Hello all,

This is my first post on these forums. I am a 95% allies only player, and I usually never complain about a singular unit in the game. I’ve never written a post complaining about Axis op or whatever. However, there is a unit that has proven to be extremely bothersome through all of my 1300 hours playing. (Id have more hours but I usually take 6-8 month breaks because this game can get cancerous.)

That unit is the German 10.5 CM leFH artillery gun.

While not necessarily overpowered in the sense that it does too much damage, or that it’s too accurate, the biggest issue I have with it is the counter battery ability. This artillery gun can counter battery mortars and pack howitzers, which is quite ridiculous to say the least, and it shouldn’t be this way as the aforementioned units have no way to counter fire. I understand, we should get proper counters to it, blah blah blah, but what if you’ve gone airborne? Waste 320 manpower to kill the crew and lose the airborne squad?

Rush your priests to the frontline only to have them hunted down by a panther? I understand, there are ways to play the game, and if you have a premade team your quality of life is improved by a thousand. But seriously, the leFH counter battery is pretty ridiculous.

I don’t want to be forced to play a certain commander just to have a call in ability to kill this static unit, and in my opinion, leFH guns should not counter light artillery.

What do you guys think? What can I do better vs this unit when I don’t have a call in ability?
