Even the soviet wouldn't use their sniper as a counter to building, although they normally don't need to.
The british could use sniper to counter garrison, but in comparison to other option it's really one of the worst one.

other way around i wouldnt try it, 6 man squads taking way to long with that 50% hit modifier to buildings)
i didn't know 50% acc modifier of sniper.

I don't know what is the reason, but my Soviet sniper team squads hit models inside of buildings with 100% accuracy.
I've started to notice that approx since Soviet tech overhaul. It wasn't like that before - they indeed had tendency to miss about 50% times.
A bug?
my cheatmod doenst work anymore..maybe someone can check it out

not at the moment because of the insane dmg modifier. besides that soviets have molo to clear building so it was aimed at brits i guess. whats the better option for brits then if sniper is the one of the worst one?

hm first time ive heard about the hit modifier was when the brit sniper had a 100% chance when attacked moved ( not clicking the building). where is cruzz?

Sniper vs garrison stats:
Ost: 2 * 0.325 = 65%
Sov: 2 * 0.4 = 80%
Brit: 2 * 0.5 = 100% (still not fixednfPeter

thanks for the numbers!
hmm i thought ive read some patchnotes mentioning fixing the brit sniper bug, but hey means no brit can ever say they dont have a garrison cleaning tool, they got the best considering the squadsize of axis.

I still wouldn't consider the sniper a good counter to garrison because it is very risky to repeayedly poke at troops inside buildings (especially MGs).

shoot mg, 3 models left, mg packs up mg and set up to face sniper, sniper walks out of range, now you can freely close in with a infantry squad, mg will be forced to pack up again and face infatry squad, you can shoot with sniper again, 2 models left. at this point he needs to make a decision any further second staying can be a wipe. this takes time of 2 sniper shoots from far away, how long is the reload for the sniper? ~10 secs for both shoots? seems pretty fast for clearing a building from far away without taking any damage.
i regularly use sniper to clean garrison as ost when its a small model squad.

They want to promote run like manial into building style of play.
Grenades not even demo can harm a building.
Buidlings die only agains really strong arty.
Unit in building are almost unkillable agains light arty and flakweapons.
Half of faction does not have sniper or indoctrinal flametrower.
I think it is intended

I've also noticed this - demo charges only do like 3/4 building health on a medium/building. Buildings also take ages to catch on fire and receive absolutely no damage from flamers when ungarrisoned.
If this is right, then it's rather problematic for all factions because infantry is very hard to dislodge.
Does this effect also extend to trenches?

experiment 2:
a conscripts squad in building now takes 100 seconds fire of centaur or 200 seconds fire of SdKfz 251/17 Flak Half-track.
