Why is the go-to answer grens? 5man pios would be far more subtle. Endgame repair bump is badly needed as well. |

Am I the only one who thinks this would be horribly unbalanced?
Volley grenades from any garrison or cover, even over shotblockers....
Fighting positions are already incredibly strong when put up. To take that ability anywhere for a small muni cost is nuts imo....

Woops |
Because two are already very effective most of the time. In fact , I always see massed stuka in team game and so do I when playing OKW. It's not like katyusha and priest is nearly useless at least you have a pair.
I disagree, I believe the Stuka is far more situational. It is used to much more tactically to clear a certain objective. It is far more effective in this role than as a general artillery against anything. If you amass enough Kats and calis you can directly assault armor up to an above the king tiger. |

Hector, you really are blowing a bit of smoke.
There is a reason in team games you NEVER see massed stuka. Maayyybbeeee 2.
Kat, cali, priest, matress.... there is a reason noone stops at 1-2.

Have to disagree.
I tested it today again in custom
No other indrect fire was there.
Just satchel charge vs m42, mg34 or wehrmachtmortar.
--> full kill+ destroyed everytime. Tried it 6 times
Well i was stealing 42s with penals/sachels last night so not sure how that works. Maybe near aoe vs mid or something. |

I have found that a 100% full heath + armour mg/mortar/ect will survive decewed with like 10% armour left.
So if a mg takes a direct mortar/tank/at round then gets sacheled, it will be decrewed and destroyed. |

Large fan of most changes for v1.3. In particular the ratken projectile fix is a critical.
However, i feel this trend to continually move the p5 toward a more generalist tank role is wrong. The p4 serves this very well while staying fragile enough to be easily countered. We should be scaling the AI back in favor of AT, absolutely noone buys a p5 for AI. no one. |
Which is why its harder to use. I preferred it being an actual skill shot, but currently its as close as can be while still actually working. You need to get closer and stay longer AND pay more, i think that is more than fair.
Ehhh
While it may have fallen out of favor I still use Guard Motor for the Guard AT and the button combined with penal sachel is frankly easy to use. |
again, "i made a mistake and the enemy hurt me" isnt a solid basis for balance
its like "i clicked beside the cover not behind it and my guys died, can you make enemy deal less damage"
or "i drove over a mine and the enemy happened to have an AT gun there and i was heavily punished"
you are supposed to support your armour in this game (dont let the usf and brit players fool you) the enemy having units ambushing and outflanking you is not a balance issue- its actually a feature
additionally, what is it for cost?
compare the molitov to the flame nade
for a 20mu difference you get: better range, and faster animation with NO drawbacks compared to the molitov EXCEPT the higher cost
for a 20mu difference on the satchel and AT nade/faust you get: more damage at the cost of less range, longer animation, ability to ACTUALLY dodge it (instead of it following you as long as they clicked) , chance of collateral damage possibly wiping your squad AND a higher cost
its not like penals can sprint at you like cons can, and even then that only works because of the homing mode...
While you make some good points. I would add that while the vast majority, If I am not wrong EVERY SINGLE OTHER, snare has breathing room in regards to not being an instant engine cripple. It often takes 2 snares to bind a full health tank while the penal satchel takes out 1/4 of a full health tanks HP. HUGE game changer when landed. |
