Thread: cons cant uprade mobilize reserves after ptrs upgrade22 Nov 2019, 00:05 AM That's generally how ambush camo works.... What's next? Hull down reduces mobility too much? Kv-2 siege mode shiuld work like blitz? Take a walk buddy. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: cons cant uprade mobilize reserves after ptrs upgrade21 Nov 2019, 22:49 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Nov 2019, 17:46 PMVipper The idea of "tank hunter" commander is to give better tools to deal with armor and providing a tools that is good vs AI is a step in the wrong direction imo. The idea of artillery is flawed even if it was originally intended by MOD team. Actually I like the original "scavenger" ability more. It does give good options to deal with armour, but also gi es a reason for the enemy to run into those options. Mines, ambush camo, camo for AT cons all requires the enemy to come to you, the arty gives good reason for that. Since the Soviet lack fortifications normally I think it's perfectly fine for them to have a slightly turtley commander. There are often outliers for the core theme of the commanders too, defensive tactics for example has a 120mm mortar hardly defensive. Breakthrough has the Jagdtiger, probably the most defensive unit in the game... Furthermore, while the arty DOES do work on infantry, it can also do damage to armour as well. I think it's very much in theme with the commander In: COH2 Bugs

Both ML-20 and B-4 can be used vs soft targets and should not be available in the commander. What is a shame is that Ambush has a rotation penalty to SU-76 and SU-85 and makes the ability unsuited for 2 AT Vehicles. Other than the current meta is about super heavies and all commander that do not provide super heavies are simply not used. The purpose of the arty is to give the enemy a reason to push into your ambush. It originally was going to be the b4 but it was such trash at the time it was changed. I think it could be reverted back to the b4 now though And the ambush is a fun ability. The commander is a fun commander. Even if it's not a top tier commander In: COH2 Bugs

So u get inferior conscripts if u upgrade to ptrs. Thtats stupid. it must be a bug No, you get AT conscripts if you upgrade to prts. That's how that works you pick one or the other. Kinda like how panzer fussies get a 6th man or the AT package. Or grens get the 5th man or the lmg42. Completely intended. In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: cons cant uprade mobilize reserves after ptrs upgrade21 Nov 2019, 00:12 AM That's because mobilize reserves takes up cons slot. Working as intended In: COH2 Bugs
Thread: Redesigning Super heavy Tanks21 Nov 2019, 00:04 AM Jump back to quoted post20 Nov 2019, 23:56 PMVipper This is a bit of the vet suggestions but I would rather skeptical of adding deflection damage to all AT weapons "spaming" T-70 to counter KT should not be a viable tactic. I guess one could add some deflection to some weapon or someone could add chance of a deflection damage on some weapons as a ratio to penetration/armor. So it would break down a bit like this: Critical hit full damage Hit but no penetration, re-roll for a deflection damage equal to weapon damage*penetration/armor Ricochet no damage It would necessarily be for ALL weapons (the deflection damage) just the important ones. Imo lights and generalist mediums wouldn't have any deflection damage for the reasons you listed. Even premium mediums below panther I wouldn't (usf HVAP being an outlier) but at guns, medium TDs (no for su76 or puma) hand at and heavies could all do deflection damage Also I suggested something like a more refined pen system a ways back Basicly if it didn't meet a certain % it would deal no damage (normal medium vs panther front for example) but if the pen greatly exceeded the armour value it would do bonus damage (is-2 vs Kuble kinda thing) granted the OHK in the game have been greatly reduced so idk if the latter is really a good direction anymore.

Thread: Redesigning Super heavy Tanks20 Nov 2019, 23:40 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Nov 2019, 23:20 PMShadowLinkX37 I think deflection damage would go a long way in aiding tank combat overall instead of 100% or 0% damage. That's something I couldn't agree more with In: Lobby
