PSA: The intention of this thread was to show how skilful USF players are so please all admire their sheer brilliance instead of discussing ranks of 1v1 players.

Thank you.

Wouldn't be a .org thread if it didn't instantly get off topic.

That is simply incorrect PF do not have 90% DPS when moving. They have (0/10/20/35):
0.77/0.78/0.75/0.74

Play the game. They lose next to no DPS on the move. Seems that DPS calculations are oftentimes wonky too, but I don't really understand them to be fair. In any event, they're far better on the move than almost any other unit.

And my point is there is some degree of realism as you don’t see crazy shit like Cons wielding STGs or T34s wrecking hordes of Tigers. There’s degrees of realism and the game is loyal to it up to some degree.

And mine was that soldiers (especially soldiers that in theory would be operating behind enemy lines and keeping a low profile, something that pathfinders in coh at best very very marginally model) having mines is probably one of the least unrealistic things in coh. There's degrees of adherence to reality, and pathfinder mines and STG cons do not fit into the same degree.

It's not very likely that soviet conscripts actually ran around spamming molotovs and some weird lethal tripwire flare everywhere, but here we are.

Sidenote: for some reason in Ardennes Assault, cav rifles can have IR STGs lul.

Wtf am I reading?

Against infantry? It's nothing special. Its AT performance and durability are good though. Should have specified more.

Hoo boy this is gonna be a fun thread.

Here's the reasons why the title statement is true:

Brits still have no indirect and therefore no counter to indirect despite having nothing but LMG troops and MGs. Section smoke is a great buff, but it won't counter MG spam and it won't counter indirect spam.

The vickers is still trash at actually suppressing things, but its vet1 garrison range bonus is frustrating BS. Its vet1 should be removed and replaced and veterancy at some point should give it better suppression. A a straight group suppression buff wouldn't hurt either to make it actually counter blobs instead of the other way around.

Brits still have no counter to falls, since vickers is not good at its job, brits have no anti infantry light vehicle, and their one rocket artillery piece (that they need a doctrine for) sucks for many many reasons.

The land mattress is not great. Sure, it's the cheapest, but it takes about 4 hours to actually start firing since it has an abysmal setup and teardown time and it always auto sets up on the first unit it sees. It's minimum range is also ridiculously long, its payload comes very slow (which is fine IMO) and has like 0 pen for some reason, and its obviously the slowest since its man-portable. It's also over 50mp per model to reinforce for some reason, and doubles the reinforce cost of models recrewing it. Given that it's so much cheaper than other rocket arties, most of that is fine, but it should at least be responsive when it's in position already. Remove the setup and teardown time, and/or remove the auto setup when it sees an enemy.

Limiting ALO to one doesn't make a lot of sense, and still keeps having commandos to be competitive without cheesing basically mandatory. There shouldn't be a lot of situations where you're building more than like 2, but having the flexibility in a faction with very inflexible mainline infantry would be useful.

Cromwell is still easily the worst medium.

Comet is still meh.

Churchill is a stupid unit. Should lose some armor and get a received damage buff like the KV-1 to make it actually counterable in smaller gamemodes seeing as axis don't have an abundance of high pen 60 range TDs like allies.
