when you spam panthers, you stay alone in AT department.
because you have specialized anti-infantry vehicles that can decimate enemy infantry models regardless of what they belong to (ostwind, brummbar), your standard medium tank (p4) is also really, REALLY good at consistently bleeding models, and its not too uncommon to kill all enemy squad models but one.
if you really hate comets just build a ferdi and you basically hard counter any and all ukf armor |
USSR gave little to no crap for live of their soldiers and citizens, especially during early stages of the war. Actually in campaign the whole SOV power structure was portraited as evil, not the soldiers. But Relic, instead of investing time learning history and facts, they invested time in watching "Enemy at the Gates"... So they pretty much did a disservice to how actually violent USSR was by painting it as simple dumb evil.
they obviously gave a shit their own people, asides from the virtue of fighting a war for their entire existence, examples like the siege of leningrad and many other evacuation attempts show that they did care. their military actions in the early war were acts of desperation to stop an enemy who exploited the incredible blunders of the early red army.
showing brutality and cruelty of a regime is fine, they did fucked up shit, fucked up in the war and so on. But, the campaign does not do this, they focus on making the regime appear so evil, that they make up completely debunked and non existing scenarios, like being shot if you merely look at the commissar, being sent to battle without a rifle intentionally, you burn your own soldiers with flamethrowers, shoot them with machine guns, execute them FOR WINNING ENGAGEMENTS, no tanks no aircraft no rifles, but you win the war anyway? And also send them into fortified enemy positions without said rifle.
even funnier because they made the American troops heroic for charging into fortified machine gun positions. If you're going to make the protagonists as villains, do it right, the russians will spit on you for this campaign

Spoiler: Stalin and the Soviets were, in fact, evil.
the campaign does not have stalin as any sort of relevant figure within the game
the campaign features a story plot that is completely made up to portray the soviets as an Asiatic horde of uncivilized savages, who only won the war because of their endless numbers and their complete lack of regard for human life. this IS NOT "oh the commies were akhully evil thus campaign is woke", this is spitting in the face of those who gave their lives away in order to defeat the most evil regime in Europe
Not only is a lot of the game fictionalized propaganda, but Isakovich is a pussy and should've shot himself |
Yeah so does the panther lock you out of other units? Doesn't the panther outpreform the comet in other areas? Or are we gonna pretend it doesnt?
The panther has less aoe but better pen.
The panther has 160 more hp and simaler armour values. More range and better reload at vet.
Dont just type stuff off one unit does well and leave out everything the other does well. Its a misleading picture wich can make it look biased.
I do feel the combo of nades and wp is too much. One or the other should go.
wp >>>> grenades
one is integral to defeating and decimating infantry at a lot of range, the other needs you to go in snare range |
In fairness: Apparently the actual man hours and material cost in RM was identical between a Panzer IV and Panther. Furthermore, sure, Germany could build four StuGs to a Tiger, but could they man them? Could they fuel and oil them? Though I suppose there's an argument to be made given parts shortages (to the point of units literally fighting each other to get parts for their vehicles) that it'd be better to have four StuGs worth of spare parts.
And more:
imagine a country which is bombard everyday and night and sourrounded by the half world and has low ressources at all and is in fight over whole eruope, north africa, pacific, atlantic and asia...
and is able to produce in every department of weapon class mostly the best of the best product.
which was able to beat in most cases the allies counterpart product in most fight consterlation easily.
remind you that germany fight with something like 50k tanks overall vs around 300k tanks.
yes a panther had its weakpoints...but it was able to fight whole tank companies by itsself often with much less losses.

Yes. That's why I said the commander was completely ficticious. Sherman isn't that good in teamgames and I just wanted an excuse to give USF T34s  .
yes but i do not see a gameplay reason for usf getting the t-34, makes no sense, not even the good t-34 but the bad 90 fuel one.
Not even cons get an entire squad's worth of PPSH's and they are pretty strong in close range where they weren't beforehand. Meanwhile riflemen are already pretty good in close range so I think it's probably fine. Maybe an extra PPSH to lower the mid range damage a bit more but honestly unless they're getting a different version of the PPSH I think 6 would be insane.
conscripts get x4 ppsh (previously x3) and are 240mp, riflemen are 280mp, penal battalions 290 and they get full ppshs, but nobody used them while they were obtainable for 1cp. PPSh is good, but not that good that only 2 will suffice.
Coming pre-equipped with PTRS sounds good but it would just give US too much momentum b/c then they don't have to spend as much munitions on their AT, therefore they can spend more on BARs for their infantry. I think they should have to upgrade for them, but it could be like a quick upgrade and cheaper compared to 2 bazookas.
the PTRS is still completely inferior to the bazooka that the rangers would normally get. they are elite infantry so they should receive the full power of their upgrades, like the soviet equivalents do (except ass guards who only are worth for their bazookas)
Most likely.
EDIT: I bungled the formatting.
the ml-20 is nothing impressive but its still static arty, that the US lack |

it would be a very shitty doctrine in my honest opinion
raid tactics - alright i guess
t-34/76 - completely pointless due to the existence of the sherman, historically and thematically this doesn't fit the faction either
PPSH tactics: weak, give riflemen x5 ppshs or upgrade to 6 man squad with x6 ppsh.
Rangers: the PTRS would be pretty useless straight up, svt count increased to x6 or x2 dp-28 at the very least, or combining and having a x2 ptrs/x2 dp-28 guard clone with svts as secondary rifles
and the ml-20 is pretty alright, this alone would probably be the reason this doctrine gets picked in team mode |
but any nerf to the Scott the brummbar needs in turn. Otherwise both are fine.
but no the bruhbar is 150 fuel and belongs to wehrmacht it would be very unfair to be a powerful assault vehicle that can 2shot most infantry and support weapons and have a vet 1 barrage that fires rapid shots, firing even faster than the pre nerf zis barrage

ostheer sniper is rather strong because you reduce the enemy squad by 1 model, fighting 4 model riflemen and 5 model conscripts is considerably easier with grenadiers, the soviet sniper works in exactly the same way, except its actually less efficient if you face LMGs, for their firepower is all focused in one squad
nerf not needed, despite snipers being real fucking annoying |
