I would consider it a waste of time. They barely even look at any of the forums, and I don't blame them necessarily.

Oh. In that case, don't waste your time trying to convince Relic to add these big abilities into the game. They already have enough trouble implementing little patches.

I don't know exactly how target tables work, but if I understand them correctly, you could make it so that it leaves all emplacements with ~10-20% health, so that way it won't 1-shot mortar emplacements but it'll still be effective vs 17 pounders, still requiring a follow-up to kill but dealing enough damage to make it easy to finish off an unsupported emplacement.

It's pretty cool, I would like to see something similar to this. KCH and Railway artillery are poorly designed though imo. Using super late arrival to balance an offmap artillery ability is lazy. Keep the large blast radius, reduce damage in the direct hit zone so it doesn't one hit braced emplacements (1 click oneshot abilities are bad design). Heavily reduce damage with more distance from impact zone. Then heavily reduce price and CP requirement. In that way it will be an alot less deadly mini nuke while retaining it's uniqueness with a insanely large blast radius, and might actually be used. An ability where a player invests too much of his/her resources will be a bitch to balance - for the price people will expect it to pretty much be as effective as the old UKF air superiority. If it isn't, it won't be used at all. If it is, it's probably going to be OP.

KCH - same issue imo, too much punch and price in one unit. Not too sure about the dps without playing with them, but you could easily remove some of the utility to lower the price. Fausts are covered by grens, they can be removed. Sprint and medkits as well. Keep the assault ability, it's too cool to be removed. Lower price and CP.

And imo, no infantry entity (yes, including snipers) should have more than 80 hp. It looks ridiculous with direct hits from explosive weapons.

Hope you like the feedback .
