Thread: Why does the M20 mine need to one shot the Puma?4 Nov 2014, 15:52 PM Jump back to quoted post3 Nov 2014, 12:47 PMHitman5 Buffed zook + m20 mine nerf is a fair trade. zooks do suck anyway. Though not buffed to the point where there are OP zook blobs, since they would be too spammable. Sorry, I got here late, but it is impossible to not read this as: "Buff the zook enough that it would justify nerfing the m20 mine without buffing it enough to actually be useful." In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Flame-Resistant Suits for OKW units31 Oct 2014, 17:28 PM Jump back to quoted post31 Oct 2014, 16:28 PMHardworkingBulldozer Thanks at least someone agreed. seriously though my point is SPs have no chance when there are so manny flamguys around. If flame-suits are unrealistic and historically inaccurate and "OP" as well, A solution or tip, aside from L2P (I am learning and improving at playing this game already) , would be nice. If only OKW had other units they could use. Perhaps infantry that had a better range, or a vehicle of some sort since they are much more resistant to flames... Maybe mount a powerful machine gun on the top of it? What am I talking about?!? That would just be silly. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Flame-Resistant Suits for OKW units31 Oct 2014, 16:07 PM Jump back to quoted post31 Oct 2014, 14:47 PMHardworkingBulldozer Is it a good idea if OKW could be able to purchase Flame suits? It would be really helpful when playing against SU. At least sturmpios should have this option IMO. Meh... Let them do it... Of course those asbestos suits are pretty shiny and hard to move in, so I don't think you will want to do it after they nerf their speed and reload times and give them a huge positive received accuracy modifier.

That is how you know she is not on duty. But off duty they are required to wear their uniforms. Israeli soldiers have a fair amount of leeway when off duty. It is a "citizens" army where almost all the officers are required to have been enlisted soldiers first, they often know many of their compatriots and officers personally (it is a small country) and there is little formality. (This really shows in the showy stuff. They don't salute well since they don't generally salute, they don't march well, etc.) Jump back to quoted post30 Oct 2014, 22:31 PMschnuersi I am also curious how she will hump 40-50 kg 155 mm shells. Judging from the picture she is only slightly heavier. I had a partner when I worked on a volunteer ambulance corp who was under 160 cm and 45 kilos. She was able to handle her half of the stretcher without a problem. That is more than picking up 1/2 of a 155mm shell (the US m107 projectile is 43 kg) and it is done by three men, 2 to hold the projectile on a cradle and the third rams it in. That is less than my partner did with stretchers. Besides, there are a lot more roles in an artillery unit than loading. In: The Library
Thread: Post WW2 and Modern Warfare Pics31 Oct 2014, 14:11 PM Jump back to quoted post31 Oct 2014, 01:44 AMafrrs are these female units deployed in any theater of war right now ? In a way... yes. It is called Israel. That picture is from a news article about the paramedics in the latest conflict with Gaza, so yes, they are in a theater of war when the picture is taken. Israel is organized around 4 fronts, Southern (Egyptian border, Gaza), Northern (Lebanon and Syria), Central (Jordan and the West Bank), and Home (that one is new to me and I don't know much about it, or if it includes the West Bank or not). Women (and men) can be stationed on what are known as "open" or "closed" bases. "Closed" bases are the homes of combat troops and are situated near the borders. "Open" are usually farther from the front and are for supply, training, etc. (Front is really a nuanced term here. Nothing in Israel is very far from anything else. You can drive Israels width in an hour or two, and the length of it in 5, depending on traffic. It is about the size of New Jersey, one of the smaller states in the US.) As to the 30% women #, for conscripts it is likely closer to 40%. Men are more likely to stay past conscription, particularly in the Air Force and Navy. In: The Library
