Hi,

Just thinking out loud: We haven't seen buildable / callable arty for OKW.
Relic guys, if you're browsing, and decide that an Arty Commander is a good idea for the OKW, I would absolutely LOVE to see the comeback of the Hummel howitzer.

Thoughts?

The Hummel in vCoH had a 220mm shell and only fired 4 of them in a salvo.
I would say mobility of a Preist/Sexton with slightly more fire-power than the standard Axis arty available.

Hummel?, that would be almost like a B4 howitzer firing 4 times, if the Sexton and the Priest get buffed, then go right ahead (Maybe it could still destroy bridges with 1 shot like in COH 1)

No, no, that would be OP for sure.
A bit more damage than Sexton, but less than B4. If B4 can destroy a bridge in 1 shot, then Hummel should do 2

you forgot to add here krupp stell coeficient.

So 150 *3 = 450 mm (krupp stell)

I would much prefer a Nebelwerfer.
It is unique in that it isn't a vehicle.
It's kind of a crazy technology and thus suits OKW.
Lastly, it is a well-known, very recognizeable asset from WW2.

All right you caught me, basically it could work like copy of ML-20 howitzer, dealing 200 damage with a 8-10 shot barrage, enough to lockdown an Area or shell enemy´s base to the ground,

Or make it fire 4 shots with 320dmg, so it can act as a shock unit when it appears

Loads of doctrines that could use overhauls/buffs

German Infantry Doctrine
German Mechanized Doctrine
Jaeger Infantry Doctrine
Defensive Doctrine (both factions)
Blitzkrieg Doctrine
Conscript Support Tactics
Guard Rifle Combined Arms Tactics
NKVD Rifle Disruption Tactics
Recon Support Company
Royal Artillery Regiment
Firestorm Doctrine

Most of these commanders have good abilities, but are just too weak. Others are just overshadowed by better, more useful commanders.

I think we gonna see another commander. I mean, we saw 3 different faces for USF commanders. We already saw 2 of them, so 1 is left.

My guess is, we gonna have one more USF and OKW commander, maybe with Hummel.

Actually the Sexton has 87mm shells, while the Hummel housed the bigger 155mm, so if anything, it should have double the damage of a sexton.

Eh, OKW already have mobile nebelwefer-esque unit, the support gun.
Plus, it'd be historically more accurate if Ostheer get it, as Hummels were primarily deployed on the eastern front

Dont hold your breath mate - sega seems to be focused more on $$$ revenue for new DLC shit, rather than fixing things that are broken

I dunno, I want to see the Nebelwerfer but I think it would be too much like the Stuka Zu Fuss on OKW.
