+1 to Theodosis. Doesn't help that half the freakin' map pool is so camp-heavy either due to chokepointy goodness or because they're narrow narrow as hell with a crapton of buildings.
So I guess the question is, what are some maps to fill the new pool? |
Then they would do more wipes generally surely?
Depends on how they're handled. If you buffed the size of the mid AoE, you'd have an instant-kill radius that's in-line with other grenades while the rest of the AoE could be comparable to now (so still higher than the pineapple or guard's 'nade, which makes sense given the higher price of the bundle). |
Pumas definitely get HEAT shells, I've used Mechanized Packs with HEAT Pumas before to knife through Sherman and T34/76 spam, though I've never tried it against the Allied advanced mediums. |
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of Gammons or Bundle 'nades. 120 damage is just way too much when wooden garrisons get involved. IMO, they should have the normal 80 damage with a stronger AoE profile than other grenades instead. |
The low accuracy is an artifact from a while ago when HEAT shells had artillery traits for some reason. AFAIK, they should be just as accurate as the main gun now. As to combat blitz, I assume they get the same accuracy increase, but I'm not entirely sure on that. |
Why the hell combat blitz icrease tank acuraccy. Like IF it wasnt strong enaugh even without that :/
Because Relic never friggin' learns. |
Feel free to recommend a fuel price for Howies/Pak43. Would 50-ish fuel be OK, or too low?
Yeah, that's about where I'd peg it, especially with SDB nerfs and some of the other changes you've speculated on throughout the thread, it'd be a solid change. |
A hell of a lot of good stuff in here. Only things I'm concerned about:
-As others have said, nerfing the Calliope to Priest levels is a bit much. I think 60 armor + 480 HP would be a bit more reasonable.
-The theoretical fuel prices for Howies and Pak43s seem really high. I could understand if they had brace-esque protection from one-shots, but I think its a bit much in its current theoretical state.
Other than that, this all looks absolutely amazing for the game. Just killing Calliopes, SDB and CAS loiter alone would make 2v2s a hell of a lot healthier, I'm excited to see what it'll look like when its done, Scope (TM) permitting.

Nothing fancy, just a demonstration of how to do the Rostov theater of war for someone on the official forums. Plz no judge, I'm tired and have no sound so my micro is like, nonexistent. |
My point is there's a reason other AI units like the StuG E show up later or have shitty armor. |
