Thank you and that's pretty , if I say so myself, nifty as it actually has some trade offs and thought in using it.

Yup good thing you asked that, reminded me. Someone made a bug report thread about it sometime back and I never got around to addressing why it wasnt actually a bug.

Just to check, is that formula actually true? So an easy 8 pens the frontal armour of a ost p4 (180 pen v 165 armour) 91.7% of the time and a jackson ALWAYS pens an ost p4 whatever the facing (220 pen)?

My initial reaction was that couldn't possibly be true but on reflection the jackson mainly just misses a lot and shoots sloooow as fuck and quite frankly I barely ever use them so can't even remember any games of jackson v p4 to think if I'd ever seen a bounce...

I'm pretty sure; I've never seen a Jackson bounce on a vet0 p4(now at vet 2 and vs OKW p4... Different story)The thing with coh2.hu is that it uses the mid range penetration across far/mid/near.

Your math must be off somewhere, I got a 109% chance for E8 vs P4 at mid, not 91%.

However I got 96.9% for Max range e8 vs p4.

Don't forget the chances change depending on distance, at 'near'(point blank) the E8 has 200 penetration I think(I'm pretty sure penetration jumps up or down 20 between the far/mid/near intervals), but at at FAR(Max range) it's only 160.

Fire up just affects movement posture. No actual debuffs once its over, except movement speed obviously, and no buffs like accuracy or damage when its going on.

Stats for alot of stuff is in the commander guides here now.


For combined arms, the stats are

Infantry: -20% Reload +30% Accuracy, +35% sight


Vehicles: +35% sight, -30% Reload, +5 range"

OP, your strat falters against proper light vehicle play and mine sweeping from any of the allied faction... Which is something you start to see around the rank 200-300 level.
I'm not gonna throw playercard pls and insults around, but just know that, you haven't seen proper play yet if you're winning consistently with assault grenadier spam.


But anyway, vs Brits you need a sniper and really good mg micro. You also need a great relationship with our lord and savior Jesus Christ, as he will cause your opponent to mis click and not go advanced emplacement regiment.

I would link u some of our 4v4 USF clan games(we went 43-4 in 4v4 before northweapon quit and show you, its very possible to win 4v4 early game as ALL usf, especially vs okw. really only ostheer stands a chance and its because thye have suppression


Really the keys are

Never send in a squad alone, evne in the first engagement. Wait till ur riflemen is with your RE to push with both of them. Sturms beat your RE? stop sending the RE by itself. Sturm and kubel beat your rifle+re? Wait for your second rifle, sturm kubel and volk? Wait for your 3rd. A forward HQ is suicide for OKW, if you need me to explain why i can.

Ambulance after 3rd, maybe 4th rifle for constant forward presence, soft retreat when you get down to 2-3 rifleman models. this allows you to heal up and basically out blob volks simply because of a high hitpoint pool+ damage output as the early game engagements roll on, they cant soft retreat as well as you can. ambulance heals better than anything in the game. Abuse the hell out of that.

Basically you want to keep regerenating your riflemans health, while wearing down volks and sturms with constant bite, and retreat assaults instead of full assaults with full retreats, or single half hearted assautls against a combined force.
Coordination with your teammates, as well, you need it as allies. of course if u have No coordination any faction is invincible.

tldr
attack with multiple squads, always fight an engagement where you're outnumbering. never send in one at a time, send in 2-3, when one squad gets low pull them back and just keep up a constant assault, coordinate with your team, etc.


And also, even if they nab the fuel and things dont go well to start despite all that, relax. Just have a General Macarthur "Ill be back" attitude, youll be fine
