Yeah this has always been something that has irritated me, especially how the medics individually heal individual men from random squads. I would prefer if all 3 medics would work together to heal one squad fully and then move onto another squad. It is such a waste of time, waiting for them to heal single man but they go ahead and heal everything else.

Part of the reason why USF have the best medics asides from the aura heal is when they exit from the truck, all 3 medics will target the one squad you want. They do it incredibly fast like that.

I don't even think there is healing priority. Seems random to me.

Will Relic be continuing the commander rotation system after this period ends? They have to in my eyes as it is such a great system to get people to taste the DLC.

Attack move is useless for me and helps my opponent more than myself. I used it in CoH1 for long range units like the sniper, but in CoH2 it does anything but that.

Firstly, reason being the effects of fog of war with truesight. To often does my sniper momentarily lose vision because of a single tree and it walks straight into my opponent. The main maps this occurs on is Minsk and Crossing.

Secondly, I don't find the unit will always attack from its maximum range anyway but will choose to shoot a little bit closer when attack move is utilized.

I just rather have full control of my units. Attack move prohibits that. It works consistantly well on some maps, but I do not want to change all my mental play style for a couple of maps (Minsk/Crossing) where it is not 100% reliable. You end up babysitting your units more if you use attack move than if you don't on these maps.

I only use it blow up weapons/wrecks in CoH2.

"A no brainer AT unit choice"? Than how should we call the raketenwerfer? A idiot's AT choice? I mean, if OKW is punished by having the raketenwerfer instead of a reliable ground AT, it should be punished even more with the Puma nerfing?
All these calculation you people made here will not reflect in real life where a soviet player will storm with several T34s against your 1 - maybe 2 nerfed pumas.

But changing all these (and/or Puma) what we will obtain? A faction that was designed on poverty because it has its elite units, will loose the word "elite", and it will have just units like the other armies, but with a resources handicap. Is that .... balance?!

Yes, it is a no brainer AT unit choice. If you have got the fuel to make a puma as OKW and your opponent has any form of vehicle on the field, then just make a puma. Even if he doesn't its still not a bad idea to get one out and vet it up early, especially since infantry can't really kill it anyway unless you make a serious error. A lot of the times you will find multiple pumas perform significantly better than the more fuel costly OKW armour. Not to mention the fact you will get them earlier.

I never said the rakentenwerfer was a poor unit either. It can easily deal with multiple armoured units with just with just shrecks support, especially on urban maps. However, if you can afford a puma it is always better since you get a range advantage and increase your armour kill potential.

Anyway, the other OKW strengths and weakness units are irrelevant in the context of this discussion, especially since we are discussing the puma. The puma is one of those units that can deal with anything with just some basic micro.

The puma has many strengths including:

• Range.
  
• Penetration.
  
• Speed.
  
• Accurate fire when moving.
  
• Vet1 = Instant win engagement.
  
• Reliable soft AI.
  

The few weaknesses it has (low armour, low health) are easily mitigated by its speedy forward or reverse action. Everything makes it pretty much a stand alone unit that all it requires in combined arms is a unit to scout for it so does not get in a unfavourable position.

lmao Barton and Vonny

Good read Milka!
