Thread: An Old Schooler's Rant and Observations29 Jun 2020, 17:14 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jun 2020, 17:10 PMelchino7 I stand corrected. Well it is not that easy to remember how things were six year ago...especially after so many patches in between. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: An Old Schooler's Rant and Observations29 Jun 2020, 17:04 PM According to patch notes James Hale is correct about not being able to fire on the move. Osttruppen Cost from 120 MP to 200 MP Population from 3 to 5 Hit points from 48 to 80 Can now shoot on the move Bonus accuracy in cover from 2 to 1.75 In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Grens changes29 Jun 2020, 14:54 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jun 2020, 14:12 PMthedarkarmadillo BUT BP1 also grants access to pgrens and progresses tech as well as unlocking lmg42s, so it's not a flat cost for the rifle nades and can't easily be used to accurately inflate the cost of grens. At most we can attribute 1/4 the cost of BP1 into nades, so 25mp and 10 fuel, still putting them under for cost compared to cons. However I do not believe that ost teching should be considered into the cost of grens as it will be done and paid regardless if you use 5 gren squads or none, in contrast to conscript upgrades that serve no purpose if you don't build any cons and could be deemed cost ineffecient if you only build 1 or even 2. I don't think it's fair to include the mobilize reserves unlock cost as it's an opportunity cost that can be mitigated via a full tech, so paying for it is a choice that shouldn't be included in considering their "price" I have simply provided stats and made the observation that conscript "spam" is more viable than gren "spam". Feel free to include what ever cost you like but that will not make grenadiers cheaper then conscripts or more viable to spam. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Brits changes29 Jun 2020, 13:30 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Jun 2020, 13:28 PMSgtJonson Uhm. short question and i think it fits here quite well: The cover bonues they get. Do they get it on the move too? Late game example: the map is full of explosion craters. Would tommies fight more efficently then? yes In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Grens changes29 Jun 2020, 13:19 PM Conscript and Grenadier have the same cost. They both cost 240. Conscripts is T0 units and grenadiers are T1 unit. Soviet have the option to tech: molotovs with a cost 80/10 At grenades with a cost 125/10 and after that mobilize reserves with a cost 100/20 (or get it for free with t4). Grenadier: require t1 with a cost 80/10 require BP1 with a cost rifle-grenades with 100/40 and they need T4 for reinforcement discount. No matter how one wants to look at things conscript "spam" is more viable than grenadier "spam". In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Should doctrinal units/upgrades be superior?27 Jun 2020, 12:01 PM This is not a yes or no questions. Doctrinal abilities or units simply need a reason to be used. If the offer something that already exist it makes sense that it would be superior else none would use it. If they offer something different it does need to superior to stock options since it could still be useful. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: German Infantry Doctrine27 Jun 2020, 09:45 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2020, 08:47 AMKatitof Pls go back to that dream world of yours. No, you have not, but you seem to be under the impression there is a logical reason why this cheapest mainline with no side costs and access to all support units at once should not be stomped by more expensive squads with up to twice muni invested into them and up to additional 250mp/30-50fu. If you want to play with mainline infantry spam, there are other factions for it and even a doctrine for ost. Pls stick to what I have actually posted and stop responding to things I have not posted.

Thread: German Infantry Doctrine27 Jun 2020, 08:42 AM Jump back to quoted post27 Jun 2020, 08:40 AMKatitof The only infantry grens are supposed to stand up to are cons and that match up works perfectly fine. You will NEVER in any world where balance is a real actual thing have grens stand up to tommies or rifles with upgrades because of sheer, massive investment difference. PLS do not quote me if what I you are going to post is irrelevant to what you are quoting. I have not suggested that Grenadiers should beat riflemen or IS one on one. In: COH2 Gameplay
