Profile of Stark

As much as model 24 grenade looks interesting can you convince me why would it be better/more desirable to use rather than a normal rifle nade?

Plus G43 don't fit to german infantry commander design. It's more elite and unique weapon for soldiers and it's already in too many doctrines

Your idea of a Panzer Elite commander is very good, but it gives me another idea on how the PE could really be brought back into a single commander, at least sort of. Of course this is just entirely my opinion.

223 Command Car - From SnakeEye's "All Units" mod, capable of capturing and locking down territory in order to increase resource production. The PE as well as the OKW are not able to build Observation points or resource caches respectively so this would be a nice addition to the OKW, of course you would be securing territory but for a cost of manpower, fuel and population cap space.

251 Halftrack Mechanized Group - The 250 is open topped, comes armed with double MG42s, perfect for supporting your Panzergrenadiers, can also drop med packs since the PGs won't have med packs like the Sturmpioneers in order to heal on the move, similar to the USF Mechanized Company M3 Combat Group Call in. The Panzergrenadiers inside would be an expensive alternative to both the Sturmpioneers and Volksgrenadiers. 4 or 5 man squad armed with Kar98ks initially, could be upgraded with StGs or Panzerschrecks similar to the Stormtroopers and they can also only repair vehicles.

Jagdpanzer 38(t) "Hetzer" - firing the normal Panzergranate, cheaper non-tech alternative to the Jagdpanzer IV.

Repair and Recovery 251 Halftrack - also like the 223 being able to lock down is present in SnakeEye's "All Units" mod, can recover German vehicle wrecks in order to get them fully operational again, impedes an economic debuff according to the vehicle in order to be balanced, that meaning that recovering a Panzer IV would be a lot cheaper than a King Tiger for example.

Tiger I - Same as your idea, reason for it is the same as the AT Hetzer above.

This is inspired by the Ostheer Mechanized Assault doctrine together with the Panzer Elite's concept and of course what's possible from the All Units mod in order to cram the PE into a single commander, more or less.

I think that the light vehicles would be the most interesting things here since they would be able to cover some of the OKW's draw backs, especially the 223 with it's locking down of sectors and the 250 Ambulance being able to reinforce on the move, or at least being a bit more mobile.

Alternatively the Repair and Recovery 251 can be replaced by some sort of Artillery strike, similar to the Ostheer Mechanized Assault doctrine.

Like I said this is just my opinion, cheers.

I suggest to add:
1. some ammo ability - strafe, barrage, smoke or samething like that. Commander is too MP intensive currently.
2. What about upgrade for 251 HT which would make it a ostheer mortar HT? Commander ability stays as it is but add a upgrade that HT can be changed in mortar ht (for X ammo) but looses their core abilities to reinforce and heal. Mobile indirect fire would make this unit better more desirable. Again it would be inspired by PanzerElite concept.

But generally imo it's really good commander design. GJ

This is completely unacceptable. I just looked at Semoskiy in automatch and just GG'd. 55 seconds in I typed GG and dipped out. No way I am playing that map ever. Worst sector layouts of all time! PLEASE REMOVE THIS MAP! PLEASE! PRETTY PLEASE!

Or at least fix the distances...HOLY SHEEEEEIT! North is insta-lose.


WHY IS THERE NO RIOT ON HERE TO GET THIS REMOVED OR FIXED?

I will make a good version. But I would rather it just get removed.

There was for few years since it was added to the map pool. It map is horrible and many good players were consta saying that.

Few patches ago it was "fix" and "reworked" but effect wasn't good enough. This map needs even more changes.

Relic says it won't get removed so we must deal with it.

Impressive good changes - well seen in this map. Maybe it will become playable map after all (which i didn't really believe). Really good job.

Moving the key houses that they aren't so important makes this map more desirable for brits. Removing red cover on base area is lowering the chance of lucky shot, reducing size of bushes also gives more space and manoeuvrable.

Few things though (becouse i can't text only sweet worlds )

1. Right VP - you remove the house - good idea, it was needed. But the area looks really empty now, i can see something lacking there. I would suggest to fill that space with more yellow cover.

2. Bushes and trees on a both cut offs (north and south) - can you reduce the size of it? Trees are too high which reduce the sight of the map - i know it's 3d game i can rotate the screen but imo on every perspective it confuses the player and makes harder to manoeuvre units.

3. It the road doesn't give red cover should it look like a road. The game design cover is what you see. Therefore road logicly should always give red cover. Visual changes would be welcome


BTW can you give us information what other 2v2 and 1v1 map are you currently working on? Can you say what map will be removed?

So far good job @Sturmpanther

Currently the only close combat elite infantry often used in game are commandos - thanks to a cammo and powerfull granade they are relaly effective squad - they are way above other equivalents in other factions

I think shocks have a similar problem like assault grens. Both are quite decent at vet0 vs other vet0/vet1 squads. Thing is that later game there is no place for them ig. Being sneaking late game is really hard becouse most of sight blockers are already destroyed.

For example How can assualt grens match close range riflemen with double bar? They can't becouse how could them if riflemen spend 120 ammo for an upgrade. Basic infantry is good enough to deal with them.

If you playing teamgames you rather go guards and fight on a distance and count on your ally - UKF player who gets commandos.

IMO what those two close combat units (shocks and assault grens) should have ammo upgrade which would give them RA buff - but available later stage of a game (let's say after reaching t4). Therefore they should be more welcome later game and not overpower in early stage.

Anyway something most be done becouse guard meta is too dominant right now and it's way to boring
