I actually noticed during a blizzard that my cons were just walking around with periodic "+50XP" signs popping up. I thought it was just a display bug. |
I agree the Ostwind really shouldn't penetrate T34 armor. That's ridiculous. |
Americans wouldn't be dealing with tanks. The US Military is still an extremely conservative organization. They would side with people, not gov. If they ever got involved.
The people that everybody would have to worry about is the Department of Homeland Security, i.e. ATF, NSA, FBI, local enforcement. While they do have tanks and drones of their own, they're not military grade.
The point I was making about Afghanistan is that people are armed. If they weren't armed they'd have gotten shit on by the Soviets decades ago, would probably have been shit on by the British decades before that, and would've been shit on by the Americans today.
An armed populace is one you should always be afraid of. Which is good. Fear keeps government in check. |
Yup, it makes things way harder. But also more challenging. As much as a I shit on PzGrens /w Schreks, they're actually the perfect units to have against it, seeing as using a T34 requires me to be pretty aggressive.
On the plus side, if things are going well for me I can save up for T34/85. |
If you wanted to add directional damage to infantry, it would be a considerable frame rate hit with the extra CPU calculations. |
The Satchel Charge isn't a guaranteed kill on those two emplacements. They need to be damage already. |
Ostruppen were non-German soldiers on the Eastern Front fighting in the German army. Finns were some of the best troops in the entire war, yet they were Ostruppen.
Point being, I don't think we should make them a piece of shit just because they're titled "Relief Infantry". Look at Conscripts, after all.
Let them upgrade with an MG42 or some kind of weapon. They'd be fine after that. |
I have 3x Con ---> 1x Penal 1x M3 ---> T3, T34 + Guards Rifle Spam
I refuse to inflict that dull and boring ass SU-85 spam on people(And myself). My way doesn't work as well, but it works enough for me to maintain a high positive win rate. |
Thinking that possessing guns will 'keep the government in check' is almost laughable to be honest.
Tell that to Afghanistan. |
No way in hell would I ever build more than 1 Penal. Building a unit doesn't mean you have to spam it. |
