Thread: sexton: Why it suck and how to make it better.30 May 2018, 10:10 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2018, 09:42 AMswordfisch I was mixed with the other commander howitzer ability, counter barrage that also uses the howitzers. So yes I concede that point to you, I made a mistake. Don't sweat it everyone makes mistake. Jump back to quoted post30 May 2018, 09:42 AMswordfisch >50 fuel . It's not just 50 fuel though is it? Do you really want me to add up the entire MP and fuel investment to get to Anvil shellburst? Anvil/hammer imo is worth its cost easily. You unlock a vehicle and get 3 bonus abilities. Jump back to quoted post30 May 2018, 09:42 AMswordfisch Ask yourself this: Is there any offmap in the game that starts off as weak as concentration barage until you dump a load of MP and fuel researching up to Anvil? Imagine if Stuka Dive bomb only dropped a single mortar round until you researched Ostheer Tier 4. Then upon researching for the Stuka divr bomb and Panther you were locked out of the Brumbar/werfer... this is the life of brits There would be outrage yet this commander is left in the dumps Ask yourself is there another off map at CP4? Again you do no need anvil for concentration barrage it add nothing to the ability. Unlocking Tier 1 gives you access to it unlocking tier 2 gives you a second gun. In: COH2 Balance

Think the cone of radar is bigger IRHT 120, Valentine 180. Jump back to quoted post30 May 2018, 08:01 AMCombatWombat Interesting, was the Valentine's search range changed at some point, as I always remember it being shorter than the IRHT? I don't remember valentine's stats being touched after release. (was different call-in prior to release) In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Royal artillery30 May 2018, 08:46 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2018, 07:53 AMCombatWombat ... - The range extension the Sexton gets from the ability is not unlimited and appears to be about 35 more than the vet0 range of LeFH. - Difficult to comment on the scatter at this max range, but the low aoe profile of the sexton make its kinda not treating and it would be difficult to destroy buildings. Seems more of area denial type. .... Sexton supercharged Range should be 35-217,5 (max 400) Scatter Scatter angle 5 Distance offset 0.3 Distance ratio 0.125 Distance max 15.5 In: COH2 Balance

I honestly don't know their ranges. Both valentine and IRHT have a range of 120. ("the grass is always greener on the other side of fence") In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sexton: Why it suck and how to make it better.30 May 2018, 05:38 AM Jump back to quoted post29 May 2018, 23:28 PMLoopDloop *can be used to mildly injure the area around an on map artillery piece and maybe tickle the crew if you get lucky. Also getting anvil locks you out of hammer obviously but otherwise lefh isn’t getting countered with arty. Pls use abilities before posting about them. The barrage comes with air-bust shells, one does need to chose Anvil to have them. Jump back to quoted post30 May 2018, 03:03 AMFiresparks you can't use early warning + nuke on a backline howitzer. Sane people tend to put their howitzer somewhere beside the frontline. You claimed that "The royal artillery doctrine itself doesn't have recon+ off map." I pointed out that is rather inaccurate since it has both recon and an off map. On the claim you make here, it is rather map depended but in many maps it rather easy to capture a sector that borders a sector that artillery is usually placed and then the flares can give you vision on the enemy arty. In the end of the day the commander is not very good for 1vs1 games and teammates can provide recon (USF get stock Reckon planes). The bottom line is the commander is good at countering enemy static artillery pieces. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: sexton: Why it suck and how to make it better.29 May 2018, 22:46 PM Jump back to quoted post29 May 2018, 20:59 PMswordfisch it's not an off map because it has a max range it's also weak as piss unless you blow a load of fuel for Anvil and lock yourself out of hammer, should be able to shell FoW BUT british howitzers in base should be more vulnerable to enemy fire and require a MP cost to repair. (or possibly moving them as an upgrade for the mortar pit) That is actually inaccurate. "Concentration barrage" has no range limit, it will reach the end of the map even in large maps. In addition one does need Anvil for air-bust shells. Finally Anvil/hammer cost only 50 fuel which I wouldn't call a "load of Fuel". In: COH2 Balance
Thread: UKF Designate Command Vehicle Aura29 May 2018, 13:07 PM Jump back to quoted post29 May 2018, 13:04 PMLago Thanks. Assuming it's on an AEC is it generally worth it? Auras are pretty difficult to judge empirically. The aura is very strong. AEC is good candidate. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Royal artillery29 May 2018, 13:02 PM Jump back to quoted post29 May 2018, 12:25 PMKatitof Why? I thought its your passion to pretend different units/weapons are/should be the same and explain that over and over. Once more that is in your brain, you simply though wrong (and that does not actually surprise me). Pls stop posting about what I do or do not do and try to focus on the thread's topic and not me. Jump back to quoted post29 May 2018, 12:25 PMKatitof Both units have 2 modes, scouting and combat. Both units are light tanks. Both do the same thing with 2 different flavors, matching their representative factions. One is worth its cost, one is not. There is not really much more to that. I would suggest starting from checking the stats of the 2 units and then move to the difference between having sight 52.5 and having mini map info for 120 range. If you are unable to comprehend why, a T-70 clone valentine with radar and call-in arty, would be broken, I can not help you. In: COH2 Balance

I am sorry but I simply do not have the time to explain to you the differences between the Valentine and T-70 or between soviet and UKF Faction. In: COH2 Balance
