I am living in a fantasy land but I also would like to see the T70 and SU-76 swapped.

So much this.

Not saying its bad.

Im saying Building stuka is a risk. 100 fuel is a alot. Need more options in the lower range fuel for early game counters.

At a total of 140 fuel the stuka is the fastest arriving big arty in the game. There is a risk to using your first 140 fuel to rush it but that early of a stuka can pay off big if you defend it properly. If you want earlier artillery the LEIG is a very safe buy and will consistently bleed your opponent MP. It, like all mortars, isn't going to be the ultimate infantry hard counter you seem to want early game though.

If you want a 50-60 fuel early game vehicle based infantry counter buy a 251/17 and learn how to micro it.

Do we really want to play a game where a direct hit from a 152mm howitzer round or 300mm rocket doesn't turn infantry into blood mist?

One way to make the abilities more useful would be to increase the munitions cost of the abilities in conjunction with an increase in their potency. This way the abilities won't be so micro intensive and would actually feel useful enough to encourage use with some regularity. Just some ideas:

Trip Wire Flares: Increase the aoe radius or adjust the aoe profile so that when it goes off it will not only kill a member of the squad it hit but also take a decent amount of health from the remaining members. This way it not only would alert you to the presence of a squad but also significantly weaken that squad for a counterattack.

Med Kits: Make the ability an aoe heal over time similar to the US medic truck or allow the squad using it to function identically to medics for a short duration. If this is too powerful then just copy vCoH and have the ability heal the squad using it.

In addition, some infantry could be diversified or given additional roles by giving them different vet1 abilities. For example:

Shocktroopers: Instead of trip wire flares give them a sachel charge. They are meant to assault positions and historically were combat engineers so a sachel would make sense. It would also help shocks deal with emplacements and buildings more effectively. Might be too OP to give a unit smoke grenades, regular grenades, and a sachel charge though. MG crews wouldn't like it.

PGrens: Instead of medic kits give them a smoke grenade. This would allow players to use them as an assault unit once they hit vet1. Since German smoke grenades were nearly identical to stick grenades relic wouldn't even have to create a new grenade model.

I suppose if you think rifles are over preforming it's consistent. Saying that their 290mp cost was to low while also saying they were worse than a 280mp squad just struck me as really odd like you had added on to someone else's thought. So I take back that comment.

However, I will never take back the .gif!

You are actually correct Retaliation. Vetlolcake plagiarized a balance post by C0ffeebeanz on the official forums then inserted his own opinions on top of it. You can find C0ffeebeanz post here.

Try to spot all the differences!
