Going to be throwing out another build tomorrow with two things I want to test:

251 Flak Half-Track

The 251 is a very frail unit that is meant to be used in a support/defensive role, but is easily uprooted and killed off even by the light targets its supposed to engage. The change below is to provide 251 Flaks being used in their intended role more survivability but still vulnerable if caught out of position.

-Gains -20% Received Damage after 7 seconds of remaining stationary.

Stuart

The Stuart has received another reduction in its AI power to further emphasize its role as an anti-light vehicle unit with support capabilities. If this change doesn't work, a test where the Stuart has an AEC-like unlock to delay its timing will be tested.

-Deals 25% less damage to infantry at 60 from 80.

We finally got a new title page for the mod on the steam workshop page thanks to RabbitKing and new updates abound!

Version 3.2

General Changes

Grenades
Adjusted their building damage profile to stop them from leveling EF Map structures in a single toss for some grenades.

-Building damage distance from 1/1/1 to 0.9/0.5/0.2

Tank Destroyers/AV Vehicle Units
Adjusted their AOE settings to avoid any chance where they could one-hit squads, such as units exiting buildings or leaving cover or coming around corners.

-AOE now only affects 1 model per squad maximum.

Panzer IVs
Boosted the penetration at range to help them deal with medium tanks better, particularly at range.

-Penetration to 125/115/110 from 125/110/100

AEF

Paratrooper Support Squad (Bazooka)
Added an ability to the Recon Support's Paratrooper acting as a powerful, but temporary snare.

Rangers
Altered the Ranger unit to make them different from the other USF call-in infantry while adding a few abilities to make them more unique. They are now better at mid-long range, but are worse at short-range with their basic weapons.

-Manpower from 240 to 280.
-AOE now only affects 1 model per squad maximum.

Ostheer

-Armour reverted from 14 to 9.
-Gains +5 armour upon upgrading to the Flame Half-Track
-Build-Time from 30 to 45.

Tiger

Increased the movement speed of the Tiger to be more in-line with the less armoured heavy tanks to aid the tank.

-Speed from 4.7 to 5.3.
-Acceleration from 1.5 to 1.7/deceleration from 1.8 to 2.

OKW

Vehicle Emergency Repair

This ability has been boosted as previously it did very little aside from removing criticals and provided minor and little else for a high amount of munitions.

-Cost from 50 munitions to 35.
-Amount of health restored from 10 to 20 per second.

Sturm Offizer

Reworked the Sturm Offizer to be less powerful when centered near a mass of infantry, but added two new abilities to improve individual squads, has lost the mass retreat on death, and now gains veterancy.

-New ability: Hold Position!: Reduces the damage the squad takes by 20%. 20 Munitions
-New Ability: Assault: Increases Accuracy by 15%, reduces cooldown and reload by 15%. 20 Munitions
-Officer reinforcement cost from 50 to 35.
-Officer reinforcement time from 16 to 7.
-Officer Aura has been removed.
-Officer no longer forces friendlies to retreat on death.
-Officer gains Shared Experience from friendlies.
-Mark Target from 1.5 Received Accuracy to 1.3
-Veterancy 1: +7 Range on Hold Position! and Assault!
-Veterancy 2: 0.71 Received Accuracy and -25% Ability Recharge.
-Veterancy 3: +30% Weapon Accuracy. Hold Position! Grant the squad -20 Received Accuracy on top of its -20% Received Damage. Assault goes to 1.25 Weapon Accuracy, 0.7 Cooldown and 0.7 Reload.
-Veterancy 4: -25% Munition Cost on Abilities.
-Veterancy 5: Officer De-Buff Abilities no longer grants bonuses to enemy forces.

Soviets

T-70
Increased its MP cost to match other light tanks and adjusted its AOE settings to be less lethal to squad in cover/bunched up.
-Manpower cost from 200 to 260.
-AOE now only affects 2 models per squad maximum.

They're powerful, but they need a change to their squad formation and the fact their veterancy is very wonky. It's good, but they have to wait until Veterancy 4 and 5 for a offensive combat boost. All their stats boosts should be moved to veterancy 1-3, remove the veterancy 3 survivability and then possibly hit them with 0.8 RA from 0.87. Shuffle things around for either veterancy 4 and 5 such as possible recharge reduction on their abilities, a shift where their passive healing goes, or give them a new ability.

Other things that a need to fix:

-The building popping from general. It's the stupidest thing to exists for all factions when you can suddenly pop a unit out with high AI or AT in hostile territory to wipe out another unit with very little counterplay as you don't know if they'll immediately lock into that doctrine.

-Fallschirmjagers, IS, PGs, Obers, and Sturmpioneer reinforcement on team weapons. Their squads are 0.4 for the reinforcement, by it's 0.5 on weapon teams so they cost more. That should be changed by adding an upgrade at the start of the game to the faction that increases the squad's cost back to original levels while the actual entity costs are lowered and the squad modifier moved to 0.5.

-Fix camouflage on retreat. Quite a few units can pop in and out because the extension for retreat does not have the camouflage_ext set the enable -1.
