Irrelevant.
Does not resolve, explain or justify the disparity in indirect fire options for the two factions at equivalent tiers.
That comment regarding Mortar HT made me laugh out loud, for real. Are you incapable of the logic and pattern recognition required to recognise the immediate and apparent asymmetric relationship between the Mortar HT and 120mm as doctrinal options?
Mortar HT has absolutely nothing to do with either of the non-doctrinal Barrage options Sov has. Do I have to draw you a fucking schematic?
Please do. What "immediate and apparent asymmetric relationship" reads like is "they obviously have something in common but they're still different" which pretty much says fuck all.
My point is still that you cannot simply compare a single part of the faction in a vacuum when they are so different. Since you apparently do not agree, comparing only a small group of units with a precise role to each other (indirect fire options) and single units and abilities (such as the molotov and rifle nade), I gave you an example of how the disparity in tank options for the two factions at equivalent tiers could balance out the indirect fire options. This I backed up with statistics, did I not? I did actually count the amount of tanks available.
Nice ad hominem btw. Appreciate it.
@Dave: good for you. iirc the Ostwind does decent damage to even the T-34, so why shouldn't I count it as one if I count the T-70 too?
