Functionally, exactly the same. Almost worse, If you consider it's easier for americans to feild way more at guns.
So OKW schreck blobs dead, but American AT blobs are ok.
All the answers for schreck blobs are the same answers to zook blobs.
Zooks are good but not good enough to blob with, as it almost feels like theres a 50% chance that it will bounce and getting a 280mp Rifle with solid AI and making it a dedicated AT unit is risky. Volks on the other hand are able to have a very effective AT threat with the shrek while also managing to retain a decent AI ability, which is unlike Rifles who basically need BARs to remain effective in later stages and zooks will make rifles lose engagements to Volks easily. |
If OKW schreck blobbing is an issue (I think it is an issue), why isn't the zook blobbing being treated as the same issue in a different faction?
It's essentially the same. Even if the Schrecks are better they are more expensive and limited to one.
Its not though |
What's the solution to American zookeepers blobbing?
Unreal Manpower bleed that will crush his economy harder than the 2008 Bank Crisis |
Have you considered that panther spam might not be the answer for every question?
Because I'm quite positive this is 4v4 question right there.

A lot of people consider Ostheer to be the most balanced faction in the game, but in many cases thats actually a bad thing. Currently they get overshadowed by strong factions and while Ostheer seems kinda prevalent throughout the game, they are never the strongest at any given point of the match, then they have options but even then they are mostly specialized and easily counterable by USF and Brits. The best fix for Ostheer would either be adding more health to the current 4 man squad or adding another member but adding another member means that Relic would have to rebalance the entire squad. |
You could say that but its both when Japan or Soviets involved (Countries that didnt sign the geneva convention) these things become hard to find, I cant find Americans helping Japanese Soldiers or Germans helping Soviet Soldiers (unless its 1939 and theyre invading Poland together) when both America and Germany signed the geneva convention but there is Chiune Sugihara that I know of (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiune_Sugihara) but would you consider this helping the enemy?
When you look at World War 2 and read everything about it you have to admit the Eastern Front and the Pacific was much more Brutal than the Afican or Western Front
Russian and Germans hated each other, Americans considered Japanese inferior savages and Japanese considered Americans huge evil demons. |
my suggested changes to it are
1 : feul cost addition. => 800 mp and 260 feul
2 : 50 sight nerfed to 35 like a normal tiger.
3 : health reduced from 1280 to 1040
4 : feul income cut by 50% instead of 90%
5 : no manpower income penalites
If the Tiger Ace wasn't viable, then now its definitely not viable |

Yeah the JP4 is a better SU-85, and is really strong against USF and other tank destroyer reliant factions ex: jp4 is really strong against a jackson or a su-85, but at the same time it doesn't make sense to spam Jp4s. And in a sense since its the cheapest OKW tank, it is much easier on the economy when you make a mistake with microing or the game decides to pathfind itself in the worst possible way. |
I've never referred to the brits as cancer.
I agree that the brits need some love.
I mostly play OKW and don't schreck blob.
Play OKW
Don't Shrek Blob
You can only pick one  |
To answer the OP:
The main thing that triggers me about the boFors is the same thing that triggers me with the schewer,
These orbital death cannons that not only deny important ground, but also make ballsy flanks impossible are so cancerous for gameplay.
"ballsy flanks are bad play", guess what ballsy flanking is what wins games. It's how you beat Brits. You can't do a deep flank against 6pdrs, vickers and whatever with a bofors in their back/frontline or you'll get molested on retreat or something. It forces frontal assaults which plays into Brit favor.
Same shit with OKW and schewer, except aggressive shwerers can be deleted easily by many allied "things". Axis arty sucks in comparison.
I didn't read through the thread because it will probably give me AIDS/athletes foot on my eyeballs, but anyone here defending bofors or stuff like it is an idiot. Plain and simple
Your just not smoking and flanking enough even if it has a 360 arc that can spin and face you before you can fire anything off. |
