To be honest mg42 incendiary rounds are way better than this.

Imo vet1 camo for vickers sounds better.

Sustained fire if something could make sense with the vickers.

If you have trouble understanding the advantage of extra range (and damage and penetration) I can not really help you.

So in other words, you don't have an argument. And dont try to change it now either, you specifically said "outranging the MG" was the problem, and you still haven't given a reason

I already said the pen bonus is unnecessary, try to keep up

An mg that can fight other hmg but out ranging them is a bad idea...

What about an HMG in the faction that has 0 mobile non doctrinal indirect fire team weapons?

What about it?

What is the relevance of an HMG which is direct fire weapon with indirect fire weapons?

What is the relevance of your entire argument? You still haven't provided a reason it's not okay for the vickers to temporarily outrange other MGs for a cost

Mortars are intended to counter MGs teams, something the brits solely lack.

Pyro + vickers nondoc is pretty lame to just creep forward pushing your opponent out while he can't return fire or see you. Similar to OST pios or pathfinders just seeing their opponents without your opponent being able to do anything about it.

Can't return fire with what? An mg42? Mortar will still work. The whole point of MGs is to prevent the target from returning fire. So you flank it with something else or shell it with arty

I would like to see that maneuver in practice cause Idk how that would even work. There's a lot of time where the Vickers isn't firing if you're moving it AND using the ability

If it was a passive trait no longer tied to garrisons yeah it would be OP as hell. As a timed ability with a forced reload? Don't see how

Similar to OST pios or pathfinders just seeing their opponents without your opponent being able to do anything about it.

Yeah I think those units are fine? And there are many examples of things those units spot for outranging their target, just not MGs, which aren't meant to fight eachother anyway

Yes UKF luck mortar but there is no relevance between that and having a HMG with 52 range.

If you do not have tool A, tool B needs to cover for it and do more.

You know, like whole fucking brit roster.

Because all indirect fire weapons outrange HMGs, aren't they? So HMG with increased range may be used as an HMG counter. Please read your earlier comment and my reply to it more closely.

So now in your opinion Vickers needs to have more range in order to fight Axis HMG when just the other day you posted:


Why?
If you're fighting HMGs using HMGs you are already doing it wrong.


You aware that you are contradicting yourself, right?

You have to katitof about that according to who:

"If you're fighting HMGs using HMGs you are already doing it wrong."

If UKF need more tools to deal with HMG there are better solution than vickers.

Or you could just answer the questions people have been asking you.

You still haven't given any justification for why a Vickers shouldn't be able to temporarily outrange other MGs for a cost...
