OKW has reinforced wire and sandbags. I feel the Goliath is more suited for Ostheer. Ostheer can't stop light vehicles in narrow passages or bridges. (Defensive Commander doesn't count because it is worthless.)
Waiting for Relic to overbuff 17 pounder in 6 months when they realize that nobody is building it
Changelog for March 17th Patch
UKF We found the 17-Pounder to be underutilized and it underperforms for its cost. By increasing the damage, this emplacement is more viable to use as a stationary tank-killing platform as its 20 population hinders the rest of the faction's mobile force
QF 17-Pounder Emplacement damage increased from 320 to 450
If it was nerfed, it would be worthless. It needs to be effective.
I understand it can wipe an infantry squad within seconds, but as many have previously mentioned, there are many counters to it.
I wish scouting had a higher importance in this game like in Supreme Commander. Maybe before you send a lone infantry squad into enemy UKF territory, you should scout out the area first.
Has anyone noticed the UKF sniper miss targets in windows pretty frequently? One live stream I watched had a sniper fire at an enemy unit in a building on Arnhem and miss six times in a row until it finally killed a model.
