Haven't played in a while, so am very rusty, nevertheless was was a fun game with Panzer IV's and Tigers vs T-34's, Guard Rifles and AT guns. |
Thanks for the response guys. |
Does the German faction tend to get verteranct easier and quicker than the Russian faction in general. Like the Russians have larger units that are cheaper to reinforce, they take more loses than the Germans but its balanced out by cost. But since veterancy is obtained at a rate of 75% for doing damage and 25% for taking damage does it tip the balance of vetrancy towards the Germans or is it a case that the Russian only take the same loses as the Germans. Is there any difference in the rate of veterancy gained for each sides?
Also the XP markers that appear above units when they get a kill are they related to veterancy of do they simply go towards commander points? |
Lots of T-34/76 vs Panzer IV action.
My opponent wasn't too happy with my tactics, giving me alot of abuse for it.
Shame because it was a game I was enjoying.
What do you think, cheap or what?
Actually I'm not sure if this is patched or not. I think it is. |
About half way through the single player campaign.
Have to say I think it could of been handled a bit better and with better balance. Its odd that German war crimes are completely omitted. Granted that applys to COH 1 as well but there was such a large emphasis on the brutality of the Soviet side it seems only right to have some balance by showing some of the things the Germans did to the Russian people. Even if it is just following the story of one man, its hard to imagine the protagonist didn't come across German atrocities during the course of the war given how widespread the crimes where. Granted its not all bad, the ordinary Soviet soldiers are portrayed in a good light but not their superiors. There isn't any pro German viewpoint presented either, the Germans are shown in a neutral manner.
So I feel Russians do have a right to complain but from what I've read on other forums the manner in which some of posts take does their arguments no favors what so ever. |
I use it to counter the Russian heavy artillery piece, which Russian players occasional get to counter my Pak-43. So a counter to a counter, but otherwise very little use for it. |
I use it alot. Infact I think its OP. Its extremely difficult for the Russian player to eliminate if the German players defends it well. |
Got sold a dummy at the start when I saw my opponent had 3 MG bulletins, so I assumed maxim spam and thought I'd pull a fast one, I assumed wrong and shenanigans and hijinks abound as I try to fraud my way out of loosing. |

Its the same situation for the German player if he catches a Maxim off guard.
Yes the Maxim has a smaller arc of fire, but it sets up and packs up faster, has more durability, and Grenadier squads lack molotovs or oo-rah. |
