Unable to do anything against howis without off map

In CoH1 people spammed howitzers but they costed fuel and was not as effective as the modern howis of coh2 that we have now, you were allowed to flank the howitzers in coh1 and destroy them.


In CoH2 you can make howis as much as you want for just a manpower cost and to make sure you cant get at the howitzers they build tanks such as an su85 and stuff like that. If you wanted to do something to counter it you can dream on until you kill those armor units and the soviet is most likely floating tons of fuel since he has all he needs. Basically what I am saying is that there is no way to kill a howitzer unless you depend on a doctrine.

Some responses would be greatly appreciated thank you. Btw LeFH needs a scatter reduction. In case anyone thinks this is a troll thread like the last one I posted which wasn't feel free to know this is not a troll thread.

Tbh i think all arti should be given a fuel cost. Like coh1.

But at the same time the gun needs a HP increase so it doesnt die in 1 stukka/il2 bomb strike (since the fuel cost would be unsustainable).

tell you what ill make a list of changes...



- LeFe - Needs less scatter
- ML20 - Needs vet reworking (extra 2 shots brings it up to 12 per salvo, meaning it fires the same amount as the LeFe but has ALOT more damage). So remove that and have them at 10 shots per salvo.
- Price changes to both + B4 to 400mp + 90 fuel
- 60% Gun HP increase
- Cannot fire at Base sectors
- Give OKW a commander with the LeFe (or replace the bunkers with it in the defencive doctrine). Still 90 fuel.

Nothing wrong depending on a doctrine. Elefant to take out the Su85s, recon/dive bomb for ML-20. Forgot which doctrine that is prob some festung one.

Make it an Area Denial barrage, rapid fire, very low damage, high area of effect, high suppression (maybe even force-retreat), temporary crits to vehicles.

All I know is that I am getting tired of playing OKW and seeing my trucks evaporate every game no matter where I place them.

OKW really just needs a counter, like a arty unit of their own that has the same range of the ML-20 and Lefi. I vote for the hummel

I use a lot of ML 20's and LEFH's, but I very much like the idea of a certain fuelcost for these giants.
That would make me think twice before building one.

I don't like the idea of relying too much on doctrines to counter a certain something that at this moment, is very much used. It narrows the game and that's not ideal.

Honestly, I don't think that change would do much. I set my howitzers up outside of my base sector about fifty percent of the time already, so...

So you are 3 vs 3 or 4 vs 4 player.

Dive bomb, wurframen, counter howitzer, off map arty, .... do we really need more counters?

Na, 1v1 and 2v2. Sometimes you need the gun outside of your base sector so you can hit the other guys' base. Usually just a few meters or so.

Okw - Just kill ML 20 with walking stuka (possible to not only decrew it.)
Ostheer - plenty Call ins to destroy the ML 20.

The total lack of any reliable counter for OKW should be fixed and the fact the LeFH is shittier in every single way but shells fired to be fixed.

To wit; counter-barrage is actually worse than the normal barrage because it fires less shells while having only more damage on direct hits meaning that you are actually much better off just normally firing with the barrage.

i think they need a range reduction so you have to plant them more at the front. But at the same time they need some duability buff so they wont get 2 clicked countered by off maps (both german and soviet howis).
