Thread: OST Grens6 May 2019, 15:44 PM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 14:32 PMWarIdiot Imo Grens should be removed or replaced by panzergrenadiers as mainline infantry for ostheer like in the first coh, although weak at first they should atleast be better than the current grens and they become better and get abilities to increase their utility as you tech up. I thought axis are supposed to have superior elite infantry but lesser numbers than allied infantry but in its current state grens are just better conscripts but even conscripts now can kill 2 models of pgrens before losing and grens just don't have the numbers (and durability) to survive that long. While a sound idea for a nostalgic fuck like me it would sadly require a huge overhaul of the Ostheer tech and not to mention reshuffle of the units. The Panzer Elite pretty much had no other infantry apart from the Panzergrenadiers who were they're everything basically, besides team weapons of course. They also relied heavily on light vehicles and didn't have any good tanks apart from the Panther, I didn't really consider the Panzer IV F1 Stubby a proper tank. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Advanced Emplacements Regiment Redesign6 May 2019, 13:40 PM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 13:37 PMKatitof Tank traps is one of the most irrelevant abilities in game. I have never seen them used outside of sandbag replacement for USF. You want to nerf a doctrine hard, you remove 1 ability from it by giving it that. That's why I suggested they be bundled similiar to the rest of them, well apart from the USF ones, if they are introduced. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Advanced Emplacements Regiment Redesign6 May 2019, 13:09 PM The British Army is currently the only one without Tank Traps so I think that if there is ever such a rework that bundling it with something like the MG Bunkers would be a good move. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Ostrruppen 6 May 2019, 12:16 PM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 12:03 PMVipper My suggestion about Osttruppen would be remove LMG upgrade allow an upgrade in the same spirit to the one conscripts get in the patch. The Upgrade the unit to Ostlegionen/Osteinheiten could change the unit to remove the cover mechanism and perfome closer to conscripts. Could include target size 1, merge, grenade and maybe At riflers. I'm all for merge and AT rifles. In: Lobby
Thread: Ostrruppen 6 May 2019, 11:53 AM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 11:26 AMBalanced_Gamer Bolster Pios. Pios get 5 man option. Only limited to Pios. Not to grens also. Just pios seems like a good idea or replacement. Wait do you mean that idea someone mentioned about 5 man Panzerbusche 39 eqipped Pioneers? In: Lobby
Thread: "Lockdown" for AT units.6 May 2019, 11:51 AM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 11:22 AMHighfiveeeee That's literally what hull down was before its nerfs. Not double the firing speed but 25% faster I think. Still nobody used it (hence the nerf was also not needed IMO). I'm not sure if the mods allowed the tank to turn though. I'm not sure about the CoH2 Hull Down since I only rarely used it, mostly on my Panthers. If you're talking about the CoH stationary mode yes the tank can turn, tested it out yesterday like I said. Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 11:40 AMVipper One could test moving Tulips to Hammer and a lock down mode to Anvil increasing ROF. Yeah that sounds like a good idea. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Ostrruppen 6 May 2019, 11:13 AM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 10:00 AMBalanced_Gamer I think making them a default unit in HQ would be a nice option. They are not that much of a doctrine unit, considering doctrine units are expected to be usually powerful or of more usefulness. I think making it a default unit would be a great addition to Wehrmacht. What would they be replaced with in their doctrines then? In: Lobby
Thread: "Lockdown" for AT units.6 May 2019, 11:11 AM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2019, 09:51 AMKatitof Sounds like emplacements with extra steps. I prefer the term "mobile pillbox" but yeah you're technically right. It's basically the complete opposite of hull down, the unit is stationary but gets reload buff instead of defensive buff. And it's a hell of a lot more mobile than the 17 pounder so there's that, but also costs a lot more fuel. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: "Lockdown" for AT units.6 May 2019, 09:48 AM Hello, so I played the Blitzkrieg mod for CoH yesterday and I kinda got reminded of the "lockdown" ability that CoH and it's mods had. Basically it looks like this: Tank is rendered immobile (can only turn) but it's fire rate is doubled (I think?) which was applied to units such as the Panzer Elite's Marder III, Panzer IV F1 "Stubby" and Hummel. In the last one's case it was to improve it's range as well, similiar to the KV2's "Siege mode". Mods introduced this ability to the Firefly as well. So idea is pretty straightforward, Firefly could go 2 exclusive paths, Tulip rockets or the Commander allowing it to "lock down" with the states described in the picture above. That would allow for a more tactical decision for the Firefly and it's British user, instead of it being the useless heap that it is right now, in my opinion without directly "buffing" it. I also have no doubt that the M10 from the new commander will pretty much replace it in most games. The same function can be applied to more AT guns, like the raketen as well for example, without again directly "buffing" said unit. Cheers and have a nice day. In: COH2 Gameplay
