The OKW opel blitz is pretty good, but it is certainly not overpowered. It has paper armor and delays teching for the OKW player, and in return you get a mobile battlegroup headquarters.
I think a name change is the best direction. The whole commander has a very ambush theme with immobilization mines and camo and sprint but I got no names
Maybe Defence in depth / Elastic defense doctrine would fit.
Definition from WIKI:
Defence in depth / Elastic defense is a military strategy that seeks to delay rather than prevent the advance of an attacker, buying time and causing additional casualties by yielding space.
Thx but i did not mention it because i wanted to claim it as "my idea". I just think it would help the 251 so much if it would be cheaper in the base version. The Opel Blitz who basically does the same like the 251 cost also only 20 fuel. Add the additional 10 fuel on the flamer upgrade as suggested and we would not have to face ANY timing issues.
Maybe the mod team could explain why it does not want to go in this direction.
How lowering the price of the 251 HT and making the upgrade to FHT cost manpower and fuel. That can help the balance both unit better.
+1 Thats exactly what i suggested 2 weeks before.
Imo its a no brainer- you would buff the base version of the 251 without making the flamethrower version stronger.
Breakthrough will be finally a real strong commander in team games after the changes to the JT.
Wehr players in mixed axis teams will also be happy because they not always have to use Jaeger Armor:
The commander does scream "storm doctrine" but name only is the issue, the collection of abilities are very strong and versatile
Well, i never said the abilities would be bad. It just bothers me if abilities dont fit to the theme.
But if players want to safe the status quo in terms of abilities - and thats fine to me - can we at least rename the commander and change the description text accordingly?
