I just beat Mr Cancer himself in a random 2's game.
ahhhh its a pleasure to see Mr. Cancer himself got rekt. Every god damn game, he's using only the cancer commander
During the beta, the bofors could get abandoned. Maybe they should bring it back |
penals + guards or penals + AT partysans new meta incoming
They are much stronger now. Most of the time I underestimate them, but they seems fine to me. I need to play some more games |

@ZombieFrancis & @sinthe
The Bofors is T2 and requires 60 fuel in total to build (taking into account the platoon command post). Ostheers get mortars extremely quickly, with their first T1 structure built straight off the bat.
What are you doing for the time it takes for the British player to get 50 fuel? The problem here is that you guys are having trouble breaking a Bofors that are built near strategic points such a VP or Fuel points. You have access to two things that practically dominate the early game against the British : MGs and Mortars. The British will have a Vickers up ASAP, but you will have a mortar to bombard it. Their infantry sections can't do anything if you suppress them with your MG.
So how in the world, does the British player one up an Ostheer player in the early game, somehow manage to capture a strategic point, then build a Bofors without any interference at all? On top of this, you're saying a Bofors + Mortar emplacement is hard to deal with? You realize Bofors + Mortar emplacement costs 680MP in total right?
How to deal with British Bofors? Get a single mortar ASAP, keep pushing out the British in the early game when you are strong, because the British, without their Bofors, are extremely weak in the early game, and since you cannot move an emplacement, the British player will either opt to migrate to a different area of the map, or build at a disadvantageous position.
Dealing with 3 mortars (which costs less than a Bofors + mortar emplacement if you take into account fuel), is harder to deal with for the British player. The mortar emplacement is extremely inaccurate, while 3 mortars bombarding an emplacement will hit every single time (due to an emplacement's large hitbox), on top of being able to recrew.
which game mode? |
just decrease the veterancy requirements. How much CP do you need to call-in? |
overall good changes.
Schrecks to Sturmpios, give them a try. This is a balance mod and more changes are coming anyway.
Sturmpios are not spammable like volks and you need Sturmpios to repair/lay down mines/sweep mines, ergo they wont be on the front all the time, like volks do. The only think that should change, is how much vet do sturmpios gain with that schreck upgrade.
edit:
instead of increasing the arc from the raketen, they should take a look into somewhere else. Because very often, the raketen projectile hits the ground. Very frustrating when you prepare an ambush and both raketen hits everything else, but not the vehicle. |
I hate this emplacement, because when I build one, it gets instand decrewed and ends, that I have to fight against my own emplacement.
Simply add that they cant be decrewed anymore |
maxim spam is still viable [joking aside]
Its still a good MG it takes time to adapted the new set up time.
And to all people who have problems against obers with maxims, you simply need more maxims. For every Obersquad you need at least 2 maxims |
wow I guess the Luftwaffe Ground Forces Doctrine from OKW is now much better with sprinting volks/Stgs, if you activate valiant assault |
I believe in miracle again... Relic finally deals with the shreck spam noob tactic... Allies could not do a move with any vehicles cause shrecks kill them in a second... Even IS-2...
Think of that every Volk squad had 2 shrecks and I often saw 5 squads blobing that are 10 shrecks and if there are 4 OKW Players there are up to 40 Shrecks on the field... try to make a move with a tank then...
Every Volk got "only" a single schreck
And if you see they are blobbing, soviets got some nice tools to deal with that.
