"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?..The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and... the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough...We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

Thread: Pershing vs Tiger. Shouldn't Pershing be buffed?16 May 2021, 21:19 PM Jump back to quoted post16 May 2021, 20:03 PMSkysTheLimit It's not priced accordingly at all. Especially if you're telling me that a 110 muni ability that takes up a commander slot has to basically be considered a default for the unit And I really don't get why people use "design" arguments for the WFA anymore. These factions don't even resemble launch design. Like not even close. If you're going to give USF a heavy tank, make it a heavy tank. Or remove it from the game entirely. Cause USF has more then enough ways to kill infantry, and none of the other ones require me to waste 230 freaking fuel Sidenote: are there any videos/ playlists of demonstrations of the factions before reworks and such? I came in in 2019 and missed most of the absolute insanity and I wanted to see what it was like. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Buff for 5 man grens11 May 2021, 20:59 PM Jump back to quoted post11 May 2021, 17:50 PMjagd wölfe When fighting against other infantry survivability depends on the ability to handicap enemy dps capabilities. We can create any situation and engagement against infantry and we'll see how having a single model with an mg42 allows mg42 grenadoers to be better because that mg retains its dps, so that survivability is just apparent as damage is dealt and entities drop. This is why squads that have a dps distribution that is more even between all squad members are less elite and generally cost less to reinforce. VSL is not a bolster infantry where you simply add a squad member. You trade that better dps upgrade with the extra squad member, but the squad itself will always perform worse in any situation, so there's no use for that survivability. This may be my opinion and probably it's not popular, but the overall value of the squad goes down, and so should the cost to reinforce it. The moment VSL drop 2 models their dps is greatly impacted, while this is far from true for lmg grenadiers, and dps retention causes the enemy to drop models himself, meaning it will be able to deal less damage overtime than it would while fighting with VSL grens Playing devil's advocate here; while I agree with your point about LMG grenadiers having an advantage in battles because of DPS output, I definitely can't agree that LMG grens are more durable. Yes, LMG grens will drop troops faster than VSL grens and therefore take less damage overall, however I definitely think that 5 men is nothing to sneeze at. Especially with the free medkits. If you properly support VSL grens you can repel enemy attacks and heal for free, which helps to offset the lower DPS because you have an advantage on model health IMO. I definitely think that it's a poor choice offense-wise. But then again, if you want better offense you have panzergrenadiers. Honestly I think it's very useful to have a more durable snaring squad to support tanks, even if it's not incredibly effective at dishing out damage. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Is the m1919 worth it's cost?6 May 2021, 18:58 PM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2021, 17:33 PMEtherealDragon Tightrope has tried RE 1919 spam on his channel if you aren't aware/follow him. From what I can tell he's had decent success. I'm kind of curious if 1919s affect Volley Fire at all now... I haven't been following the patchnotes but if there hasn't been any changes to volley fire since the RE veterancy increase it should still affect it. In: US Forces Strategies
Thread: Is the m1919 worth it's cost?6 May 2021, 17:21 PM Jump back to quoted post6 May 2021, 06:37 AMUlaire Minya yeah for sure, any luck with rechie 1919 spam? I only ever go balls-to-the-wall like that against AI hahaha. But it is pretty fun because they'll vet up fairly fast (well, at least they did before the vet increase. I haven't done it since then) and when they hit vet 3 they gain a 5th man. So it's basically like a 5man con squad that can: suppress; do damage with an lmg; build MG nests, barbed wire, and light vehicle mines; reinforce for less than Riflemen; and repair vehicles too. But of of course you lose the patented Rifleman survivability and accuracy and the only infantry snare in the faction. That's why it's pretty ballsy to do against players. I guess you could make good use of the light vehicle mines to counteract it somewhat but I don't have the APM for that haha. In: US Forces Strategies
