The main thing is USF is assuredly the weakest faction in game right now. They can work but with OKW and OST changes they have no strength even in early game. Thanks to OST manpower, MG42 buffs, and 222 changes USF is basically fighting a uphill battle. If you win your side you can win but it really is up to your Soviet teammate to keep you in the late game. If you don't have a good teammate your micro better be top notch. At least getting games with enemies and teammates around the same skill level now which is a small comfort.

I do recall that in WFA beta the 50.cal had Armoured Pierecing bullets similar of that of the MG42 Incendary Rounds expect at Veternacy 0. I really liked this idea as it did provide LT tier some light anti-vehicle play against OST and OKW. Right now, even with veternacy 3, a 50.cal does poor damage against enemy vehicles. Rather a pity considering it shot 12.7mm rounds.

Just like the DShK AP rounds, they are simply are worst than the MG42s Incendiary Rounds for whatever absurd reason. I would like to see Relic test it out similar to the mod of July 21s. Give it back AP rounds starting off or unlocked past Veterancy. Damage and pen should be that of MG42s Incen. rounds. Let players test out Sept 3rd changes in a mod to see how much it'd effect the game.

Of what game modes are you looking into gent? I suppose I can scourge around and find some for 1v1 and 2v2 if you so desire.

Thank you for data Elchino7, quite a interesting chart as it shows less armour results in greater chance of penetration. Maybe Mark Target should decrease that targets armour as you said it would help out some off map abilities like IL-2 strafe with penning German tanks. I also assure you that I had no intent of stealing your idea haha. But on the chart it does certainly show a clear line with bonus damage and bonus penetration. Seeing that I feel it would be best considering how low the stock penetration of Soviets are. Particularly of the T-34-76s. Even if damage and 35% pen chance are the same number of shots when you throw in RNG it all gets thrown out of wak it terms of bonus damage. Of course it is the average like you posted.

What of PV Mark Vehicle? I am not familiar with that ability unless you mean Command Panther? That is quite the combo I recall basically two shot a KV-2 but it is a rare combo simply due the fact of needing two doctrines. Also of requiring a coordinated team but I am not saying that should be looked at as well. Considering I play every faction I would like to see things be given and taken from both Axis and Allied for a more even battlefield.

I would like to see the Panther Mark Target get tweaked as well due the high penetration of Germany weaponry. It's rather harsh give most of Allied tanks relative fragile armour. With the bonus damage OKW tear through those affected. But I'd suggest that be another topic considering this is of the Soviet Mark Target.
