This thread is not about specific balance issues; but a more general issue. Please keep the rage/nerf/tears away from this thread.

In my experience, brits have the weakest early game of all factions and strongest late game. But I think the power levels of the faction are skewed in the extreme.

Its a mess to survive early-mid game against ostheer even, and keep in mind that ostheer is designed as and well known as a defensive powerhouse i.e. not the best at attacking.

The mid-game is all reactive with the exception of the AEC.

But if you (miraculously) reach late game, the tables turn the other way. Brits have the best lategame of all factions, IF they can get that far.

It is my opinion that the power distribution is skewed in the extreme and that this ought to be redressed. Mind you, I know that different factions are meant to have different strengths, but I think the brits take this approach into a really big extreme.

Please contribute to the discussion by:

First: Is this hypothesis even worthwhile? If not, let us not waste time on it.

Second: If it is; lets try to nail down specific issues one by one; either in this thread or in separate ones.

Please contribute chaps. I've set up some polls, please vote honestly.

Did you play with the balance preview mod? LeIG has had range increased in it.

Many good changes in this balance preview. I'm especially happy for poor conscripts.

It does feel like its way too much but lets wait and see

Why not just launch 10 logically and adjust the rockets to have the same effect? Magic german tubes with two rockets in one tube.

That would entail increasing the AoE. I'm fine with either approach really, the unit feels really inconsistent as it is now
