Thread: USF Versus Garrisons Early Game16 Apr 2018, 21:21 PM Anyone got any good advice for countering garrisons as USF without doctrinal flamers? The mortar seems to be the obvious solution but it doesn't seem that effective at damaging garrisoned squads. Both OKW and Ostheer have non-doctrinal flame weapons so if they want a house it's not too hard for them to get into it. And once they're in it's a pain to get them back out. In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: WC51 & Mechanized assault15 Apr 2018, 11:52 AM A new development on this front: Mechanized was used by ClassyDavid himself in the Seasonal Map Cup against oziligath's Ostheer. https://www.coh2.org/replay/69079/smc-round-1-game-2-dave-v-oziligath Mechanized is locked in almost immediately. The WC51 is called in at 60 munitions and immediately upgraded. It works with Rifle squads as fire support. Dave then techs Captain instead of the ubiquitous Lieutenant and rolls out a Stuart. The Stuart fights together with the WC51. Dave used the more common Recon Support /w Lieutenant build in his match against Talisman's OKW. Nevertheless I'd love to hear more about this Mechanized strategy. Hopefully he sees this thread and is happy to share more about it. In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: panther should be slower (and re-evaluating medium speed)12 Apr 2018, 23:34 PM If the enemy is spending their fuel on tank destroyers to fight your Panther then they're not spending that fuel on medium tanks. Medium tanks inflict manpower bleed. Tank destroyers don't. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Requirement for specialized call-in vehicles.11 Apr 2018, 17:06 PM Aimed Shot was tweaked to be more consistent. The Raketenwerfer received suppression immunity and its projectiles no longer collide with terrain. Given Ostwind spam existed it evidently could deal with Centaurs. In: Lobby
Thread: Requirement for specialized call-in vehicles.11 Apr 2018, 12:06 PM The Ostwind received a buff in DBP. An Ostwind build that skips the Schwerer Panzer Headquarters is going to need AT support. OKW's options there are the Puma, the Panzerschreck Sturmpioneer and the Raketenwerfer. All received minor buffs. In: Lobby
Thread: Cannot beat a classic11 Apr 2018, 10:58 AM That looks like every possible 3v3 combination to me. In: Strategy Desk
Thread: Requirement for specialized call-in vehicles.11 Apr 2018, 10:57 AM Or why you think that Ostwind alone will be a problem and not KV-8 and hezter. He said OKW Ostwind spam was a problem. There's a big difference between speculation and precedent. In: Lobby
Thread: Requirement for specialized call-in vehicles.10 Apr 2018, 18:55 PM I could see this working nicely for the two OKW units but I'd hesitate to do it for the M10. Armor Company's entire strategy was teching both Lieutenant and Captain so you had all the tools and then using M10s and the Bulldozer to replace Major. All you'd achieve would be restoring Armor to its former power level. In: Lobby
Thread: Panther10 Apr 2018, 15:17 PM It should be given it costs about 125 more fuel. In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: Balance 2018 2vs210 Apr 2018, 13:42 PM It does when that can of worms is already open. We've got people arguing a 6v5 infantry fight is a 5v5 because one of the squads is "free." In: COH2 Balance
