Thread: E8 is still trash5 Jul 2021, 16:34 PM Jump back to quoted post5 Jul 2021, 08:49 AMjagd wölfe I think that the Easy 8 performs quite decently for its price. Especially by vet 2 it really becomes a "mini panther" with focused gunnery in my opinion. So far I have been using both the new 76mm and the Easy 8 and somehow had even better results with the Easy 8 in countering Infantry. Maybe the commander upgrade has an hidden nerf to the aoe to balance it our, because in this thread there's people that could swear the opposite of what I witnessed On a side note. The M3 halftrack slot could be bundled with Cavalry Riflemen to make the commander per se more appealing. Cavalry Riflemen are in no other commander than Mechanized company. They synergize well with the M3 and they are still "riflemen" so Rifle Company is still the most fitting commander. Mechanized has it bundled with the WC51 and I also hate this inconsistency. Or the M3 could be bundled in the Easy 8 slot as "Armored support group" to make room for Cavalry rifles I have been saying that for a while, fire up would have great synergy with calvary rifleman.

Thread: Something should be done about the dual atgun meta2 Jul 2021, 20:58 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Jul 2021, 19:03 PMKatitof You think that ATG will just sit there while shells land around? I don't know if you are fully aware of it, but moving ATGs can't shoot. Make it move, then move in with what you've got. But yeah, I do agree, mortars are pretty lolzworthy in coh2, given how they were responsible for most killed and wounded in ww2, even outshining the ever present artillery. It was actually a legitimate question, I don't know how to use the cheat mod/tester. It would be nice to know how long it takes with vision, no vision when the unit stays still. Maybe an increased target size vs small indirect fire so that it doesn't necessarily wipe but takes consistent damage so the user has to think about retreating and healing. I agree that mortars are a joke mostly, hell maybe even rate of fire can be increased for all so that it isn't an afterthought. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: T3485 vs OKW2 Jul 2021, 20:50 PM I went T1 advanced warfare. Using 3485 killed 2 tigers, 1 king tiger, and 2 P4J with one of the P4j captured. Comeback on the back of the almighty Katy, down ~ 350 to 18 points and ended up winning. In: Replays
Thread: Replace m8 Scott with the calliope.2 Jul 2021, 18:06 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Jul 2021, 17:25 PMAshmole Thanks for an actual response and not a stupid meme post. I think you could apply this logic to any faction with non-doc artillery though. Panthers with stukas/panzerwerfers, t34s with katyushas, etc. I don't see how giving the US an expensive non-doc artillery unit makes them OP. If the calliope is what makes this not possible, what about replacing the Scott with another unit (maybe the 105mm sherman) and making it a CP call in? I think the main issue would be the Jackson zoning out the Panther and the Calliope could actually destroy both stuka and panzerwerfer in a lucky barrage due to area and volume of rockets. It would require a lot of rebalancing. I have been playing a lot of soviets lately and the t3476 is straight trash, that is not going to stop a tank kiting the Katy. The stock mines, conscript snare, penal at satchel are what would make people think twice. I would like the 105 to be stock, the Vet1 ability would allow for more consistent bunker busting compared to the Scott. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Replace m8 Scott with the calliope.2 Jul 2021, 16:59 PM It will never happen, USF is my favorite faction and it would make USF OP. I would say right now Rifle Company is USF weakest commander and it would be difficult to beat with Calliope as part of the stock lineup. A player could literally mine the map, call out E8 to brawl and destroy enemy units with the cali especially combined with White phos smoke. Same would happen with Pershing and possible armor company due to ass eng laying down mines. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Something should be done about the dual atgun meta2 Jul 2021, 16:19 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Jul 2021, 15:21 PMVipper I am not sure I follow. Why would one build a mortar to counter and ATG that has not been build yet? Unless OKW has also build an ATG as one his first 2 units which probably means he does not how to play... If we are talking about 2 ATG on the field we are talking way past the early game. Sorry, I wasn't clear. The army OP was talking about was 2 mg 2 at, and Katitof brought up mortars, you are right building a mortar that early for the first OKW mg would be to early since it will not come out until after 1st truck but what about against OST? You will not get reliable wipes to prevent the build which is understandable. He is saying to build mortar to counter the build which is pretty unreliable for all factions. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: SMG Penal clown car vs OKW2 Jul 2021, 15:20 PM If you look at my posts my favorite unit is SMG Penal since no one seems to like it or use it. This game I used clown car to decap until CP2 and ran around the map with SMG penal clown car. In: Replays
Thread: Game vs fellow forum member2 Jul 2021, 15:17 PM I lost but it was pretty fun, had good early and mid game but my late game micro let me down once again. GG ethereal In: Replays
Thread: Something should be done about the dual atgun meta2 Jul 2021, 14:30 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Jul 2021, 13:51 PMVipper And OKW have no mortar... USF mortar is one of the most cost efficient mortar out there with not tech cost and lower price so pls avoid claim for "massive advantage in MP"... The advantage would not come from unit cost, once more the OP is talking about specific army composition. We know it is coming so we are attempting to counter it. So when do you build the mortar, it can't be one of your first 2 units because the OKW player will notice the infantry advantage and push hard with opening units which will lead to the massive advantage in MP I was talking about. At no point was I describing the unit itself which is cheap and available. Is it after the normal build of 3 infantry into LT/CPT, which is about the time the 1st mg comes out? It is the natural counter, so at this point it comes down to if you get lucky with hits or not, unless the mg is in a building which helps. Any later than this and the pak howi is available if you went CPT which has WP shells which is probably the best way to actually break a turtle due to damage and smoke in one. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Something should be done about the dual atgun meta2 Jul 2021, 11:43 AM Jump back to quoted post2 Jul 2021, 07:01 AMKatitof Did they removed mortar from T1? I wonder what the TTK is for 1 mortar to kill 1 at gun, then TTK in fog of war, the TTK using the army composition discussed which was 2 at and 2mg. Pretty much you will have to make 2 with varying levels of success. If it is USF vs OKW that is a massive advantage in MP which will lead to steam rolling since USF mortar has most scatter.
