Thread: British Base Howi's30 Dec 2015, 12:18 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Dec 2015, 10:42 AMBlalord The vision buff is quite good to have on one IS the vision is nice but it doesn't solve the british lack of artillery. Staring the enemy to death doesn't really work. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll: Should OKW Volks have their shrecks removed/modified?30 Dec 2015, 12:06 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Dec 2015, 11:51 AMBlalord Where is the difficulty having a RE sweeper ? Hector's scenario give roughly the same resources to both side, except the USF doesn't get a minesweeper, while the OKW does. a Rear echolen with sweeper will cost extra resources. In: COH2 Balance

In 1v1 you can maximally make 2 pios without bleeding like pig. You will have one with shreck and one with sweeper. So your mid game composition will be something like: luchs , 3 volks , one stg squad - stumrpio and one shreck squad And USA will have 2 rifles with 1 bar, cpatain with 2 zoooks , 2 normal riflemen and a stuart. Guess whitch one of them will win ? (rifles will roflstomp your infantry and stuart + captain will hold against shrecks rather easily). I think we both play different gamemodes and that is the problem I assume the USF are just going to be sweeping out mines with the force? If you're going to force the OKW to get two sturm for at least one sweeper, then the USF should be forced to get at least one Rear Echelon for a sweeper as well. Jump back to quoted post30 Dec 2015, 11:35 AMBlalord USF will plant even more mines when he see that you went double Pio with Shrek, USF infantries will still rape OKW infantry, Double Stuart into Pershing works very well OKW is the faction with easier access to mines. The OKW doesn't need to worry about mines against USF unless they see a m20. Assuming we are going with Hector's scenario, the USF are not going to have mines. If we are taking doctrine into account, we can probably swap out a few volks for panzerfusilier. In: COH2 Balance

Still, I maintain that I personally would find it harder to deal with spammable snares than 90 muni at upgrades, especially when the infantry carrying those upgrades are commonly grouped up and susceptible to suppression and indirect. As for the faust missing if outside 30 range, I don't think so. I've seen some crazy long range fausts. conscript, grenadier, rifleman, and ostruppen all have at snare. The game have already proven that at snare spam is not a problem. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: British mortar pit tweak30 Dec 2015, 03:41 AM buffing the mortar pit isn't really going to help the british. They need a mobile artillery not a mortar pit. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll: Should OKW Volks have their shrecks removed/modified?30 Dec 2015, 03:36 AM Jump back to quoted post30 Dec 2015, 01:35 AMdOPEnEWhAIRCUT not according to this site: faust max range = 30 http://www.coh2-stats.com/ballistic_weapons/panzerfaust_atw_mp Schreck max range = 35 http://www.coh2-stats.com/ballistic_weapons/panzerschreck_atw_mp Good luck hitting a properly micro'd tank at max range with a schreck. If proposed changes were made, OKW would have an easier time floating munis for fausts than Ost currently does. weapon range != ability range. the faust ability itself will only activate on a target inside a 18 meter radius. IIRC the weapon range affect how far the projectile will track. The faust will "miss" if the target vehicle can leave the weapon range before the faust fire. However, the vehicle needs to be within 18 meter of the grenadier first. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Target weak point nerf.30 Dec 2015, 01:12 AM Jump back to quoted post29 Dec 2015, 13:57 PMButcher No. The StuG Vet1 was effectively nerfed out of the game already. No need to do this with the Pak also. Not going to waste ammo on a gun jam. the gun disable is awesome. the stug can 1v1 most tank in the game if it get the ability to hit. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poll: Should OKW Volks have their shrecks removed/modified?30 Dec 2015, 00:28 AM The effective range of a schreck however is comparable to a faust. Allied players don't typically need to worry about Gren fausts because Ost has so many other munition costing abilities faust range = 18 meters schreck range = 35 meters. and most wehr player will keep at least 30-60 mu on hand incase of vehicle.

Thread: Heavy Tank Use29 Dec 2015, 22:47 PM Jump back to quoted post28 Dec 2015, 19:59 PMHans G. Schultz but it still would be nice to still have have a final heavy tank phase where there could be multiple heavies on the field for those occasional 1 hour or longer games. except the US pershing is DLC and the IS2/tiger are still doctrinal. Wanting a "heavy tank" phase is ridiculous when the OKW is the only faction out of 5 to have that phase by default. and stop it with the inconsequential history debate. In: COH2 Gameplay
