You still need the upgrade for the weapon upgrade. In this case, you can just put the upgrade behind the truck placement.

Without going into cost adjustments, this is what i'll rather see for OKW as a whole.

-Faust after truck is called. I think this will eventually come. Which will give room to buff units like the M3A3.
-Replace flak bunkers on base with normal MG bunkers.
-Swap reinforcement with medics as default on BGHQ. Have them heal slightly slower. Put a 45/60 muni upgrade for normal/improve healing speed.
-Fuse reinforcement + retreat point and give it a new cost.
-Obers can be deployed from HQ after 2 trucks had been placed. Any combination. LMG behind FlakHQ. Maybe IR STG without it as Spec OPs is not as strong.
-With previous suggestion on call ins + cost swap, i think JPIV could be behind the first part of the Flak HQ.
-As far as vehicles requirements go, Panzer Req should be a 1 time bought, but the weapon upgrade not. If you lose the Flak HQ, after deploying it vanilla you should still have access to vehicles but not the Flak cannon, which would need to be rebought.

I'll rather test Hetzer + Ostwind require no Panzer requisition while increasing the base cost of the Flak HQ (reduce cost of upg accordingly.

As incredible as it may seem, SU76 has more penetration (and more range) than the StugG.

I think you are looking at the old Coh2stats which has outdated stats. Though the difference is barely there due to the range difference.

HE Barrage AOE damage from 1/0.15/0.125 to 1/0.375/0.125
HE Barrage AOE distance from 1.5/3/4.5 to 0/3/5"
This is a major buff with more than doubling mid damage and increasing the far aoe.
The change to near AOE distance would bring the uni in line with mortar but it still does full damage of 80 instead of 68 for the PM-41.

That's not how it works. When you have 80dmg unit with 0 in near distance, only on a direct collision hit, they will do 80 dmg. It's basically the same principle with mortars though the change is applied differently (IIRC the mortar has a dmg modifier lesser than 1 instead of having the distance near set at 0). You can check serealia list it as having 0HK radius as 0.

To describe the damage between current Zis, mortar and previous Zis it would look like this:

-Old: Deals full 80dmg till 1.5. Then drops harshly from 1.5 to 3.0 dealing 12 dmg and so on. Middle point of 2.25 would be doing 46dmg. At 2.625, 29.

-New: It goes from 80 on direct hit (will only apply to structure/vehicles) and linearly drops down to 30 up to range 3. Yeah it basically deals 79dmg if it lands right on the foot of a soldier. It deals 55dmg at 1.5 and from there it drops to 30 dmg to 3.0 range. At 2.25 it would be doing 42.5. At 2.625, 36.25dmg.

-Mortar: direct hit 80 but it starst at 68dmg which goes linear till 1 range. From there it drops down to 40 dmg till range 2.

Without checking the whole thread:

Yes. But not in the way some might expect.

They don't need unit stat buffs, rather than accessibility/tech adjustments.
