first of all, the AOE difference is not a minor detail if you understood what milka was getting at. second, the pack howitzer has 160 range when barraging, which makes it untouchable by all other early game indirect fire. its not significantly worse, or even worse at all in my opinion |
Turboblitz rocket engines(again and for both axis armies) anyone?
60 range, 240 damage turreted TD with the speed of a panther, but cheaper than a jagdpanzer anyone? |

you do realize there is fuel on the top of the map too right? |
I love how you quote the whole list. Do you even know which one of those are really relevant for accuracy? 
Besides that your damage assessment is lacking.
Both have a ~1.5 radius with >80 dmg. That's important, as that's the instakill radius. It doesn't matter against infantry if you have 80 or a million damage. Anything with >= 80 damage instakills infantry entities. From then on the Pack Howitzer has more damage than the leIG at every single range the game uses. Every single range. Besides that it also has a bigger AoE.
leIG ends at 4, Pack Howitzer at 6 range. It only deals 4 damage in that area, but why can those 4 damage be important? Care to elaborate?
because stats!!! |

american AA ht reliably damage panthers and tigers from the front |

i also find it funny that everyone points to the cone of fire as a stat that makes the mg42/.50 cal so good. this was true a year ago, and may still be true for bad players, but everyone seems to forget the weapon traverse nerf. typically, the mg42 wont even get shots off near the edge of its arc because of how long it takes to rotate. at that point, it can often be too late to reposition as well.
the maxim may have the smallest arc, but it repositions quickly and has a much higher horizontal speed. even if a squad is on the very edge of its arc, the maxim will start shooting at it almost instantly.
this is why, if you can micro your mgs, the maxim is much much better than the mg42 and .50 cal. |

youre full of shit katitof. crew size does matter in flanks. a .50 cal is typically forced to retreat after losing 2 men, a maxim is not.
and what are you talking about "when crew takes damage, then you have failed" squads deal damage to mgs even when charging from the front. |
The collective math-fail in this thread disturbs me - you must all be girls
2*5% multiplied is a 10.25% bonus.
ironic that you messed up your math while criticizing others... |

ive noticed the same thing. i think the bug is people with prestige 1 see every else as having prestige 1. if you look at their actual player cards, it correctly shows that some players are not prestige 1. |
