Thread: Let's Talk: ISG Performance19 Jul 2016, 17:00 PM Jump back to quoted post19 Jul 2016, 16:37 PMZombiFrancis The awkwardness comes either in their timing or their performance. They aren't mortars, but they aren't artillery like the LeFH or any of the rocket artillery units. Trying to place them somewhere in that middleground is the awkward part. I personally would find ISGs performing as mobile artillery pieces, instead of glorified mortar teams with a different model, to work better. But my point is that they're awkward trying to be both, but acting as neither. Ya mean they should cost a lot more and perform a lot more? Probably can't for OKW, since ISG is too alone in OKW's unit list (making a higher cost more painful to wait for if they really need it) and arrives too early for that (ironically the opposite reason as well, since the artillery units can't be built off the bat for reason eh?). The concept could be possible for Pack Howi since now USF has a mortar to use, but turning it into that would probably Motor Carriage even less used. In: COH2 Balance

OKW loses incendiary grenades, T2 first become obsolete if the enemy gets an HMG in a good building. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: on the ptrs17 Jul 2016, 22:30 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Jul 2016, 22:13 PMUnited Guards>Shocks Guards get long ranged firepower and anti vehicle capabilities in one package. They can also "stun" any vehicle. Shock troops can only charge infantry and get shot. Its clear which unit scales and which falls flat. Maybe in some niche shocks perform better in some situation, but Guards 9/10 are better and recommended. Plus with Penals new performance Shocktroops anti infantry capabilities are worth less. Your logic doesn't exactly prove your conclusion in practice considering Guards are pretty clearly the least effective infantry AT in the game and Button's pretty up there with Volley Fire in general uselessness.

Thread: on the ptrs16 Jul 2016, 06:34 AM Button was long nerfed to be an ability that doesn't really work all that well even when the vehicle's engine-damaged. I'd say to buff it by making the combat penalties harsher, but keep the speed stuff exactly the same. Keep it a good tool for fending off flanking vehicles and perhaps give a noticeable edge in a fight against an engine-damaged vehicle, keep it away from the "lolstunlock" it used to do.

Thread: Mortar pit veterancy15 Jul 2016, 18:34 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Jul 2016, 18:31 PMBananenheld keep in Mind that mortar pit is atleast 1.5 mortars in Terms of dmg Output Never having to go out of combat to heal or retreat to be reinforced definitely helps there too. The Mortar Pit either gains vet constantly from the enemy having to walk in range, gains none at all from the enemy avoiding it, or dies. If it covers two VPs, the middle option goes right out.

Thread: Make Ostheer lategame great again!15 Jul 2016, 18:24 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Jul 2016, 18:16 PMsinthe Exactly. But the MP40 as a weapon is almost as good as the ppsh42 (I've shot both) and axis units with MP40 should perform a bit better at close range. If it was about as good why didn't the Germans make 5 million more of them? (not a serious response) In: COH2 Balance
