Profile of Tiger Baron

Should be replaced with Cavalry Riflemen if you ask me, if somebody wants the AE they can go Armored Company, I see no reason why not give them a unique campaign unit call in like Heavy Cav Company with their Rangers.

It would not only spice up Mechanized commander but it would also introduce a better synchro with the 76mm Shermans especially if you replace the Mortar HT with Armored Cav's Tank-Infantry support ability, forgot it's name.

Maybe a unique trait they'd have is be able to upgrade in the field instead of having to go to the base to arm themselves?

Give em like a 70 muni costing x1 Bar upgrade and a 60 muni costing x1 Bazooka upgrade, or a combined upgrade for like 120/130 muni that gives them both, whatever you guys think would be balanced.

And the Mortar HT is kinda overlapping with the infantry mortar which I think can be carried in the Cav Riflemen HT if I'm not mistaken so having a dedicated Mortar HT just doesn't seem feasible altho making sense since it's a Mechanized force that needs to constantly stay mobile.

Thanks in advance for reading.

Self-destruct button should be added to all emplacements for easier removal like the delete button in CoH, this has been done in several mods and the ability even exists in the game files since it was used for the OKW HQ trucks before.

Gliders on the other hand are counted as units so I don't see the point in having a self-destruct button for them.

They should be able to produce and reinforce all the units they spawn in friendly territory if you ask me tho.

As far as the Carrier goes, a Mortar actually was fitted on to it but it was on an Australian version on a longer chassis: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/29/Aust_3_inch_mortar_carrier%28AWM_134428%29.jpg

So no, it wouldn't be realistic or possible since you can't edit the actual models sadly.

If you want a mobile mortar check the link in my signature.

17 pounder needs a reduction in pop cap so I am not sure if that's counted as a QoL change but whatever, I think it's worth a mention.

And that's about it I think, I am totally fine with everything else with the Brits.

Well, a tank trap replacement for the fortified upgrade in the Advanced Emplacements doctrine would have been nice but eh... you can't have everything sadly.

Glad to see they listened to me and added a medic upgrade to the Forward Assembly tho.

Mechanized should definitely have Armored Rifles instead of the Combat Engineers and some Tank call in, maybe an M4A3E2 Jumbo to act as meatshields for the Jacksons? Or an upgrade to the M4A3s to give them some more armor and a better 76mm gun? I think there is already a model for that so it shouldn't be that hard.

The upgraded M4A3 still won't be as good as the E8s of course but better that than a 75mm gun that doesn't excel at anything at all.

After some discussions with my friend he noted that the drop is too weak and redundant.

He notes that the MG34 is too weak and should be replaced by an MG42 while the AT gun is redundant because of the Osttruppen's Panzerfaust plus more often than not you go for T2 to get Halftracks out so you can reinforce in the field which is a major problem if you don't, especially with Osttruppen.

His opinion is that it should be replaced by either a mortar (like in CoH) or a LeiG, I'd say that a Mortar would be more in line with the Wehrmacht/Ostheer, he just likes the LeiG more.

And as far as the Osttruppen themselves go, he notes that the MG42 upgrade is too inaccurate and it's accuracy shouldn't be nerfed to 50% less but more like 25% less or replaced with the Obers' MG34 upgrade, well not the same upgrade entity, just weapon, of course Osts would be OP while walking around and shooting the 34 on the move lol.

Other than that he says that Defenses and the new Officer are welcomed changes.

Edit: We also talked about it and I suggested that a Panzerbusche upgrade be added to the Osts which gives them 2 AT Rifles to scare off armored threats and pack more of a punch rather than just the Panzerfaust.

He liked the idea and after that I suggested an MP40 upgrade be added but he said that with the amount of inaccuracy the Osts have it wouldn't be effective, same as the MG42. My idea was for the user to have an option of some cheaper make-shift assault infantry in close quarter combat in city maps for example, that's all.

It's called desync and you can't fix it unless you get a better Internet connection or a better computer or just lowet your settings.
