Grens are fine, it's still the maps that hurt Ostheer the most early on.
+1
See we never had complaints about a 4 man squad before WFA so why now? The reason is the close proximity of models, just introduce a spread formation problem solved. |
No they dont. its call in meta. get to tiger. get with the program.
I think the Meta is mechanized assault into a Tiger, but I meant in more broad terms. Yes it can be applied to 2 v 2 + as well. |
They are similarly priced to volks.
I feel they should perform exactly like them in the early game.
Volks dont get completely overwhelmed like grens do when supported
Grens are well trained troops compared to Volks so no I don't think they should be priced at 235MP. I don't see anything wrong with Grens at the moment but against Rifles I would say they need a buff. Gren are designed for long range combat and even than Rifles have the "slight" edge. Grens need a long range accuracy and damage modifier. |
I will agree with Jaigen (gasp) T-34/85 wrecks P4 in 1 v 1 battle. The T-34/85 has a superb gun and better armor. Swapping T-34/85 in T3 for the soviets will not solve any problems with the call ins. What I think is a good idea is to take a "Upgrade Sherman Gun" ability from vCOH and apply it to T3 and T4 for USF. |
You should mine more if you are playing as Soviets to counter Panther spam. |
Actually it's probably better to have the caches out and done with early (depending on the map) as a extra Volks here or there under 5 minutes is not going to make or break anything as ground will be constantly won and lost around that time.
The problem is when you build the cache early and get it destroyed early.
Building fuel caches from the beginning as Ostheer is a suicide. Building fuel caches from the beginning as Allies is wasted early game aggression. Point: Don't build fuel caches within first 2 minutes! |

Remind me why people take you seriously again? Or do they?
Nope. |
Back in the old days of coh ram would destroy the engine/gun 100% of the time and the t-34 where only 80 fuel back then. sure the t-34 where shit but a single at gun could destroy any tiger that was rammed. thats why it had no AT vehicle because it didn't need one
Not to mention a ram from the back will destroy the main gun too. |
It's not horrible at all, it needs better late game power (better vet bonus's or optional armor upgrade) but is not in any universe a bad tank. It's one of the best tanks for killing enemy infantry in the game. Good crush, good squad wipe potential, fast. It is at a good cost point right now for what it does. Soviet techning still needs a rework.
And the Jackson is anything BUT bad, it's literally makes building anything smaller than a Panther nonviable thanks to it's great mobility, range, and damage. It's the best medium TD in the game bar none and it makes the Jadgpanzer and SU-85 look like sickley grannies the way it can run around the map punching enemy armor and moonwalking back out.
There are 2 non TD tanks in the game it does poorly against: The KT, and the Panther. That's it.
Reverse your T-34 into the range of your AT guns, watch has he runs up over a mine/gets at naded chasing you and then is killed by your AT guns. If your charging your T34's into his PaK wall anyway your to hopeless to give advice to anyway.
His infantry won't get anywere near your PaK wall thank's to your maxims and infantry. If he tries to crawl up under suppression HE barrage his ass.
Thanks, you are such a pro. Sums up all your post in this Form. Axis back foot scenarios therefore the Axis units are OK or UP. |
Uh, yeah you do have Tigers, and if you are using a Tiger doctrine getting a PIV is a waste of time, fuel and manpower.
Soviets having to use call in's is how the faction works, it's stupid but bitching about it at this point is screaming for nothing. And you don't need doctrinal tanks to counter PIV.
EDIT: Or the Panther for that matter, have you ever heard of a thing called an "AT Gun"?
You mad bro? No man, please educate us how AT gun + T-34 (Panther is hard counter to this) alone stops a panther supported by infantry and paks. |
