Thread: Winter balance (1/2020) feedback - UKF11 Feb 2020, 15:21 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Feb 2020, 08:44 AMSander93 If anything that'd probably make Vanguard even stronger. Commandos are expensive at an inconvenient timing and have a pretty hefty micro tax to use. They'll hardly be the primary reason to pick the doctrine. 0CP Assault Sections would most definitely make it the go-to commander on all close range orientated maps and outshine Lend Lease more than the new glider would Commando Regiment. The popularity of Mechanized Assault and Strategic Reserves show how valuable early game assault infantry pressure into a heavy tank is. That's a fair assessment. Then perhaps just the other half? Give the combined HQ/Commando glider to Commando, and put something underused but not that powerful in Vanguard? In: Lobby
Thread: Ostheer Tech Restructure10 Feb 2020, 22:47 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Feb 2020, 22:30 PMUnit G17 Building upon the B proposal, what if the Stug E becomes a non doctrinal, standard ostheer unit that comes in the new T3? (while it gets replaced by command P4 in the defensive and mechanized doctrines... definitely fits the former, but Tiger + CP4 combo for the latter may be a bit op) I feel like a Stug G might be a little too strong for the new T3, but a Stug E, with slightly improved AT stats (or ability to switch ammo) would help to fill the ostheer light vehicle gap. I saw the proposal of adding short barrel P4 with reduced health for this role, but visually it would be a bit weird imo, if the same P4 model has less health than regular P4. The tech gap is tunable. Just move fuel between the new BP2 and the new BP3. You can define exactly how much earlier the StuG-G can be deployed. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Ostheer Tech Restructure10 Feb 2020, 22:05 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Feb 2020, 22:03 PMHannibal I assumed that you had a typo in proposal B: T3 is currently written that it only costs 140 MP, although the total tech cost to T3 also says it would cost 55 FU, which would also go along with keeping T3 timing. This proposal would revert the intended change from end 2018 to allow for easier back teching into T3. I'm not saying that this is good or bad, just wanted to point it out. I bundled Battle Phase 3 and T4 together. In proposal B, Battle Phase 3 is a requirement for medium armour. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Ostheer Tech Restructure10 Feb 2020, 21:46 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Feb 2020, 21:24 PMHannibal Your proposals would basically revert the previous and currently intended change for OSTs tech structure. Option A is functionally identical to the tech structure in the new patch. I matched all the costs on all the teching paths. All the costs match. The current Ostheer tech design currently has a redundant Battle Phase in it. I just reshuffled it to be between T2 and T3 instead of T3 and T4. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Elite Panzerschreck10 Feb 2020, 19:03 PM Elite Bazookas are Bazookas buffed up to Panzerschreck level. An Elite Panzershreck would be an Elite Elite Bazooka. All the Sturmpioneer shreck really needs is to not lock out the minesweeper. That's the real problem with it. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Additional 10% armor bonus for panther at vet310 Feb 2020, 18:40 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Feb 2020, 17:46 PMblvckdream No, because the JT should not get penetrated by super mobile 145 fuel non-doctrinal TDs that have almost the same range. Right now two Jacksons can casually drive up to a JT and kill it from the front without breaking a sweat. JT is meant to hard counter allied 60 range TDs and only die from getting flanked or stunned and bombed with an off-map. Jackson Vet 3 with HVAP has 390 penetration from range 0-30 so when he said roughly 400 penetration it wasn't really wrong. I didn't say it should have it. I said that's what it's for. I personally think the Jackson and SU-85 should have the penetration of the Firefly. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Winter balance (1/2020) feedback - UKF10 Feb 2020, 17:38 PM As funny as the new UKF medic blob is, might it not be more user friendly to have them as base automatrons? They can keep the high cost to keep them inefficient, but the medic squad is just busywork. In: Lobby
Thread: Winter balance (1/2020) feedback - UKF10 Feb 2020, 17:12 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Feb 2020, 17:06 PMSander93 I had a look at this before but I didn't find any space in any other commander without straight up having to delete something. What about Vanguard, replacing the gutted HQ glider? They're a downgrade from Commandos, fairly munitions dependent (balancing them against the muitions-heavy Vanguard Regiment) and they fit the theme. The merged Commando Drop/HQ glider would then be Commando Regiment exclusive and improve that commander's viability in team games. In: Lobby
Thread: Additional 10% armor bonus for panther at vet310 Feb 2020, 16:48 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Feb 2020, 15:12 PMZeroZeroNi Dude It's never gonna bounce Jacksons. Hell vet ap Jacksons have a pen like ~400 enough to even pierce a ele. But SU85's have a pen of 286 equal to panthers vet3 armor. Atleast bouncing su85's would be nice. A Vet 3 Jackson has a far penetration of 286. The Jackson's AP rounds ability is specifically for penetrating the armour of ultraheavy vehicles. It was designed to go up against the 525 armour Jagdtiger. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Winter balance (1/2020) feedback - UKF10 Feb 2020, 15:06 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Feb 2020, 14:44 PMSander93 I'm not too worried. Some UKF commanders aren't used much anyway and the good ones (Royal Arty, Royal Engineers, Lend Lease and Mobile Assault) each have unique enough advantages. And the Crocodile will probably move to 10-11CP. Commando will be killed stone dead if you give its glider to Vanguard. In: Lobby
