Thread: Universal Carrier vs Volks23 Sep 2018, 17:38 PM Jump back to quoted post23 Sep 2018, 15:25 PMmr.matrix300 Then why it shouldn't be able to finish off/kill infantry units? It can if the opposing player doesn't understand the retreat function. It deals steady damage, not burst damage. It's not a squadwiper. Even if you do not completely wipe the enemy squad,you will bleed it and over the time you will cause more damage to him than your UC is worth. That's literally the whole point of anti-infantry vehicles. The problem is not getting a raketen but how to deal with UC or Clown car during the time where your raketen is in building process and travels to the front. Play tighter. It can 1v1 your infantry squads. It can't 3v1 your infantry squads. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Universal Carrier vs Volks23 Sep 2018, 10:08 AM Jump back to quoted post23 Sep 2018, 09:13 AMmr.matrix300 Uc was just an example but nevertheless the UC can be used to kill infantry, just as raketen can be used to kill LVs. And as you pointed out you have to fall back, and thus losing map control, when you don't want to get your troops wiped(or bleed too much). You've lost me. Of course the UC can kill infantry. That's literally what it's for. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Universal Carrier vs Volks23 Sep 2018, 08:24 AM Jump back to quoted post22 Sep 2018, 23:19 PMmr.matrix300 I got what Katitof wanted to say. I only wanted to point out that the same works the other way around too. You loose a unit to UC, enemy is a squad up. If a Universal Carrier is wiping your squads you're leaving it far too late to retreat. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Opel Blitz- why?22 Sep 2018, 20:47 PM I'd like to understand its mechanical function in the game. It's a supply cache on wheels. It serves the same function, but you can move it around. That's pretty much it. A fun thing in one commander. In: Lobby
Thread: Universal Carrier vs Volks22 Sep 2018, 20:41 PM Jump back to quoted post22 Sep 2018, 20:06 PMmr.matrix300 I'll try to explain Katitof's point in another way. Say the UKF player has a choice between two builds. » 3x Infantry Section, 1x Universal Carrier » 4x Infantry Section The OKW player also has a choice between two builds. » 1x Sturmpioneer, 3x Volksgrenadier » 1x Sturmpioneer, 2x Volksgrenadier, 1x Raketenwerfer If you build the Raketenwerfer and blow up their UC, you're a squad up. They've got three squads, you've got three squads and a Raketenwerfer. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Flame Halftrack18 Sep 2018, 19:12 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Sep 2018, 16:27 PMKatitof A support... like... from flame halftruck for example? I'd say a Grenadier squad to faust any light vehicle that dives for the AT gun. Part of the advantage of light vehicles is how quickly they can reposition around the map. If the Flame HT is reliant on a Pak to defend it then it has to stick where it can retreat to the Pak. That's part of why the Puma's such a good pairing for the 251: the Puma can keep up with it.

Thread: Flame Halftrack18 Sep 2018, 15:50 PM Jump back to quoted post18 Sep 2018, 15:09 PM\|GB\| The Hooligan486 Flame halftrack also works with at gun btw, so the removing puma thing doesnt make flame halftrack worse (imo). Flame halftrack for me just feels less micro while having a very big impact. AT guns are slow and require careful positioning and support to avoid being flanked. Pumas can keep up with the 251.

Thread: Flame Halftrack18 Sep 2018, 10:53 AM Jump back to quoted post18 Sep 2018, 10:49 AMvasa1719 You dont say, but i ask, you logic, that 251 deley pac/shreks i say that no reason to deley this units, coz only USF have unit in FHT timing. Why you need pac at 5 min if t-70 come good if in 7 close to 8 ? One last try. A 222 or a Panzerschreck squad counters UCs, Clown Cars and M20s. A 251 does not. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Flame Halftrack17 Sep 2018, 20:10 PM Jump back to quoted post17 Sep 2018, 19:45 PMvasa1719 How UK counter HT ? AEC faster then HT ? Really ? So you see AEC and build HT ? M3 need ptrs to counter HT inside. m20 come faster, but counter possibility are low. You've got this backwards. I never said anything countering the Flame HT. I'm talking opportunity cost here. The 251 is not a super-light vehicle counter. The 222 is. If you build the Flame HT, you didn't spend those resources and build time on a 222 or a Panzershreck squad. That means you don't have a 222 or PGren squad yet. That means enemy light vehicles are also more effective because you have few tools to counter them. In: COH2 Balance
