Not jack of all trades but get a FREE snare, STG's that can be upgraded anywhere,free fire nades to clear garrisons and team weapons and good vet? They can't fight proper armor thats it. But they don't fall off compared to other mainline that also have to RESEARCH RACKS AND SIDETECH FOR THESE GOODIES. OR PAY FUEL FOR 1 EXTRA MEMBER

Still not a jack of all trades unit. PFaus isn't killing anything over a pixel of HP thats a LV or stronger. Also the side tech is warranted considering how much stronger BAR and BREN upgrades are late game when compared to STGs. Volks vet is worse than Rifles, Infantry Sections, and Penals. Cons also have good vet but their mosins are terrible. Volks get outscaled by Rifles, Infantry Sections and Penals but are better early.

>dont use ur versatile mainline infantry into OKW
>OKW stg's still beat conscript PPSHs and STG's are stock
>u need to close distance to do anything with a PPSH
hahahah

PPSH conscripts lose to any infantry past the close range mark but beat almost anything axis has at close range. Also at vet 3 they are pretty durable and quite strong.

Yeah don't spam cons into OKW. Think about it as how USF sucks because they get outspammed by OKW by using worse early game infantry and times that by two with Cons and Cons don't outscale like Rifles do. Cons with support weapons or t1 penals and clown car are the way to go against OKW. You are basically playing shitty USF into USF's worst matchup and with 2 other opening that are 10x better against OKW their isn't a point in con spam.


Meanwhile Allied has to pay for anything close to it by locking themselves to commanders.

Personally, I would love to have an HE sherman on OKW or OST but thats not now factions work. Each faction is different and the price tag of the p4 justifies its performance.

Still stock and better than IS-2 without added CP need or the fact that u have to lock urself to a commander.
IS-2 is better than the KT. ISU-52 is also way better and comes in meta doctrines if you really desire a heavy tank. Also, note that KT gets stomped by all 3 TDs on the allies side.


Why can't soviets/USF/UKF fight with non-vetted stock units? U need vet or u bust making preservation from OKW side a meme. Even guards with DP's suck without vet compared to Obers with LMG upgrade while not being stock.

Because none of these factions have an infantry unit in Tier 4, Volks definitely still need unit preservation since unvetted volks will getting eaten alive by vetted allied infantry. Obers are also expensive to get and maintain and while they are very powerful they have an obvious weakness (Nothing against vehicles). Which you should have at that point.


Its (almost) universally agrees that Spec Ops flares should be nerfed or changed in some way.

Speaking in 2v2 terms: How much of an advantage is the variety in the soviet army dictate their wins? As opposed to one part of their army being OP.

Possible SOV starts could be:
- Maxims, Mortar, Zis barrage, Flame Engrs.
- Con molotov blobs with Flame Engrs.
- Penal blobs with Flame Engrs.
- Penals with Flame Engrs in half track.
- Penals with snipers.

That is a lot of stuff to try and counter. As opposed to say USF or OKW: - Rifle blobs. Axis is on the backfoot right from the start until they have enough engagements to guess what is coming next. Brits have a similar start: With varieties of Rifles, MGs, or UCs.

Unlike 1v1 and 3v3, in a 2v2 and 4v4 the first few engagments are critical because the points taken will need to be fought for later. In 1v1 and 3v3 the armies will be more mobile since the maps are larger generically, thus, you may be able to simply cap them later or move to another area of the map.

Id say its a very big advantage to be able to have many different possible openings. The Soviets before typically had 1 or 2 strats that were significantly better than everything else and that could be exploited since you can expect what could be coming out. Now the opponent has to prepare for a multitude of possible viable starts that can be played which is much harder to deal with. Similarly, these different opening are better based on the faction you might be facing so Sovs are good against OKW and OST for its multitude of different openings.

For example comparing USF and SOV opening. USF has to start 3 rifles and maybe a mortar every game. This works better against OST due to OSTs weaker early game but its really bad into OKW who does the same thing but is stronger early. The thing is there isn't really anything else you can do as the faction so you get the OKW shits on USF statement.

Soviets on the other hand can go scout car + sniper + penals into OKW which does well into that faction. While this opening is still viable against OST a lot of times Cons into support weapons is better since the mortar and at gun can dislodge mg42s and Cons do better into Grens than they do into Volks. Also AT guns and a longer range snare on cons better counters OSTs fast 222 or HT play. So Soviets don't really have a big weakness into either faction.

Compare that to USF who sucks into OKW or UKF who sucks into OST, Soviets just make more sense due to their flexibility into axis matchups.

Frostpunk added a Endless Mode along with the largest dlc to date, adding

3 new maps
2 new game modes
Randomized Frost lands
New Archive Mechanic
New City Decorations

all of which is free.

They also made a bunch of bug and QoL fixes for the game. They also said that while they tested as much as possible to prevent bugs there are some chances to get bugs in the late game since it is endless.

Im definitely gonna try out the game again, the sandbox mode sounds very fun.

U said: "strong as they are as long as they cost 300mp and arrive latest of all infantries"

the first penals doesnt much later hit the fiel than the first gren. and a 10min obers isnt that much powerfull than other inftantery...hell...ober will even get shredd by double wielding upgraded vet 3 infantery. and even vet 5 obers doesnt shredd IS, rifles and penal like a boxer fight vs a baby...so the 8min more and 120fuel invest whould explain that obers comes so late.

have more excuse?

Vet 2 is where Obers begin to terminate everything so I doubt vet 5 makes them worse.

So, conscript are? let me guess, they clean up the mess after the war ends, no wait, they bring water for the real mainline infantry in the frontlines.

They are both mainline infantry.
