excatly you want to flank Jadgpanzer? Decent opponent will always keep close Volks. On maps like Hurtgen Forest Jackson is useless. Jadgpanzer completly denies it. Troi-Point and Hurtgen are almost unplayable for USF. ____ 240 Pen at max range for Jackson? So 280 at close range? A bit to big if we want 240dmg. 240 is OK but close range. At max distance 200 would be OK. ___ No need for Stug IV. Make Stug III pure AT with 60 range and penetration about 160/140/120. Did I compare it to a Tiger, Panther or any else of those things? No I did not. The strength of the Jackson is the fact it can fire on the move more accurately than any TD in the game while also having a turret so when your moving away from a dangerous situation you can keep the DPS up. The armor of a JPIV/Su-85 and health means jack shit unless you can kill what's hitting you, which the Jackson can actually do thanks to it's turret. It also has far more speed and acceleration than either of those to which means it can react much quicker to a dangerous situation. The SU-85 and JPIV can only survive 1 more hit to, that's it. There are no Axis tanks that do more than 160 damage barring the Heavies/Super Heavies. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: doctrinal units should22 Mar 2015, 16:05 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Mar 2015, 10:53 AMvan Voort No, it's clear by now that Alex choses to play a faction with abundant manpower to which 270 MP is nothing but refuses to employ a T0 unit that is easily expendable and can be based in a building to require no micro because it's not good enough for him. I literally just said that I use it conjunction with trenches, but not every map has abundant buildings. Why do you constantly act so sarcastic, it just makes you look like an ass when Iv already said exactly the opposite of what your straw manning me as. In: Lobby

Thread: Stug IV21 Mar 2015, 23:21 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Mar 2015, 23:18 PMG4bb4_G4nd4lf Put the goddamn PaK beside your Tiger then! Jeez... My point is: Support your tanks with ATGs to keep TDs (like the Jackson) at range and to ensure that your tanks can retreat safely when their health is too low. To bad the USF player has 1919 riflemen to ruin your PaK's day This discussion is honestly pointless, Ostheer T3 right now sucks because the Jackson does to much damage and comes in to fast while the StuG III and Ostwind are cost ineffective.

Thread: The B4 and Commander roulette21 Mar 2015, 22:58 PM If the Stuka Bombing strike is an issue for artillery why not make howitzers able to be slowly moved? They all have wheels and treads for a reason, they were able to be moved. Just make it slow, so if you are paying a attention you can get it out of the way, if you aren't you lose it like you should.

Thread: Stug IV21 Mar 2015, 22:40 PM Any discussion of Axis T3 will end in discussion of the unit that makes it non-viable. What the StuG III needs is armor/health buff. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Stug IV21 Mar 2015, 22:36 PM It will have over a 70% chance to pen the Panther and Tiger if it had 240 at max, it also get's 3 shot by 160 damage tanks and AT guns because it's weak armor is a trade off for it's far better mobility and the fact it has a turret! The JPIV has good frontal armor because it is the least mobile medium tank in the game, the Su-85 can sight for itself. Panthers/Tigers (and it doesn't even do a great job). Are you kidding? Right now at 240 damage, 2 Jacksons can take half the health off a Panther in the first volley, and almost half the health off a Tiger. The Jacksons issue is that it doesn't preform reliably versus heavy armor thanks to the poor ROF. The JPIV also has more armor and fights against tanks with less armor in general which makes it the best non-doc TD in-game IMO (even if the Jackson had 240 pen). So? It's very easy to flank due to having no gun traverse and very little mobility. Put a PaK behind your Tiger and see how the Jackson can't do anything. Okay and the Pak can't hit the Jackson because it only has 60 range will the Tiger is out in front, of course this also assumes no infantry are supporting your Jacksons. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Stug IV21 Mar 2015, 22:28 PM It will never not amaze me how people have no idea how trade offs work. The Jadgtiger has no gun traverse meaning you need to constantly stay on the ball in regards to turning it and facing it, while anticipating armor movements due to it's slow speed. That's called a trade off, every unit should have one. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Stug IV21 Mar 2015, 22:19 PM I agreed the Jackson needs some help, a small pen buff + better ROF with a damage reduction would make it do MORE DPS to tanks than it currently does, but would make it less stupid with the whole erasing mediums thing. And the Jackson is far more maneuverable than the JPIV and SU-85, it has best acceleration, max speed, and best deceleration. Plus it also has a turret which allows it to keep firing at enemy tanks while manuvering while the JPIV and SU-85 cannot. It also has far, far better accuracy on the move compared to the JPIV and SU-85. The lack of armor for the Jackson means jack shit, yes it gets penned easily, but if your charging your Jacksons into shrek blobs and not supporting them you deserve to lose it; why in gods name would volks even be a problem for you with squad wipe machines like the Scott, or BAR'd/1919's rifles or Para's.
