Thread: Fixing Volks - MP40s for shrecks1 Feb 2016, 00:24 AM Volksgrenadiers keep panzerschrek upgrade. Replace incendiary grenade with what they had before. Combine MP40s with incendiary grenades into 1 upgrade as a CQB package. How to balance... Prices or damage nerf maybe. I was thinking of a way to rework the OKW faction to form a good contrast with the British and United States. Then I was looking at the the German Armies of the Western Front and how it's soldiers fought from Normandy up to the Siegfried Line campaign. You know how brits have the hammer and anvil strategy but are defense and support minded... (question mark key doesn't work) You know how usf has to be mobile and aggressive all of the time... I think OKW should be redesigned to match them both. It's like this: Select 1 of 3 divisions or strategies to alter your unit selection and overall battle strategy. OKW itself is supposed to be aggressive by design but this gives them a couple different options. Each division will alter your selection of vehicles,support weapons and infantry and even some abilities in order to relate to the division or strategy selected. You get some bonus units too. Panzer Division=Offense by faster mobilization of armor and elite infantry making this high risk high reward. I mean that as in, you can potentially end a game quickly but if you mess up it will be very difficult to get back. Kinda stupid, still working out the kinks. References Battle of the Bulge from my perspective. Armored push to game changing objective and such... I'd include some light air support and panzer crews. Infantry Division=Mixes of support,offense,defense with more effective infantry support weapons like pak38 50mm and mortars. Maybe Jaeger light infantry could become non-doctrinal. Also adds Jagdpanther as an alternative to the King Tiger, Marder 3, as well as a weapon dropping vehicle that can provide zb30 lmgs and panzerschrek crates. References Normandy and Market Garden what with containing a major allied assault. Might include an Officer squad, artillery radiomen and possibly a sniper or recon motorcycle. Luftwaffe land division=Primarily defensive with some heavier emplacements and reinforced defenses. Includes some luftwaffe infantry, hotchkiss tanks and scavenged or non-german technology. Will include the versatile Flak 88 and maybe the Wirblewind. Might add weapon drop vehicle to this instead, as well as Bergepanzer. Perhaps infantry can reinforce the structures they garrison... Luftwaffe infantry can build some kind of structure which allows 1 infantry unit at a time to transport itself to any neutral structure on the map. Think of this division as references to the Battle of the Scheldt or the Siegfried Line campaign. Being defensive minded, your Luftwaffe infantry could be capable of setting up pillboxes or support weapon dug outs. Difficult to make this non convoluted... In: COH2 Balance

Thread: OKW Incendiary grenade needs to be looked at28 Sep 2015, 05:56 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Sep 2015, 05:53 AMChunkeemunkee88 Just think about how much damage incendiary nades already do to infantry and cover. They would be used a little bit less when combined with the cost of throwing them. If it's still too much then the MP40s they get will have them be more close quarters viable since they have to close in on the enemy and are now unable to throw incendiaries more often than usual. This way the volks get their old grenades and volks with cqb become viable against cover/defenses and your sturm pioneers don't have to take unnecessary risks later on. Or your can just place them in front of the volks grens as usual and have them be wiped by snipers, mortars, mgs, bren carriers, conscript blobs molotovs rinse and repeat... Sturm pioneers as you know can be very expensive. I pressed the wrong button.....damn.... In: COH2 Balance

Thread: USF thoughts?28 Sep 2015, 05:34 AM I still think usf should get something like where shermans could get a 76mm gun or scavenged materials for a little extra protection. Other USF vehicles and units should be able to get something identical. Some thing that improves either damage or defense. It makes them more customizable and brings them into the later stages of a battle at the same time. The general premise is something akin to the hammer and anvil thing that the brits have. Since the americans had a massive industrial base the USF could maybe have choice between increased artillery or airpower...More direct fire or more indirect and suppresive fire... The increased ability to personalize your units might also make them more micro intensive but it might encourage more blobs... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: OKW Incendiary grenade needs to be looked at28 Sep 2015, 05:22 AM Why not put incendiary nades in some kind of CQB package??? Arm Volks squads with Mp40s and incendiary nades for like I dunno 50-100 munitions or something? It gives them a close quarters advantage so your sturms dont have to be sacrificed. Not to mention having sturms focusing on capping, repairing and setting up defenses is what they are meant to do. Giving the Volks grenadiers the cqb package makes them a good distraction at best since your enemy's infantry will be to busy moving about to get a good shot off. Not to mention volks are pretty squishy to begin with so I think it could even out a little bit. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: A Brit Balance Thread. (yes, another)28 Sep 2015, 05:10 AM Make tommys capable of tanking a hit or two by decreasing enemy hit chances slightly or upping their hp. Get rid of those slow as heck scoped enfields, buff their bren guns, eliminate their mp suckage. Give rifle nades so they have some kind of fire power or mills bombs right at vet 1. Or maybe they should get sprint on account of needing to SPRINT FROM COVER TO COVER IN ORDER TO STAND A CHANCE! Give the sniper a choice between AT rifle or a scoped lee enfield. From my personal experiences he is meant only for slowing enemy units down not halting an entire advance. Giving him a scoped enfield will allow him to counter snipe and be much more adaptable if not more useful. His at rifle can stay as is. Infantry should be able to fire out of the bren carriers. Cromwell should get an armor reduction and a tiny speed or rof boost. Its a cruiser tank after all... Sherman Fireflies are tank snipers but the tulips are the only thing that hurts anything. Decrease reload time or up it's cannon's accuracy or firing distance. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Those stupid leiG spam28 Sep 2015, 04:47 AM I had built a mortar pit and bofors as the brits with a centaur and wasp nearby and out of no where a bunch of volks and panzer gren blobs start tossing those stupid incendiary grenades and giving my Centaur a panzerschrek bukkake after their buddy's 3 or 4 ISG's savagely pound my defenses bringing them down to like 20% health. They were on brace mind you and then to make matters worse whilst my engies were repairing them the incendiary nades melted them like butter: all 3 of them... After that a damned fallschirmjager squad comes up to my fresh tommies and kills them all in 2 seconds. Then they panzerfaust my wasp and proceed to bomb the hell out my other brit ally's position. My Soviet ally spams katyushas forcing them back but then a bloody hoard of panthers and a king freakin tiger comes along...By this point ive only like 1 cromwell and 2 new tommy squads with piats... Guess what happens next??? The isg spammer and his buddy's own arty target my tommys ripping them to shreds in 2 seconds flat whilst another fallschirmjager comes around. Pounds my cromwell from behind and the king tiger proceeds to re-enact a prison shower scene with it...go figure... In: COH2 Balance
Thread: USF and potential suggestions for its Design28 Aug 2015, 07:36 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Aug 2015, 06:33 AMThe Big Red 1 i would prefer they add the pershing because we already seen the leaked alpha footage of it and the sherman jumbo was "not" a heavy tank per se but a medium tank with extra armor. make no mistake i would love to see the sherman jumbo in the game along with the chaffee and the hellcat I would like to see it to, however you might also note that there are always units,models and skins left out for fear that they might become over powered, unfinished or become the result of just plain old laziness. I can think of no other situations where a Pershing had the same effect on the battlefield as a tiger, is2, churchill ,Sherman Jumbo or kv series tank. They all were fielded in greater numbers and were ultimately most notable in battlefield engagements. The video of a pershing (in cologne I think) was the only engagement worthy of notice in my opinion. The jagdpanther was more notable than the jagdtiger and the jagdtiger was just a massive scrap heap with a big gun and too many problems to even consider it's usage. However this is a game, not real life...such a shame. The elephant/ferndinad was fielded in larger numbers and so was the jagdtiger and king tiger in comparison to the 36 or so Pershings that had actually be fielded. Also understand how many jagdtigers and king tigers were abandoned or destroyed by their own crews. The Sherman Jumbo is much more worthy since it is medium tank with heavy-duty armor and the little extra upgrades that can be applied to it (as I had mentioned) would make it even more effective and lovable . The USF is supposed to "Bend but not Break and be Mobile and Versatile" the Pershing might just make the USF another *-Spam heavies and win- kind of faction. Again the Pershing might be an awesome addition but through world war 2 and in the game I found US soldiers had to make do with what they could get their hands on until their supply lines could catch up. They were constantly over-stretched...Note: Patton stalling near the German border and the western allies not opening up the channel ports as they should have. In: Lobby
