Thread: OKW Rework20 Apr 2016, 07:15 AM I'm not relying on the Mechanized HQ pioneers to repair all my vehicles lol. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: OKW manpower hack14 Apr 2016, 10:38 AM Sort of unrelated post but I would trade Panzershreck removal for Flak HT penetration buff and setup time removal. Also I think Sturmpioneers could be replaced with Volksgrenadiers as the OKW starting unit. Any other nerfs would be too much considering that OKW isn't exactly overperforming as a whole.

Thread: Jagdtiger Balance for 3v3+14 Apr 2016, 10:26 AM I'd say the best way to fight a Jagdtiger is just not play into its strengths. Don't, for instance, buy a lot of Jacksons to fight it. A Jagdtiger can't fight infantry at all and it can be swarmed by large numbers of fast and cheap tanks like M-10s and Cromwells. Still, there's no getting around the fact that a properly protected Jagdtiger is incredibly powerful in 4v4s. Might be a balance issue but not a very big one imo and only in big team games. Also, I'm really not sure how you would redesign this unit. imo the Jagdtiger does exactly what it's supposed to do - act like a mobile PaK43 with heavy armour - and not a lot more. Maybe a slight range nerf but that's about it. Oh yeah, and I remain unconvinced that the crew shock mechanic is actually a good idea. I'd rather see it get removed and the Jagdtiger get a health nerf or something. Jump back to quoted post14 Apr 2016, 10:06 AMRedT3rror You don't seem to be familiar with the HE ability at Vet1. It has a 125 range and it bascially counters it's counter: AT guns. Bahahaha. No. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: AoE damage found too deadly to elite infantry.14 Apr 2016, 01:07 AM The Pack Howitzer is the biggest offender here imo. That thing can kill three or even four models fairly consistently, which is a big problem for units like Fallschirmjagers. I've seen the King Tiger insta-wipe British four-man squad too.

Thread: Which doctrines to choose13 Apr 2016, 09:41 AM Scavenge is the only OKW doctrine I think should always be in your loadout. All the abilities here are useful. Luftwaffe just never works for me. Fallschirmjagers always look like this great option, but they bleed like crazy and get wiped a lot. Breakthrough is extremely good (probably the best) if you're playing 4v4 or something. I've found a few uses for the Jagdtiger in 1v1 but they're generally few and far between. Only other good ability here is Panzerfusiliers - which is a very good ability, mind you. I'm not a big fan of Spec Ops but the Command Panther is decent if you're playing some sort of extended Med/Mech build and need heavy armour. Otherwise meh - and I'm unconvinced that infrared StGs are really that great. Can't comment on the other doctrines. In: OKW Strategies
Thread: OBK Explanation 13 Apr 2016, 09:23 AM Multiple Vickers (at least two) into emplacements or multiple Vickers into Cromwells is typical. Trying to fight OKW with just infantry sections early in the game is really difficult (British infantry have trouble with OKW grenades and Sturmpioneers) - though once upgraded, infantry sections can more than handle themselves. Persoanlly I think Cromwell spam is really the way to go. They're good against OKW infantry and are significantly cheaper than comparable OKW armour. In: UKF Strategies

Schultz The only thing that can be done is to change how the squad's formation is. Any other changes would simply end up in making an entirely new issue involving all explosive units rendered useless, and all elite units being, well... too elite. Change received accuracy to received damage? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviets - Too Strong10 Apr 2016, 06:55 AM Jump back to quoted post10 Apr 2016, 06:52 AMSvanh I apologise if you already know this but you can simply increase the reinforcement cost percentage of the Maxim squad instead of changing every support weapon. No I know. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviets - Too Strong10 Apr 2016, 06:04 AM All I would do to fix Soviets make it so all support units use the (Squad Cost/Squad Members/2) reinforcement cost formula. This would cause support weapons to bleed more manpower when their crew members are killed. Although this change would affect all factions, it would have the greatest impact on the Soviets thing as they rely so much on team weapons like Maxims. Right now reinforcing Soviet team weapons costs very little so killing crew members doesn't really accomplish much of anything. Otherwise Soviets are pretty balanced imo. T-34/76 could cost less manpower or something ... KV-1s suck ... SU-76 might need a small nerf ... Soviet T4 is kinda useless unless you have T-34/85s. Also, I think Soviet T1 is just poorly designed and can't really be fixed. In: COH2 Balance
