Add a Hold Fire option to the Ostwind.

Change its tooltip help to say it's "Effective against aircraft, light units, while stationary."

As it stands right now, I'd say the unit does underperform a bit, but the Ostwind does its role fairly well...while it's still. Once it starts moving, its crew has to be blessed by RNGesus for the vehicle to hope to kill two guys in a entire burst.

The unit seems to be intended as a more defensive one made to work together with other forces, as is fitting for the Wehrmacht faction. That's just fine with me, but it is inevitable for the unit to have to kite while engaged due to it having a completely normal range for tanks. This doesn't bother other AI tanks that fire single shells at a time very much as counting the reload timers for them is pretty easy to do, but the Ostwind fires in long bursts that makes it difficult to time stopping it between bursts for all of its fire to be shot optimally once enemies get in range. The similar Centaur can deal with firing in bursts far easier due its bursts being much shorter in duration.

Hold Fire would allow the unit to alleviate this weakness with micromanagement. Therefore, adding this small feature will let its users to deal with its most noticeable weakness by easing the possibility for them to control it around that weakness effectively while not outright changing the unit's current general concept and specifics.

If you want Japan, first play soviets and use conscripts, M-42 AT guns, booby traps and t-70s only.
There, authentic Japanese experience. See how you like it.

No Banzai, immersion ruined

I'd rather have a Riflemen with 2 zooks for 10 munis more than a 1 shreck Volk. If there is any infantry OP at the moment, it is undoubtedly Riflemen.

You'd pay 10 more munitions to lose 40% of your squad's AI power to get a 61% chance of doing 100 damage and 37% chance of doing 160 damage against a PIV at max range (assuming it hits) instead of saving 10 munitions and 20% AI power to get an 88% chance of doing 120 damage and a 12% chance of 30 damage (assuming it hits)?

Well, you really shouldn't.

I disagree. The most potent unit for the cost is the KT without a doubt, you don't even need your trucks still alive to bring it in and it has zero build time.

He probably meant in terms of general effectiveness rather than how it will perform if you have it, in which as good at the KT is, being able to using it hardly guaranteed compared to Volks.

I loved Market Garden in OF. I think it was very well designed.

I don't know why they left ToW. I for one loved it. There are a lot of possibilities for ToW. We could have a lot of battles there, without the difficulties of a full SP campaign.

Ah, see, from the Jerry side there's choices since they had to react to it.

From the British side, it's just Paras attacking and fending off counterattacks in towns and infantry+armour trying to link up ASAP.

Which...I'd frankly be fine with, I just feel like they would regard that as too little content variation.
