Thread: Stationary PANTHER26 Nov 2019, 17:41 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Nov 2019, 13:42 PMSander93 Just to clarify, I ignore a coaxial with max 7 dps that is completely negligible, because everyone would except for those trying to be remarkably nitpicky. The Panther's total of up to 25 AI DPS on the other hand is a significant enough factor to mention in comparisons as it can reliably be used to chase away lone squads. May I suggested you choose your wording more carefully then because "absolutely no anti-infantry" and "negligible" are two completely different things. In addition if the coaxial benefits (and I have not checked) from commander and the vet bonus it does not become that negligible anymore. Panther total DPS might be close to 25 but only in an ideal scenario and if it "chasing" a "lone" squad it would be closer to 12.5 due to moving penalties. In the end of the day if the "superiority" of the Panther comes from it's MGs, I suggest giving the FF/M36/SU-85 of one hull and one coaxial (where applicable) and rising their fuel price to 180 FU. Then Allied TD would come with the same MGs (pintle is an upgrade that cost MU) would have better gun then the Panther and the Panther would have more tenacity. In plain words the performance of Panther's Mgs does not justify the superior in cost efficiency of allied TDs enjoy. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Most effective Commander ammunition-only call-in abilities?26 Nov 2019, 17:31 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Nov 2019, 13:26 PMastonhodge I left it as an open-ended question so you could explain the choice/s Like 'I use the Anti-tank Overwatch Soviet ability because its lethal and un-counterable...' for example. It would be nice to see what the top players/ well experienced people are using in 1v1...4v4 games. Different abilities are cost efficient vs howitzer, vs OKW truck, vs Support weapon and vs Tanks.

Thread: UKF absent from tourney play again26 Nov 2019, 13:02 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Nov 2019, 12:53 PMSupport Sapper You forgot the "it cant move" part in my reply ... Read post 108: This is what you wrote and it simply false: "Dose it cost nearly double the price of a normal mortar and cant move? Yes." It about x146% the cost and that is not nearly 200% (actually is less than one and half) and yes it can not move. So it the answer to the questions is either a "No" and "Yes" or a single "NO" since not both criteria are met. Jump back to quoted post26 Nov 2019, 12:53 PMSupport Sapper and i not event say that the mortar pit can beat 2 other mortars, i say it can beat ONE. The post you replied to does not quote you so I can not see how you come to the conclusion that I have posted that "according to Heavy Sapper a mortar pit can counter 2 mortars". I never attributed such a claim to you. In: COH2 Balance

So nothing..., a mortar pit simply does not have a cost that is "nearly" double of a single mortar. I am simply pointing out that the claim in false. I see little reason why a mortar pit should be able to beat 2 mortar on it own. In: COH2 Balance

Sweet TD stats like 640 hitpoints, 160 armor, absolutely no anti-infantry, bad mobility and turret rotation in the case of the Firefly, and being a casemate in case of the SU-85? Don't just cherry pick. They have plenty of disadvantages compared to the Panther. Just to clarify FF does have a coaxial with a DPS similar to that of the Panther. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Stationary PANTHER26 Nov 2019, 12:28 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Nov 2019, 08:07 AMSander93 There is not a single scenario, except incredibly bad player micro, in which that is true. The Jackson needs 33,25s from the first shot to kill a Panther, not counting misses and bounces. A Panther needs 19,95s from the first shot to kill a Jackson, not counting misses. They have identical reload, while the Panther has 50% more health, so go do the math. The 10 range advantage is barely enough for one free shot, and even then, the Panther has enough hitpoints to take the one hit and still out-DPM the Jackson afterwards. Not counting misses is gross over simplification especially if the units are moving. I am not saying that a M36 kill a Panther, but a M36 is enough to zone a Panther. They have the same role but M36 can counter a Tiger or KT more cost efficiently than a Panther can counter a Pershing or IS-2. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Stationary PANTHER26 Nov 2019, 12:25 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Nov 2019, 23:16 PMMr Carmine Yes genius allied tanks are cheaper because allied tanks are not better. You need 2 minimum to take on a panther if for some reason you lack other at. No matter how you try and spin that its a fact that pound for pound the panther is a better tank hence it costs more. ... 1) Panther is not a main battle tank because it has the gun of TD 2) If 2 mediums can take a Panther they are a better investment since they come earlier and they can kill a more expensive unit at that cost of cheaper unit.
