I believe vet is gained as a percentage of the vehicle's health you deal in damage, so high health doesnt really lead to vet feeding (so instead of getting 25% of the vehicles vet value per shot on say a medium, you get ~11% of the churchills vet value per shot). This is all if I remember correctly. Also, the vanilla churchill* has 1400 hp, so 9 shots to kill.

I would remove the PTRS rifles and adjust the guard mosin to compensate – making it similar to conscripts at close range, but with much less drop off over distance.

This would solidify guards as a long range defensive squad, with a clear vulnerability to vehicles and CQC squads. With no AT damage, only buttoning, they cannot function alone against vehicle play.

So I'm pretty confused by this proposal. You want to make them a long range defensive squad by removing their PTRS (which perform well at long range and require them to be stationary to fire), giving them more of a rifle with insane moving performance, and nerfing said rifles performance? That just makes them more mobile, and a lot weaker at range.

Like, I'm all for making them less of a generalist anti-everything squad, but your proposed solution doesn't really match your proposed goal.

Change the accuracy bonus from to the last man to more RA and ability cooldown. Allowing them to take more risky pushes to get close and do demolition duties is more important than their raw damage output.

To be fair, the glass cannon niche isn't really common in this game. Falls and penals are probably the only infantry units that fit that design. At the very least, having them be glass cannons keeps them unique. Beyond that, RA doesn't really make sense to me for a squad meant to take losses, that would generally just mean that they become durable and end up not taking losses. It can make you put them into situations with more damage being thrown around, but it probably won't make them riskier to use or make them better thematically. High received accuracy means the squad WILL sustain losses, and to the last man means you at least have some incentive to use them in a way that makes them sustain losses. Again, I'm all for making them more of a high loss squad, but I don't think the proposed solution really pushes that direction. Side note, 4 ptrs would probably too much for reasons that other people have brought up.

Reduce the veterancy accuracy bonuses on Cons. The default con rifle being so bad but getting huge vet spikes causes big issues with captured weapons. Instead, accept that a weapon upgrade taking up a slot is just the more sensible way to let conscripts scale.

Cons accuracy bonuses aren't anything special (its penals that have insane acc bonuses). They get 40% which is relatively common. Its their received accuracy bonuses that are irregularly high. There also isn't an issue with captured weapons because (again) cons accuracy bonuses aren't anything special, they have an accuracy penalty on slot weapons, and they only have one weapon slot (iirc). If you wanted to say that cons need weapon upgrades because them relying on vet bonuses necessarily causes issues, you haven't really established that.

I think it might be fun to start experimenting with pgren builds and fast t3 builds. I can imagine osttruppen getting a lot better, for example.

Get a few ostruppen or maybe mg42s, tech bp1, get pgrens for some extra firepower, supply drop for fuel and weapon teams, then fast ostwind. You cant practice or use this build on live because pgrens require t2 though.

And yeah, maybe jaeger infantry or a doc with camo. Camod mg42s, and camod, schrecked pgrens for at going into a t3 rush... a lot of possibilities.

For the live patch, theres always the captain price stormtrooper spam build.

The UC changes are not meant to help OKW. OKW has the T0 Raketten and good blob potential to deal with it. They are mostly meant to help Ostheer, who don't stand a chance against a well microd UC until they can finally get a 222 out.



It's OKW.

I disagree. It helps both, and helps okw more because they struggle woth the UC more. Some pushed the changes to help ost, and some because they help okw, but yeah, they help both.

Also, okw vs okm is semantics.

I am pretty sure about the K98 mechanic.

I am trusting patch notes about the LMG42 mechanics.


The whole thing is unnecessary complicated. After losing some model it is better from DPS perspective to move out of cover so that the LMG does not suffer a penalty...

(Imo there should be no LMG upgrade to begin with.)

My impression was that it was a flat 50% penalty out of cover for the lmg42 (so the same penalty as their kars), which got reduced to a flat 25% penalty in cover (so 75% of a gren lmg42 in cover). Not based on any testing, just my impression from the wording.
