Profile of Tiger Baron

This has been brought up before a long time ago but to answer the OP's question of a nerf aura for blobs -

A friend of mine implemented something like it in his CoH mod. Problem is you cannot assign an aura to a squad but to an entity, as in the infantry models in said squad. It works, however if you thought the game was not optimized before you're gonna get a headache now because this puts extra strain on the CPU since now it needs to recalculate each infantry model's aura on the map to detect if there is another infantry model near it to apply a debuff.

1v1s might not suffer as much but you can probably imagine what that would mean for higher game modes and especially 4v4s.

This is of course putting it all in layman's terms but it's the best I can do.

Most Soviet tank crews would be lucky if they had a single radio set, even if it wasn't in working order.

As far as gameplay goes tho, yeah I guess if there was some toggle ability like on the "Command" Tiger where it disabled the guns but had a command aura, I can definitely see it working. I'd honestly rework the rest of the command vehicles as well instead of just having these command auras that are blob magnets on treads but oh well.

I would trade exit speed for animations if they automatically began repairs and then reentry.

Automatic repairs and then reentry is actually possible modder side right now even.

I asked Codiex on Steam, a well known CoH and CoH2 modder for a script that does exactly that a long time ago for a mod I was making but sadly have lost the files since it's been a while.

Would be a nice QoL change in my opinion as well.

King Tiger Ace and King Tiger Command Tank -

If any more new commanders are ever added I think this would be a good fit for them. The King Tiger Ace will be based on Kurt Knispel, part of the 503rd Heavy Tank Battalion that fought at both the Eastern and Western fronts and is the top scoring tank ace to date. I think it would be a nice twist on the Tiger Ace and a new addition to the OKW.

King Tiger Command Tank would be for the Ostheer as that would be a nice little way to add a KT to the Army in my opinion. Same as the Command Tiger, has a toggle for commander aura. Fun fact: You can already use something like it using Cheat Mods, it was used in the Ardennes Assault campaign or something.

Armored Riflemen -

Long ranged oriented mechanized riflemen squad equipped with an M1919A6 LMG and carried by an M3 Halftrack. The core opposite to the Cav Riflemen.

Would give another mechanized sort of commander a unique squad to play with.

Churchill Kangaroo -

You wanted something funny so here it is. Inspired by the Wikinger boys' work:



Heavily Armored personnel carrier of sorts, can carry like 2 squads and protect them from a large manner of enemy ordinance.

Advanced sWS package -

Allows OKW HQ halftracks to be able to carry and reinforce infantry. Something "funny".

I got some more but these are the ones off the top of my head for now.

I only wish they could just pack up and move like in the All Units Mod.
