Thread: NKVD Disruption Tactics18 Sep 2013, 02:07 AM Jump back to quoted post17 Sep 2013, 23:22 PMundostrescuatro i was talking about the armoured assault one. an nkvd officer would be nice. though programming a new unit takes more effort than changing for an already existing one. True, although the NKVD officer model is already in the campaign and I don't think it would be any harder to balance than adding a different unit to the tree. The biggest challenge would be the UI for the abilities but even then you could just recycle existing icons as all three suggested abilities already exist. I would just love to see more officers in game. In: Lobby
Thread: NKVD Disruption Tactics17 Sep 2013, 22:45 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Sep 2013, 22:14 PMundostrescuatro in this i disagree. and i do consider him very useful for the skills he had and the combination of them. I agree that the doctrine is both underwhelming and too munitions heavy right now. I would like to see the fear propaganda ability removed and a 2cp ability added in the form of an NKVD officer. Seems natural that the NKVD tree would have an NKVD officer. NKVD officer: 2 CPs 240MP Limit 1 squad 6 man squad, 5 with Mosin Nagants, 1 officer with a revolver Conscript armor (1) Abilities include: -Propaganda drop (50 munis) -- Same as current propaganda arty but only fires one burst onto target -"No Surrender!" -- Same as German officer's inspire ability -Interrogation -- Same as German interrogation ability This would give the doctrine a quantity limited call in adding to the flexibility and character of the tree.

Thread: Siezing an enemy weapon as Axis is too hard17 Sep 2013, 17:55 PM I think the best solution is to just add Ostruppen to T1. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Suggestion: Bring back Volksgrenadiers!15 Sep 2013, 14:34 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Sep 2013, 09:40 AMBartonPL jeez man... I'm just saying, volks/ost in T1 is totally bullshiet idea because GRENADIERS WERE MAIN INFANTRY FORCE ON EASTERN FRONT Sorry, I wasn't trying to be rude. I think that grens still would be the main army, even if ost/volks were also available in t1. It would be like pios. Pioneer detachments didn't form the entire fighting force on the east front and yet we occasionally see pio spam into t2 without a single grenadier being built. It doesn't mean we should take pios out of the game, it just means it's up to the player to choose what kind of fighting force he wants as this game is only inspired by history and not 100% historically accurate. I still think the majority of the time, you would still see mostly grens being built with only perhaps a volks here or there to recrew a gun or soak sniper fire or if they're going for a build in which they want to save munitions to spam arty or... Who knows what crazy reason why! The point is, they would be there as an option. Also, how can our half-tracks smell like volksgrenadiers if we don't have volksgrenadiers?! It's a shame.

Tbh, I've seen this suggested before and it's not a terrible idea, but as the Germans, would you really want to spend your munis on a volks squad? When I play Ost, I always feel like it's munis or fuels I'm missing. I agree that it's silly In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Suggestion: Bring back Volksgrenadiers!15 Sep 2013, 01:59 AM Jump back to quoted post15 Sep 2013, 01:35 AM=][=mmortal I cant see myself spending 240 on inferior troops when I can spend the same mp cost/upkeep on my normal grens...which might I add, are vulnerable enough to soviet units without making an army of gimpy throwaway units to recrew the new over-nerfed mg42s Sure, I can see this too but the nice thing would that they would be optional. However, if you wanted a support infantry unit for support weapon heavy builds or a unit to soak sniper fire, you would have the option. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Suggestion: Bring back Volksgrenadiers!15 Sep 2013, 01:26 AM Jump back to quoted post15 Sep 2013, 00:32 AMUGBEAR NO, the Grenadier is far superior Right, I think the gren would still be the superior combat choice but it would be nice to have a 5 man squad to support support weapons.

Thread: Suggestion: Bring back Volksgrenadiers!14 Sep 2013, 23:46 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Sep 2013, 23:32 PMBartonPL I agree that Relief infantry should call ostrups, not that you must lose squads for that.... Even according to CoH1, why volks were main forces? Look at history, Wehrmacht in France was nothing more than just not very experienced soldiers, fresh recruits or some very wounded veterans from eastern front. They never needed to occupy France with soldiers that are useful on eastern front till 1944. Perhaps I don't understand your point Barton. Are you suggesting that if Osttruppen/volks were availible from the T1 building no one would build grens? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Suggestion: Bring back Volksgrenadiers!14 Sep 2013, 23:27 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Sep 2013, 22:54 PMc r u C e Adding a new infantry unit would f**k up all the early game balance that was meant between Conscripts and Grenadiers... That is certainly possible but considering it would be much like a conscript with 5 men, no Molotov, no oorah, no lmg and no rifle nade, do you see it messing things up that much? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Suggestion: Bring back Volksgrenadiers!14 Sep 2013, 22:28 PM Jump back to quoted post14 Sep 2013, 21:17 PMBartonPL no, reason? Volks weren't main Ostheer infantry forces (maybe only in 1945) They wouldn't likely be the main infantry in this scenario either. Think of it from a gameplay stand point, wouldn't it be nice to call in Osttruppen/volks to support or recrew a weapon team? From a so soviet perspective, they would be less hardy infantry. Seems like both sides would want this. In: COH2 Gameplay
