New factions for Coh2 are very limited by its timeframe of 1943-44.

I have long proposed that CoH3 operates in a 1940-41 timeframe, allowing for us to have:

- Italy
- Commonwealth
- France
- Germany

All as viable factions. It also means no super cheese IR STGs and ubertanks.

If we NEED more than 4 factions there are also other possibilities in that timeframe like USSR and potentially other Axis minors (with German support maybe).

Really? You honestly think that the British Empire would've been defeated in 2 weeks if it wasn't for the English Channel? The British Army is possibly the oldest Army in the World along with the Royal Navy; the British Army might not be the best and have numerical superiority, but they were and still are one of the best armies in the World; if Germany got past the Royal Navy, they then would've had to go up against the British Army(soldiers from Canada, Australia, UK, India, New Zealand and etc). Unlike Polish soldiers, British troops were extremely well trained, equipped with the most modern weapons and had competent officers and Generals leading them.

I am 100% convinced that you are some kind of parody or trolling account.

At any rate, the British Army was not "merely" outnumbered, they were already defeated on the ground in 1940 and when not combined with the French military, could not hope to stand up to a fight against the Germans on a large scale. Tactically they could perform well, but strategically the situation would be hopeless if not for the Royal Navy protecting the Channel.

Of course this scenario is a headscratcher because if the channel didn't exist, history would have been completely different in Europe and the UK (if it even existed) would not be a naval-focussed power since it would not have the luxury of being protected by a giant moat.

Also stop slandering the Poles please; they faced a dramatically numerically superior force (particularly in terms of number of tanks and number of aircraft) and fought well considering this. The Franco-British forces had equal numbers of troops and more tanks than the Germans, yet also got crushed. The "Polish charged tanks with cavalry" thing is a historical myth. The only cavalary charge the Poles initiated in WWII was arguably successful in that it succeeded in delaying the German advance in one sector, and resulted in minimal casualties. They charged an infantry battalion, not tanks.

Is it possible for Blitz ability to disable reversing?

Like, keep the speed, but rather than only applying extra forward speed and not helping the reverse speed (which is apparently impossible in the engine people are saying? lmao), if we could lock down reverse movement it would make it riskier. It would be useful in an offensive capacity, but to escape they would need to turn and face their rear armor or find an alternate side route to get out.

No more warp speed reverse to save Tigers and Panthers and utter nonsense like that.

Dies means "Is damaged by" the 50. call actually does not insignificant damage to it and combined with the Puma's low health just makes it lackluster overall.

The .50 cal is a 4 man squad that comes out of T2 with a recieved accuracy penalty that makes it as fragile at a soviet MG that only had 4 men left (i.e. a stiff breeze will decrew it). The Puma comes out of the OKW tier that gives you a free repair station with super engineers that repair at the speed of light.

The Puma is not seriously threatened by USF MGs. It's a very good light vehicle that is even useful later on for damaging allied mediums. It's also got smoke which makes it very survivable.

I don't know or care who it favours, all I know is I'd like them to be removed from all ranked matches. Should be an option for custom games and otherwise stuck in campaign.

Is there a lists of maps favouring one side over another?

Also, factions favoured?

A lot of the time we feel like we're up shit creek because of certain maps but I'd like to know how much of it is just us sucking and how much is reflected by the broader community.
