I do not get why there is increased reinforcement cost in the first place. The only thing it does is increasing bleed. Bleed is not a problem, the fact that units you have forced to retreat return to the field too fast, negating tactical play.

So, instead of increased reinforcement costs, why not just simply increase the time of reinforcement...? It has the same effect as delaying retreated units to return to the field, effecting you more if you loose a lot of models, but it still does give you an advantage of performing semi-hard retreats.

The increase bleed would make it hard to keep blinding charge forward. Your idea of increase reinforce time is unique. I would not mind seeing a test version to evaluate the two.

I favor AELegion's mod suggestion, but also think that Planet Smasher's solution to the problem is better because of 2 things on top of what Legion suggests, and those are that the British will be more mobile without having to rely on static in-direct fire positions thus crumbling Sim-City's support, effectively killing it and that it's still preserving the British uniqueness.

Using the USF Fighting Position as a static emplacement is only unique 50% of the time due to the USF using it as an MG emplacement already, while the British mortar emplacement model will go to waste then.

The reason why I chose the fighting position model, was because it was nice and small. I did look around for the CoH1 mortar emplacement model but it is not in the game while the 25 pounder pit is in the game.

Interesting. I could definitely see that working a lot better.

So do you still keep brace? I personally feel that balance can't be properly addressed until brace either works as a gameplay element or is removed (hence my post).

Maybe a weaker version, but I am not sure. For my mod, I was more focused on the offense and coverage to think how precisely to adjust brace or what would be a good balance for it. It is hard to balance some things when no one gives feed back. But with DBP, I am not really concern with it at the moment. Once or if the DBP is live, I am probably going to re-due my mod or incorporate all the changes in which there is a lot of bug fixes for it.

With the DBP been announced I decided to finish up touches on my mod. I am not going to be working on my mod for now until the DBP is done or off alternative changes and present them in my mod.

Oh Relic!!!! 99% of the patch balance notes are not needed, or at least are not urgent. Why wasting that energy and effort doing that? Please Relic listen the damn community.

Priorities are:
- Increase OST Panther DPS or ROF (or reduce price). Not nerfing it. Read well please Relic.
- Reduce in some way the cancer pits of the Brits.
- Reduce Penals effectiveness.
- Increase Conscripts effectiveness.
- Remove double Brens, doublé 1919s and double BARs.
- Reduce Dhsks effectiveness.

That´s it. Doing this, you balance at least 80% of the issues.

???

-Panther: Problem is teching. It can be BS against to fight with Jacksons since of their lower pen Rate.
-Mortar Pits: More Doctrines that can handle them.
-Penals: Penals are weaker vs light vehicles
-Conscripts: they are being buffed
-Double 1919s are removed along time ago and double Brens are not the problem, 5 man squad is. Double bar are weaker than Pgrens.
-Dhsk: getting nerfed
