Thread: Tiger Ace Explained12 Nov 2013, 21:24 PM So there is a litany of different prices for different units? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: CoH2 Patch News!12 Nov 2013, 15:01 PM I would love to see a general antitank gun buff (particularly the Zis) but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be incoming. In: Lobby
Thread: CoH2 Patch News!12 Nov 2013, 07:52 AM Basically, the last batch of commanders all got buffed. The B-4 and Railway Artillery buffs are major. The latter also makes festung armor (dude with the glasses and pak43) better. In: Lobby
Thread: MG42 just useless ?12 Nov 2013, 05:01 AM I never understood the complaints about the MG42. I see it as different, but less micro heavy than the the maxim. Overall, I like using a pair of snipers, 1 scout car plus MG42s to capture the front line. I use the Mg42s to bring them under fire, then I micro the scout car to do damage quickly and buy time for my snipers to join the fight. I usually end up with the MG42s doing a reasonable amount of kills, with the snipers and the scout car combined doing twice as much. I lose a lot of MG42/maxim crews but that's the nature of the unit. I lose them, and then reman/heal them. In: Strategy Desk

Thread: Victory at Stalingrad on next week 11 Nov 2013, 21:32 PM I use KV-1 to have a strong mid-game and replace the T-34/76. KV-1's can take out stugs/P4s and is much more survivable than the T-34. I am T-34 phobic and the KV-1 commander is the solution. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Turning Point Update patch notes11 Nov 2013, 20:34 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Nov 2013, 20:21 PMAffe Its not the same gun.The KV-2 gun is a short barreled gun(like brummbar) and ISU-152 gun is longer barreled. You have a point there. It may be just a Brummbar with a turret and a barrage ability. (which is a pretty good thing by itself). Oh well, SU-85/KV-2 combo...... In: News
Thread: Turning Point Update patch notes11 Nov 2013, 20:16 PM The KV-2 is supposed to have the same gun as the ISU-152, so if it has the same gun/stats than it would a strong anti-armor weapon with the AI power of the ISU-152. The ISU-152 has 150 penetration and 240 damage. I presume that the KV-2's armor/hp is the same as the KV-1's. I think, based on the patch notes and elsewhere that it has tank range (40) instead of heavy TD/AG range (100) In: News
Thread: Turning Point Update patch notes11 Nov 2013, 20:06 PM The T-34/85 buff is welcome, but I don't think the nerf to its scatter was needed. : ) Still no fuel cost decrease for the ISU-152. A moderate one, like 30 to 40 fuel less would have made this weapon more purchasable. The German weakness in manpower is addressed with 'elite troops' if troop veterency is a global upgrade. The Soviet Achilles heel...their weakness in late game heavy tanks... is addressed with 'Soviet Industry' w/ the MP to Fuel conversion, repair, and KV-2. In many respects I see this doctrine as making the Soviets more like the traditional German one. The KV-2 is likely to be the Soviet response to the Tiger tank. In: News
Thread: Spotting scopes11 Nov 2013, 00:46 AM Question : How much additional range do they give? In: COH2 Gameplay
