Panzergrens are actually too expensive to be made into blobs (Even for team games, but usually I only count 2v2 as team games and exclude the above cause 3v3+ is just a completely different game), but I can see it being a thing. Still, it already happened (Very rarely due to the fact that PGs are rather expensive) so adding repair ability won't change much to be honest.‎

Make it a vet2 ability, which is disabled if Schrecks are bought.
PG combat wise are fine now with the new vet AND SPECIALLY with the nerf to the whole rest of the units.

IMO:
CE, Pios, Cons and Grens are fine having their current vet1 ability. Flares could be deploy even slightly faster since they are not longer lethal or have the chance to cheese it on doors.

The list might be shorter on OH cause they generally have better abilities on the mirrored units (Incendiary rounds, incendiary shot, TWP, blitz). Not really want to improved PROstruppen abilities (and still not sure what to do with them).

A)Most simple idea is to make all of their abilities start on cd.

B)On top of idea A, what about making them start with "vanilla" (bolt/semi auto action rifles) weapons and force them to upgrade for 0muni to their stock weapons. Make it takes 15s/30s.

Didn't they fix/give UKF HT proper vet2/vet3 ?

The coh2charts so far only display how many games have been played, not winrates. GCS is confined to "balanced" maps. Had other maps been in the pool that were allies advantageous their winrates would be much higher.

1-CoH2Charts does display winrates (just filter for 1v1, arranged teams or randoms) but that doesn't translates automatically to a fact for claiming that X or Y is imba. As i said before, it shows a trend. A sign something MIGHT not be right.
With the nature of CoH (low playerbase, high amount of imba skillwise matches, assymetrical faction/maps balance) it's hard to use this values but i personally consider that between +5 is practically acceptable. Anything higher than that it MIGHT mean something is not right.
NOTE: there's a thread by Siphon X which explains it better. But you have to be naive to ignore the meta matchmaking movement of people swapping factions cause "they are now more enjoyable".

High skill level balance is what matter, so GCS is in fact more important, but you need to have some kind of perspective of how the average player is doing as well.
At the moment the trend seems to be simil.

2-About maps. Problem with matchmaking is that you can't know which map you are gonna land on nor your opponents so you can't really prepare for them. On a tournament setup, you know up to some point which faction your opponent prefers, map and what commanders you can fill for that map. EVEN if a map is slightly favour for one or either side, the overall sample shouldn't be as DRASTIC for some factions.
Kholodny and Faymonville threw "balanced" average results on previous ESL cup. Crossing has always been imba and that leaves Crossroads. Do you really thing that if we threw into the mix Semoisky, Langres, Angoville or any other map the values would vary so much?


TL;DR: just in case this smells like Axis OP allies UP. It's more of: there's smoke in the horizon. It should be a GOOD idea that the scope was bigger this time. After nerfing cheese and leaving untouched some factions, it was expectable to see this kinds of results. Which doesn't mean the patch is bad, just that it shows how some factions strenght was only on it's cheese and not "proper" gameplay.

PS Skill nades are as easily dodged as regular nades due to the animation. Flame nades the same.

YOU WON'T dodge flame nade to the face. Regular nades or even nuke elite nades have a timer, which makes dodging them on landing a possibility.
Flame nade dodging possibility comes from it's fly time, which is negligible when sharing the same cover.

That been said, they are expensive and the only real anti garrison tool they have.
KINDA OFF: would it make more sense to give them molotov or make it only target garrison instead?

Tommies, Riflemen, Penals all have better damage output than Volks and can all be upgraded with handheld AT even though volks had their shreks removed 'cos "Not fair to have blob countering their hard counter". But it's ok that allies can have it. #Alliedfanboylogik

The problem was that Volks ACTUALLY gained AI when they upgraded schrecks (sniping models) and vet. Which means they didn't sacrifice AI presence on top of been cheaper to reinforce and they could still pick up weapons on field (vet AT issue just fixed on this WBP). Volk schreck blob was as mindless as maxim spam. You didn't care about losses, you A move and retreat after firing a volley of AT and sniping a tank.

NO ONE puts Zook/PIATS on Rifles/IS. IS are expensive and suck on the move and Rifles are on a simil boat. Penals AT blob is a joke and makes you look bad but if you mention it. NOW, the real platform for double AT are RET (which got mp and vet nerf) and RE (proper nerf to vet3 and PIAT change).
