allies flares are worst renmants of old world.
back when Ost weapon teams and Okw trucks were strong to lock down sectors.
There is no reason why allies flares still have such cheap cost and long linger time.
There is also no reason why OKW should be allowed to have free gun on their tech or be allowed to place it outside of the base, but here we are. |
Most of us don't remember the last time you played the game, no
All of these magnificent flavors in the world and you have chosen to be salty... |
Anyone else remembers how it took 5 T34/76 to kill ONE P4 and if it was frontally, it wasn't even certain win? |
In fact I play more as an allied than Axis, I know well what it is to deal with a swarm of Panthers, and I also get a smile when I see an OST boy call a Tiger, because I know that guy wasted a lot of fuel and manpower.
Yeah, heavies are now addition to an army, not an army in itself as they used to, somehow not all players got the memo and try to use it as a powerhouse that doesn't need to be supported.
Its a bigger P4, treat it as such. |
Against the Comet it also bounces twice in a row, I honestly decided to stop choosing the commanders who employ it. It takes a long time to arrive, it is very expensive, it is very slow, and let me tell you that against the infantry it is not exactly good, a blind man armed with a sling and a stone has more aim and kills faster than that thing. Two Panzer IVs are more useful.
As already established, Tigers penetration is not exactly exceptionally high, its rate of fire is, and comet has more armor then KV-1.
At least, with comet you now feel how it is to fight against panther with tanks(kind of). |
Won't PGs still win if shocks advance?
Not necessarily.
Depends on distance, cover for both on the way, use or not of nades and vet. |
At close range the G43 does remarkable damage, however a Shock Troop PPSh does more, and there are 6 of them vs 2 G43's. The Grenadiers will probably kill one as they close in and another during combat, maybe even two, but Grenadiers will never win on their own against Shock Troops. Really Grenadiers and Shock Troops are as incomparable as Conscripts to Obersoldaten.
He literally says 2 gren squads there.
Obviously 1 will be beaten, that's the sole purpose of shocks, to roll over long squads that aren't StG obers or PGs who know how to use nades. |
Okay but that's part of what people are saying. No one should build a quad if they want AI power. It's not terrible, but it's not good enough to justify delaying a t70.
And if you get it right after the t70 that makes even less sense because of the p4 that's about to be breathing down your neck with nothing to contest it
And if you finally DO get M5 without a swarm of planes above your head, quad is not the reason. |
That was what the old vet 3 bonus was. It was removed, unless there was some kind of mistake
Old bonus increase default range too.
Was changed to barrage only.
No idea about accuracy increase. |
think making scott doctrinal might be a nice idea, don't know which doctrine it should go into though, but getting a new commander for USF would be nice.
as it is, USF has 3 mortar types stock, trade 1 of those in for a stock (though heavily nerfed calliope to bring it more in line with its peers)
Unless you want to just swap it with calli, then its a cocaine induced dream. |
