Now it seems to me nothing has changed with wher mortar HT as far as incendiary rounds go and i seen nothing in the hot fix. To me it is kind of bullshit that it does good dmg and is great against emplacements just doing its normal thing, but now add the rediculous damage over time to the actual structure with incendiary on top of its bombardments.

Why does it get the double whammy both of best worlds sure incendiary rounds should decrew or slowly burn say RE inside a usf emplacement but they should do no dmg to the actual structure or very very little. With the nerf to brace and the fact you cant repair obviously why the ground is burning i think something needs changed with it. Incendiary rounds should only decrew kill garrisoned infantry and not do dmg to the actual structure. Emplacements are important to brit strategys as well as the usf emplacement at least one is usually involved in most of mine because the 50 cal comes too late and is worthless its pin sucks and just gets taken out as fast as it is deplyed however the usf emplacement actually does its job with its upgraded 50 cal.

On a side note also why do strums do soo much damage to emplacements? Speaking of the usf one if a strum squad gets behind it the strum can easily kill the re inside and then destroy the emplacement with only there fucking machine guns so i assume they to good damage to unbraced brit structures too. That makes no fucking sense. Give me any allied infantry unit with out zooks sitting behind a axis bunker and i could sit there all day shooting at it with little results. I dont know if this was to help strums clear garrisoned buildings faster but if so they dont need that anymore when now okw have incendiary grenades.

Edit. Also i know of no allied unit that lets us take out axis bunkers early that easily. The usf mortar ht i guess but no incendiary rounds so it dosent really do it. Spam russian mortars i guess. 120 was nerfed to shit.

They are extremely potent to brits something needs changed with them they wipe engis like crazy if your trying to repair an emplacement and mostly make emplacements useless similiar to how the mortar HT was. Not to mention how much they drain the already MP hungry brit infantry.

Imo they already have the strongest defense,that would make it even harder to attack them.

Agreed they are already a lot stronger than any other starting unit and insane with lmgs, I hardly see them actually having to worry about cover anyway and they still win the fight.

Retreat is all about unit preservation.
Brace is all about preservation of units which cant run.
Therefore they are similar, cause they are made for the same purpose.

Im still amazed how anyone can compare buildings (trucks) to units which brits emplacements are.

Well said. All the brit emplacements are extremely important and meant to stay around for a while in the game look how much they cost. In the long run though they don't drain mp like tommys and brits can barely afford to reinforce tommys now. Brace should remain how it is.

I get that but what I'm saying is the break out will never happen due to their MP bleed. You will always get 2v1'ed due to your unit costs as well as lose ground very ez as you are very cover dependent as well as emplacement dependent. It just doesn't work the way the brits are set up rn, their units dont preform well enough (AVRE, commando excluded) to validate their cost both time wise as well as resource wise. They scale better than USF but whats the point if you get cut down by double the army value as yours.

Alex your logic behind your post makes sense but with the balance of their early game so awkward and being cover dependent they cant get to late game unless u are bad and let them get there.

Mittens is exactly right have you played the brits Alex against real players? You are always 2v1 unit wise there is no other way, the RE suck at fighting. Axis makes double sniper a 222 flak truck ostwin pz4 rush your pretty much screwed every single time. Usuauly they almost have a pz4 out by the time you get the 6 pounder and you have hardly ANY ground and probably lost your fuel or that is the only small part of the map you do still hold.

You can't just always stay in cover with IS and you don't gain ground that way. Also the 4 man squad makes them highly wipe able from snipers 222 etc. Now paired with soviets and USF they might have a better chance to shine there late ground, but so far every single game you play in trial its brits only. 1v1 I do not see them have any chance of late game either unless as mittens said you do not pressure them and just let them sit there.

All axis really have to do is spam grens or volks and you win everytime the man power bleed will wreck you along with not having any ground help of purely not being able to field the same amount of units
