Thread: Jagdpanzer IV Refit17 Oct 2019, 04:25 AM I think this unit should be a little cheaper than it is. It should be reduced to 14 pop (just like the Jackson and Firefly should be) and it's fuel cost should be reduced by 10. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Short barreled p4 for OST?17 Oct 2019, 04:21 AM Jump back to quoted post16 Oct 2019, 21:22 PMT.R. Stormjäger Read a book maybe? Panzer IV F1s were an extreme rarity in 1944. I'm looking at it in terms of utility. The P4J is essentially the samething as the standard vetted P4 that they already get. The short-barreled P4 would make it like an OST Sherman and have it focused on infantry support. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Making the Comet Work-As Is14 Oct 2019, 01:11 AM I've been pretty successful with UKF over the last couple days and I've only gone Hammer tactics. Basically I build 3 - 4 infantry sections and an MG. Then Go AEC with a double PIAT equipped RE sqaud and an AT gun. This is usually enough to hold enemy vehicles at bay while you work toward your first Comet and the build order should allow for two. I find it to be a pretty decent tank. I think maybe they should lower the fuel cost down to 170 and leave it there. It easily outmatches either Panzer IV and can flank very well. In: UKF Strategies
Thread: The thing that Brits really need, but will never get.14 Oct 2019, 01:07 AM Jump back to quoted post23 Aug 2019, 10:02 AMJoshua85 All balance aside, the biggest downside of the UKF in my opnion, is how linear and predictable they are to play with and against. Linear teching aside I think their greatest downfall in this department, is that they have literally no opening game alternative to infantry sections. They are the only faction who does not have neither t0 or instantly buildable doctrinal infantry, nor non-doctrinal infantry alternatives, which means that 2-5 squads of Sections is almost guaranteed every single match. This makes it literally impossible to throw any real curve balls in the opening game other than some flavor from a UC or Vickers. In retrospect, I think the UK could have benefited a lot from an alternative opening infantry unit back when they were being developed. Well hang on a minute, USF has no alternative to Riflemen, that's the faction that's the most predictable. UKF at least has UCs and MGs, actual fighting units. USF only gets Riflemen for actual fighting units when the game starts. In: UKF Strategies
Thread: Brits are actually pretty good...one suggestion though.13 Oct 2019, 07:46 AM Jump back to quoted post13 Oct 2019, 07:03 AMSuperHansFan Historically British paratroopers dropped with Enfield's standard. Silenced sten guns were not the norm at all This could possibly be brits version of obers or pgrens in a overhaul patch. Interesting idea for more infantry diversity considering ALO model is not really used. You could give them unique Enfield profile that fires quicker and although is inferior at long range, is much better short and mid range. Similar to penals or pgren. I don't like the Vickers because it's unhistorical, bren guns were much more common and look more cool. I agree actually the Bren guns look cooler than the Vickers. Not sure why they added the Vickers. I don't know if British Paras used Thompsons but Commandos certainly did. I'm kind of surprised they were given Stens instead. Anyway British Paras with the ALO models would look cool. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Brits are actually pretty good...one suggestion though.13 Oct 2019, 05:52 AM I hope this doesn't inspire any more nerfs but nobody in a position to make those kind of changes cares what I think and that's fine. In any case I was wrong about Brits being nerfed into the ground they are still pretty good especially against OKW but they do struggle against Wehrmacht but that's always been the case. I do also like the Comet, it could maybe stand to be reduced in price to 170 fuel with its current stats. They are pretty limited with infantry with only Infantry Sections, Commandos and possibly Assault Sections if you want to consider that as it's own unit. What they need is a proper airborne unit. Like a 5 or 6 man unit similar to USF Paratroopers that parachute in with Enfields and are upgradable with 4 Thompsons or 2 Vickers MGs. I wonder if they could use the Air Landing Officer as a model template and just use six of those if they can't create new models with Brit airborne helmets. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can You Please Fix Churchill Crocs Rear Armor ?12 Oct 2019, 18:46 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Oct 2019, 18:34 PMDoomlord52 They're also all doc-locked and significantly more expensive units, too; of course they're going to be more powerful. It doesn't excuse the churchill sitting far above the curve. LOL Panthers and King Tigers aren't "doc locked" In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Can You Please Fix Churchill Crocs Rear Armor ?12 Oct 2019, 18:24 PM Jump back to quoted post12 Oct 2019, 18:13 PMDoomlord52 It's normalization, not a nerf random nerf. The June 21st 2016 patch had this specific section: For some reason the Churchill was missed, and still sits at 180 rear armor - significantly higher than any other heavy, both in terms of raw value, and in terms of front:rear armor ratio. Well it doesn't matter if it happens to have the highest rear armor of any other tank that's irrelevant. What does matter is how much more does it have than the next highest tank and what is that?

Thread: Short barreled p4 for OST?12 Oct 2019, 16:19 PM The Ostwind struggles against AECs and even Stuarts so I wouldn't say it automatically trumps all light vehicles. In: COH2 Balance
