Profile of Angrade (Ægion)

I know have been doing this a lot and pile of ideas. Instead of making a lot of different threads, I decide just to make one with all. Again, all of these ideas can be tested and played around with my mod. 'Signature' for the link




I have always found the Panzerwerfer, inconsistent. It either wipes a squad generally or does nothing.

The rockets damage has been increased to 100 from 80 but only can hit 2 models per shot. The rate of fire is reduced to all more reaction time. The scatter adjusted to more match the katushya to make it more consistent.

Who has ever used the counter barrage ability for the panzerwerfer? I have removed the counter barrage and replaced it with a smoke barrage that is on a separate cooldown. Vet 1 reduces the smoke barrage cooldown. This may also be more effective in higher level play with hearing more barrages, unable to tell if the player should dodge or not.




I know SneakEyes's mod has recovery squads but I decided to add it in to my own squad. It functions differently. Built by Combat Engineers, Pioneers, Sturm Pioneers, USF/UKF Medics for only 25 fuel. Recovering an allied wounded will give you 10 manpower.




Right now, I only have it applied to Railway but this could be applied to USF's 240mm and UKF's counter part. These "Siege" Artillery abilities only have a niche role and in my opinion not very worth it and not very attractive. This variation could make it much more effective versus all targets, able to stun and snare vehicles, suppressing infantry, and still effective versus emplacements



Long ago, slit trenches were able to garrison mortars. I thought about reintroducing this. Garrison mortars gain increase barrage range as well as units inside gain a passive healing.

How often do you garrison the universal carrier? This this slight adjustment, an garrisoned squad will manned the Vicker's K Light Machine gun with out the upgrade. Is this useful, probably not. But, this could change the dynamic of the unit to out right removal of the pintle upgrade. This could be applied to other units such as the 251. If applied to a unit with 'holds' instead of 'crews' such as the M3 Halftrack, which has 5 'hold' spots, All spots will be filled with men while the gunner can appear as free 6th man.

If anyone wants to test this out, it again can be seen in my mod.

Honestly, I can not think of a time where small arms was used to take down the 251 from full health, or even after a snare. It is usually multiple snares and/or at guns. Buffing its armor or nerfing its counterparts probably would not change much.

This bulletin database should help out

Mechanized company provides the 76mm, which is different than the Easy Eight. Only Rifle Company has the Easy Eight. The easy 8 has a base health of 720 over the standard 640, so it can take another shot before death. It also has 215 armor vs the Sherman 160 so it can bounce more often as well.

I am sorry that some of my comment might be out of point but I could not really follow the video since the sound level of the game was allot higher than the sound of the comment and I couldn't follow them.

Imo the issues with "micro" light have to do with:

Inconsistent DPS curves, inconsistent moving modifiers, inconsistent modifier.

High modifier for off road and on road movement

Early hard counter time like 222 (imo the 221 should return and 222 should be delay and redesigned)

Inconstant durability with different armour, HP
and damage modifiers

Change could also include:
Lowering pop with veterancy

Less RNG for passenger when vehicle is destroyed like removal of death or hard cap to number of casualties, health damage/suppression instead.

Lowering power level of some of these unit, (for instance wasp could become earlier available and cheaper but have the DOT damage moved to an ability instead of always on)

I will see if can play with the audio to fix it.

The turn rates were adjusted to the units will get less caught up on the terrain.

This is why I have the 221 in the mod and the 221 can arrive earlier while the 222 upgrade arrives later, requiring battlephase 1

In the video the armor values are 2 for high damage weapons and 3 for lower damage weapons. The health is at 320. The higher health also means repairs will take longer, tying up engineers for a longer amount of time.

I have not touched the veterancy but lowering pop with veterancy is interesting.

The death of passengers is and only tied to a chance which can be removed. It may be possible to apply a 'mine' effect upon the passengers on death. The reason teller mines seem like they wipe squads so easily is probably because it does not a limit on model deaths and the aoe effect probably kills some/all models.

I will continue to play around the values.
