then lets not play this game at all, because in reality allies won the war and thus they should always win in the game also.

Reality "arguments", have very little place in game forum, immersion is great if it can achieved but not on expense of balance.

Pls try to avoid them.

==================
There is no point making infantry because MG
There is no point making MG because Mortars
There is no point making tanks because AT and Mines

There is no point making paper because scissors
There is no point making Scissors because things that throw rocks
There is no point making Rock because Paper.

There is no point making Panthers because Jackson.
(I am surprised that Jackson only now became an issue.
It used to be 125 fuel and higher ROF AND do more dmg.
If anything it's weaker now than previously.
=========================
Damage was 200 and went down to 160 for normal shots and from 240 to 200 to HVAP.
- That I knew.

That has limited impact since a medium tank will still die to 4 shot and for Panther one will still have to use HVAP that still do 200 and kill the Panther in 4 shots.
- Didn't count that. You're still assuming perfect pens, which rarely happens.

The claim about ROF is actually false, ROF was increased since reload was decreased by almost 1 second.
- THAT I didn't know about. I'd heard the overall DPS had decreased (Less dmg AND less ROF, but higher
pen).

Penetration was also increased and HP.
- That I knew. Like SU85 (the PEN)(SU85 lost ROF but gained PEN)
- HP went from 480 to 600.
- SU76 and StuIIIG health also went up a few patches back. Both also TDs

Now i know you will say i got RES Tank Traps for cover but a little riflemen utility wont hurt i mean grens IS volks cons got a tupe of defense for your riflemen you need commadner i think riflemen should get non commander sandbags when RES are not around

- Soviets think T34-85 should be a core unit not needing a commander.
- USF thinks Sherman E8 should be a core unit not needing a commander.
- SOV thinks Conscripts should have 6x PPSH not needing a commander.
- SOV thinks they should have heal-in-the-field not needing a commander.
- USF thinks they should have Katyusha/Callioppe as core unit not needing a commander.
- Wehr and OKW want tanks that can de-crew and go up to 350 pop and cap flags and repair
themselves and each other. And have good aim-on-the-move and have offensive smoke mortars
(and Scopes) without needing a commander. And Hull down without needing a commander.
And ...

It doesn't stop.

OKW wants early MG.
USF wants early MG.
Brits want Assault Auto Weapons and free 5 man squads and early AT in main infantry.
Wehr thinks Grenadiers should have 5x models not needing a commander.
OKW wants MG bunkers without needing a commander for it.
OKW wants a decent mortar without needing a commander AND FUEL for it (Mortar HT).
"I want everything I ever do to be "RockPaperScissors" and to win in every situation".

Usually I say this to Axis players, but... L2P

- Grens no sandbags. Pio makes sandbags.
- Rifles no sandbags. RE makes Tank trap.
Even I don't see a problem here.
Esp since USF has fighting positions. And Smoke.

Wow this debate certainly deteriorated into the gutter faster than I anticipated

Anyways I so not recall the pre-patch 222 which apparantly was too strong against snipers, but from my personal experience I would argue that it seems to be a bit on the weak side at the moment. I appears to me that the scout car was basically intended as a sniper hunter considering it's long detection range and frankly being pretty average at everything else and having quite a slim window as the apex predator. So in this regard I think it could possibly be a tad bit stronger at chasing retreating squads, as it is still a risky endeavour.

Just my two cents on the matter, but I don't think they are broken by any means and overall I'm really enjoying the current balance

On the saltiness of replies : Lol, this is COH2 we are talking about. Most games have 1500 to
5000 threads. COH2 is what? 450,000 threads? (50,000? 500,000?) most about I love scissors,
please ban rock or some similar thing.

Try playing soviet yourself. Soviet Sniper is very squishy.
It doesn't have explosive bullet, and it has bolt rifle sniper vs Semi Auto Rifle Sniper of Wehr
sniper. Wehr sniper cannot be wiped by a mortar (82 life vs 80 dmg) or grenade.

Single Mortar round or Rifle Grenade is insta wipe for Soviet Sniper.

It's a lot harder to vet the soviet sniper team.
It's stealth is a lot harder to manage.
It aims and reloads a lot slower.

Soviets don't have heal-in-the-field.
So Wehr sniper can stay on the field longer.
Wehr sniper using explosive bullet can dual shot wipe the entire soviet SOV team.
It takes micro, but is doable. Katitof explained how.

Wehr mortar is one of best ROF and accuracy in game.
If it hits, the chances of a wipe are really strong, since the SOV models are the LOWEST
HEALTH IN THE ENTIRE GAME!

I still see Panthers getting used, often times very effectively, in team games (2v2 and above) all the time. In fact, if the game ever gets to that stage, it's basically a guarantee that axis players will use panthers.

I really want to spectate the games of people who make some ridiculous claims like "X unit is absolutely useless".

I imagine I'll see a lot of attack-move followed by looking away.

Wittmann became a cult figure after the war thanks to his accomplishments as a "panzer ace" (a highly decorated tank commander) in the portrayal of the Waffen-SS in popular culture. The historian Stephen Hart comments "the Wittmann legend [has] become well-established" and "continues to stimulate huge public interest".[49] Military historian Steven Zaloga refers to Wittmann as "the hero of all Nazi fanboys" and discusses the popular perception of a tank versus tank engagement as an "armoured joust"—two opponents facing each other—with the "more valiant or better-armed [one] the eventual victor". He contends that perception is nothing but "romantic nonsense". Most of the successful tank commanders were indeed "bushwackers", according to Zaloga, having a battlefield advantage rather than a technical one: a tank crew that could engage its opponent before the latter spotted it often came out on top.[48]

Notice this part :
He contends that perception is nothing but "romantic nonsense"

Wittmann's fate reflected that new reality: after transfer to France, his crew only
lasted two months, and was destroyed by a British medium tank, the up-gunned Sherman Firefly.[59]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Wittmann
He gained recognition for his action as a tank gunner in France in which he destroyed four tanks
in a day, including three Tigers (Tiger tanks numbers 312, 009 & 314).[6] One of his opponents
on that day, 8 August 1944 near St. Aignan de Cramesnil, France may have been the German tank
commander Michael Wittmann.[1][3][4][5]

Pls try to read and understand before responding.

I wrote the efficiency of allied TDs not tanks.

1 Firefly rapes 3 tigers and another tank in a single day (incl. Wittman most likely)

MG42 rapes infantry blobs.
PAK40 rapes Shermans/T34s.
Firefly rapes Panther, Tiger.

How dare allied counters cost less than expensive German units?!?
Bonus: Allied infantry costs more than Axis infantry most of the time.

Yes. StuIIIG is more efficient vs Allied Armor. It's a tank destroyer.
Yes. Allied TDs rape Heavy German Armor. It's a tank destroyer.

StuIIIG rape IS-2 and Pershing, KV1, KV8 too. You don't see me crying.
