If IS are cheaper, then their scaling would need nerfed. At Vet 3 with Bren they are very good, Grenadiers couldn't hope to compete with that. Add cover, and things start to get crazy.
vet3 tommies with one bren is fine.
the problem is dual bren aka LMG spam. Wish squad were limited to one lmg.
The arty doc, contrary to what most people believe, is quite good. The trick is to only use the artillery after you get the Platoon Command Post (for second howie gun) and upgrade to Anvil tactics so you get the airburst.
Now you have a spammable (100 muni) arty that ignores FOW. It's not super accurate, but it is very good area denial and the lucky hits smash infantry and weapons teams. Say what you want, but it's an almost mandatory doctrine in 2v2 attrition battles where enemy sets up with ISG spam and hides behind armor.
The Sexton is a little misunderstood. Is it good? No, not really. Is it as terrible as people think? No. If you fire from max range, the shells go everywhere. The key is to move it as close to the bombardment area as possible. Then its accuracy improves significantly.
the 100 mu arty is still pretty weak. the lefh and the ml20's normal barrage are significantly more devastating.
the sexton already have the lowest range (135)of all the doctrinal howitzer. It barely got a better range the the rocket artillery (135 vs 120). just how close do the sexton need to be?
The Jadgtiger/Elefant as a counter to Churchill's is silly when you consider the fact that both those tanks are very, very expensive late game tanks while the Churchill only costs 5 more fuel than a KV1 while being better in every way. By the time a Jadgtiger hits the field you have either already been overwhelmed or are just barely hanging on.
The Churchill just needs a reduction to 1280 health and 300 frontal armor or a huuuge price increase to reflect how durable it is.
The reason the Vickers is weird is because they essentially just copied the MG42's stats.
considering the british's completely lack of artillery piece beside the Sexton, their comets and churchill have the heavy responsibility of leading an assault. The churchill's low top speed make it the perfect prey for the Axis' uber gun.
any heavy nerf to the churchill is just going to make it into another kv-1.
yes, I can tell vicker is based off (not copied) the mg42. Vicker's suppression is just too weak to effectively handle blob and need a buff.
So I dunno why Pz4 cost so much??? IMO 115fuel to bring it in line with other medium tanks.
the t34 have a significantly worst reload than the pziv and a significantly worst scatter.
sherman Ap round have worst AOE than the pziv's normal gun. the sherman is also a bit bigger target. You will be surprised how often people get caught with the wrong shell type.
Cromwell is really the only tank that's under price, but please lower the IS reinforcement cost and firefly cost before even touching the cromwell.
Both pziv also have the advantage of getting the fastest firing gun.
Churchill:I know people want its hp lower and armor raise, but there are a couple of axis weapons with insane penetration.
Against stuff like the pak43, elefant, and the jagdtiger, hp is really the only effective counter. Even the armor on the IS2 and King tiger are not reliable against the ubergun the axis have.
Firefly: lower its cost to 350mp 125 fuel. The firefly have a low ROF to keep it vulnerable to stuff like the stug and pz4. Just lower the price on the firefly and nerf the tulip. It's meant to be a sniper tank, meaning it should be vulnerable if caught out of position.
infantry: lower reinforcement cost to 30mp.
vicker: horrible suppression. the mg42 is still a overall superior mg.
AEC: horrible scaling. Lose to the ostwind and anything bigger. Comparatively the Puma is a excellent tank hunter that scale well into late game.
cromwell: speed is fine, and please don't bring history into this. We want to we can argue about the reliability of the panther vs cromwell all day. Just add a munition cost on warspeed. The ability is a copy of the ost blitz.
Scott?: I think you meant the Sexton?
Universal bren: too fragile. 200 hp with 10/5 armor is not enough. The wasp upgrade cost need a decrease. The 251 half upgrade get two flamethrower that deal more damage individually.
Ugh, yes the LMG1919 has .3 less DPS at max range. But functionally they are exactly the same same. Vickers K, LMG42 and 1919 are all the "standard" LMG's with Brens, MG34 and DP-28 being the outliers.
I'm convince the dps formula is wrong in this case. despite their near identical dps the lmg42 just feel more powerful.
Even if the m1919a6 is as strong as the lmg42, the m1919a6 still cost more.
