1. Every weapon has a modifier vs different Targets and cover, garrisons are no exeption. Here the K98K modifiers vs garrisoned units as an example:
Garrison suppression: 0.0
Garrison penetration: 1.0
Garrison accuracy: 0.55
Garrison damage: 0.5

All Data for all weapons vs all types of cover can be found on www.coh2-stats.com .

2. Doesnt matter.
3. The sniper accuracy modifiers can be found by his weapon, the final chance to hit is 2x modifiers, because his base accuracy is 2.

Thx.

Anyone know anything about how targeting models inside work? I feel like most of the time most of the squad survives with few health. I guess the dmg modifier is the reason, but still feels different than most engagements that are on the "open".

If you make it arrive 1-2 mins after the game started, it won't delay your tech, and avoid the whole push/move units from cover situation early game.

You mean, complain and wait for them to be patched to cost munitions?

Or load infantry up into the equivalent garrison vehicle which neither of the German factions have?

OKW doesn't have it so bad due to kubel, sturms, MG34, and slightly later, puma/flaktrack. I've yet to face them as wehr but it could be pretty nasty on some maps, esp since any significant investment into infantry will leave you open to the lieut tech vehicle. Veto stalingrad if you hadn't already, I guess.

Who doesnt veto Stalingrad as Axis?
Mechanized Groups

This thread will try to adress either the effectiveness of some vet abilities or the dubious choice of giving it to certain units and suggestions regarding what should they have.

I'm encourage to post this, since we had been given another unit, Brummbar, another vet ability more in line with the role of the unit.
Take in mind, that i'm not focusing on making new abilities for the sake of it, rather than trying to givethem something more in line with the role of the unit, increase utility/effectiveness of worthless abilities or try using existent abilities in the game (either from the campaign, ToW or other units)

Note: i'm sure i might forget a couple of units/abilities. Feel free to correct or remind me anything.
Note: i'm not adressing overperforming abilities (for example: sprint for snipers)

Medkit ability:
Pios, grens, pgrens, assgrens, Osstruppen (?), Stormtroopers (?)

I think it should stay for Pios and grens, maybe Osstruppen too, but how it works/effectiveness should be tweaked.
A) Either reduce ammo cost and/or increase speed of healing. Basically buffing the ability while not changing it's mechanic.
or
B) Make it work on a similar fashion to SP medic kit. IIRC it's 30muni for 3 packs? Make it 15muni for a single stash. This way you can use it to heal yourself and you don't have the risk of an opponent taking it.

Trip wire flares
I guess every single combat troop. CE, Cons, Penals, Guards (PPSH guards), Shocks, Partisans, Irregulars.

Should stay on: CE-Cons
A)Buff the amount of time the flare stays on sky.
and/or
B)Reduce cost to 5, remove chance of killing entities or doing damage. A cheap intel mine. If it's too spamable, just make it so it's has a cooldown so you can just build several of them on little amount of time.

Counter barrage
Mortar, Panzerwerfer, MHT and Howitzer:

A) I don't have the actual stats neither i know how much it needs to be improved, in order to make it more appealing than autoattack/ground fire.


Tracking
Zis, Little AT gun, Su85, Su76-ISU152

Ninja nerfed, it had it's sight increase remove.
A) Give it back with muni cost increase if needed or with a reduce time.

Vehicle crew self repair T70 version

A)Make it work as the PIV from OKW. Make it full repair while increasing the danger of doing so while mid combat.
B) Or just, you know, make it as it is now but: reduce even further speed, make it fully repair the tank and/or reduce repair speed.


_____________________________________

Now i'm gonna follow it up with units i think should get something different from what they get actually.


PG:
Vet1: splitting part of the receive accuracy bonus they get from vet2
Vet2: RA + Cooldown (what they get now) + Self Healing when out of combat
I thought about a similar ability as the Stormtroopers have, but that would take out any flavor they might have (they aren't great)


Assault Grens:
-If anyone played the campaign, they might remember that Shocktroops had an ability that let them supress units while slowly moving towards the target.
-Or the same ability Paratroopers get when upgraded with Thompsons.

Stormtroopers:
-Vet1: increased capping speed.

_____________

Penals
-Vet1: what about a "zeal" like ability. Increased performance when the squad has fewer members.

Guards
-Vet1: HTD or defensive stance (like the one you get on the No retreat no surrender commander)

Shocktroops
-One of the few units that i don't want to add another ability that would increase the performance of the unit, since i think it is now on a "fine" balance ATM.
-If i think of anything, what about vet1 makes smoke nade stop vehicles from firing (like US smoke nade).

Partisans n Irregulars
-Move some of the vet2 buffs into vet1
-Vet2: increase number of members by 1
OR
-Here i'm a bit more creative. Dunno if theres any way of implementing. On a similar fashion to Paratroopers, what about letting them reinforce after setting one house as a "reinforce point" or from the one they had been deployed.

______________

Ostwind + M5 (when upgraded with AA)
-Increase range/effectiveness of AA capabilities, doesn't move or engage any other threats.

Panzerwerfer:
-While counterbarrage could be improved, what about changing it for a fire denial barrage, like the one from the nebelwerfer from coh1?

KV1-KV2-KV8-IS2:
ATM i can think of something that wouldnt tilt too much the balance or performance of the unit while remaining logical to what it is expected from the unit.

It's a bit late here so i'll end it up.

Edit1

251 Halftrack:
Vet1: supply medical kit. For 45muni start healing everyone on X range from the HT. Movement or combat stops the ability.

KV-2: 152mm Barrage- Fires three shells out to 100 range. Can only be activated when deployed in artillery mode. 80 munitions.
"Personal Edit": make it work as Bunker busting from Brummbar

KV-1: Man the Guns- Rate of fire increased by 30%, movement speed cut in half. 50 munitions, remains active continuously until deactivated, much like Take Aim on the 57mm.

That's hardly an explanation. Supposing I am on my last 4-5 games. There I should find som opponents that will constantly beat me. Well it didn't happen, which means that this can go on. i exasperate my oponents with that stupid maxim spam. Great strategy, what can I say....

I haven´t played a single 2v2 random game since the system change and still at 270 place. Happened to mistakenly search for 2v2 random as axis (was looking for 1v1) lost 1 game and still below 1000 if not it would had been on a similar number.

Also, i just started playing with a partner during the arrival of WFA and on the 20-30 games we were top100-200 (which i was surprised, cause realistically i expect something on the 300-500). When the system finally started to deliver better players we just drop to a more fair number.


Anyway, ranking means shit unless you see who you are beating. That's why i made myself check other peoples ranking after a match for a quickly anaylisis if i should have had problems or not with my opponent.
