Thread: Lightning War or Elite Troops?5 Feb 2020, 20:51 PM Elite troops has ninja panzer ability witch is one off the best abilities in the game period. I'd say go with elite troops, they both have g43's the JU87 will get countered(no kidding is2's pintle can take that thing out) so no point in relying on that. I prefer the regular tiger over that ACE(god awefull camo on that thing) but that your call. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Swapping the P4 with the werfer5 Feb 2020, 17:26 PM Also could the Strat Reserve Doc's P4 be made by just Teching T4/placing. That would help a bit. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Swapping the P4 with the werfer5 Feb 2020, 17:14 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Feb 2020, 16:00 PMLago Relic did. This is how OST's tech structure was originally organised. It's why unlocking T3 results in the voice line "medium armour and rocket artillery is now available." You could restructure OST's tech to work like this, but it would be more than simply swapping the units. You'd need to rework all the teching costs so T4 comes out earlier. You'd then have to completely rebalance T3 around its own earlier timing. That'd mean reverting the Ostwind to its previous state and probably toning down the StuG too. It'd be a major undertaking in fixing what isn't really broken. Why would T3 come earlier, T4 would come earlier(technically). But going from T3 then to a T4 would be dangerous. Simply put place T3 have no workhorse but have stug + pstwind with werfer for support, or wait a little bit for P4 but don't have cheap follow ups. Ost T3 would kinda work like Sov T4 instead weaker/OKW mechanized but stronger. Ost T4 would now be like the schwere but have slightly weaker units and siege tool rather than a TD - the ober's(but pg's kinda fill that hole). as T3 & T4 is now, T3: 90f + 15f T4: 90f + 25f + 25f we could make it, T3: 50f + 55f T4: 50f + 25f + 40f we could also make the Panther and Brum cost more like 15 fuel each. So Panther would be 200f and Brum would be 170f. So A panzer 4 rush would go up by 10 fuel and Panther/Brum rush would be come earlier by 15 fuel(maybe horribly wrong with my math here).

Thread: Swapping the P4 with the werfer5 Feb 2020, 13:44 PM Think about it. The reason t4 for why ost is so punishing in 1v1 is simply because t4 units are highly specialized , at their timing highly easy to be taken out, are very expensive and takes a lot of pop cap. Simply rushing to T4 or even skipping T3 then into T4 doesn't pay off very well, because of their specialization and cost (not to mention pop) getting anything after rushing T4/skipping seems pointless cus there is nothing to it. Replacing the P4 with the werfer (and also some cost and timing changes) does 2 things, 1. Gives a safety net unit in T4(the P4) 2. Makes T3 a bit more coherent cheap(ish) units who are easy to take out by their counters but are good at their jobs(wefer great for wiping weapons crew dies in 1 shot, stug great at killing tanks but worthless vs inf, Ostwind murders inf can't really do anything to meds). (bonus)3. Also this adds an element of risk v reward to T3 and T4. new T3 units are strong and cost effective but can be hard countered with the catch they are easy to replace, T4 units remain the same but with now the P4 there is some thing you can do build while still having easy options for Brum/Panthers. This is similar to the T3 and T4 design of coh1. Cheap highly cost effective specialized units at t3 who can be hard countered. T4 works horse units with more powerful specialized units who are not as week to the things that counter them. Also add somrthing like an Ober Lieutenant squad with force retreat/flare/repair or construction supervision or something. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: G43's are simply OP5 Feb 2020, 08:17 AM Jump back to quoted post5 Feb 2020, 08:10 AMGoldenpunch G43 gives some power greens to fight aganist penals and rifleman.So g43 is balanced and good. No No No... allies are suppose to win. Any thing that makes ost ok is unbalanced and makes them OP. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Tank Destroyer Poll4 Feb 2020, 17:32 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Feb 2020, 17:07 PMCreativeName I can only talk about 1v1 and 2v2. Depends somewhat on your opponents tech... jackson is pretty expensive and cant spot for itself, you could set up a dive with double stugs (works against lieut tech without at guns) or lure it into an at gun and follow up with panther/stug. Considering their cost, if you can trade with any medium tank for a jackson you will come out ahead. The exception would be the okw p4. Also shrek squads can help deal with them even tho a good player wont let his jackson die to it, you still can keep it away while your tank deal with their inf. Or/and cover your tanks with double at guns On open maps id say its rather obvious Ele. you need to cover it obviously with at and mines Dont get me wrong, the jackson is very strong and a well microed jackson or two is a nightmare to deal with but i dont think its impossible or that the jackson is OP. but thats only my opinion of course This seems like general tactics to deal with Jackson's rather than exploiting Jackson's weakness's but still will keep it in mind.

Thread: StuG and SU-764 Feb 2020, 16:51 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Feb 2020, 16:17 PMVipper I would rather see a "camouflage ambush" ability on stug that would allow it to fire a couple of round before it has to retreat. Ability: Unit become stationary, gains 20-30 rotation and 10-15 sight range. As for the SU-76 it does need a dual shell in my opinion. It problem is the performance of the unit but the better options. Nerfing the other option in specific areas will create room for the unit. Why would you give the stug such a bad ability.
