My favourite unit in COH, not having much luck with it in COH2 though..
Did see a wiki description suggesting it was made from chicken wire covered with baking foil, which seems aptly weak.
Anyone found a good use for them in the early or late game? 90 munitions is an awful lot for the flame variant, the HMG doesn't seem to be at all potent ( loved AP rounds in COH1), units can't shoot out of it and even the self repair only comes at vet1. Can't say I've had too many survive to vet1.
Thing is the self repair allowed the Brits to offload some early manpower problems into munitions, and use this for much needed map control in the early game of COH. COH2 seems to keep the manpower problems whilst giving the Axis a dream wishlist of nerfs. |
