Thread: WW2 Daily Pic22 Dec 2014, 17:20 PM Today In History: US Commander in Bastogne : “NUTS” to Surrender In the town of Bastogne the 101st Airborne Division was dug in fighting a determined stand against an increasingly frustrated German spearhead. The Americans had identified elements of four Panzer Divisions, two Infantry Divisions and two Parachute Divisions amongst the forces surrounding them. December 22 1944 To the U.S.A. Commander of the encircled town of Bastogne The fortune of war is changing. This time the the U.S.A. forces in and near Bastogne have been encircled by strong German armored units. There is only one possibility to save the encircled U.S.A. Troops from total annihilation: that is the honorable surrender of the encircled town. In order to think it over a term of two hours will be granted beginning with the presentation of this note. If this proposal should be rejected the German Artillery Corps and six heavy A.A. Battalions are ready to annihilate the USA troops in and near Bastogne. The order for firing will be given immediately after this two hour’s term. All the serious civilian losses caused by this Artillery fire would not correspond with the well known American humanity. ~ The German Commander. The reply was not long in coming 22 December 1944 To the German Commander NUTS! ~ The American Commander Photo Caption: On Dec. 22, 1944 the 2nd Bn, 504 Parachute Infantry Reg. is crossing the village of Rahier as to relieve the 1st Bn in Cheneux after the battle.

Thread: What is the worst unit in the game !? [DEC 14]22 Dec 2014, 13:27 PM Jump back to quoted post21 Dec 2014, 15:43 PMCruzz *Soviet: AI Partisans (lose to HMG squad members at times, bad commander required)* So you're saying AI Partisans are worse than Irregulars. You do realize AI Partisans are better dmg wise and can spawn out of buildings behind enemy squads? Although their reinforce rate is worse than Irregulars (26 vs 21) and they don't have that special 45 muni grenade, at least they have a stronger role in combat situations where as lmg irregulars can make lmg ostruppen look like Obers. Plus I think the Partisan commander has some uses, like free maphax, somewhat crucial intel, mark target, and AT partisans that can finish off pesky tank retreats on most maps. Although I will admit that AI partisans win by a very small margin over Irregulars imo. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Partisans are utter garbage21 Dec 2014, 01:08 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Dec 2014, 00:50 AMSexualSalamanca Partisans and Irregulars are pretty awful. Seriously wish Relic would look at the Partisan tactics especially because that commander has so much wasted potential. Reserve would be pretty meh even if the irregulars were up to snuff. But if the partisans were no worse than cons , PT could be a more workable and maybe even solid commander for the right styles of play. Irregulars are weaker than partysans, but at least the Partysan doc is actually pretty sufficient for most 1v1 to 2v2 situations, whereas Reserve doc has some great abilities but the main point of the doc is Irregulars, if Irregulars are unreliable then you can just choose another doc with similar abilities. The problem with Partysans is three things, their late game survival rate, vet system, and their reinforce cost. They cost 26 mp to reinforce whereas cons are only 20, in which cons have a better vet system and higher army value. I can understand that since they're a call-in and can be brought out of buildings a higher reinforce rate is needed, but honestly I believe it should be set to 22-23 since they're only a weaker 4 man infantry squad. Not like they're falls or jaegers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Partisans are utter garbage21 Dec 2014, 00:42 AM Jump back to quoted post21 Dec 2014, 00:27 AMEnkidu Any one use the irregulars doctrine much? Irregulars are strange in that they're partisans that come with garunteed lmgs, can't spawn from buildings, get regular nades, and at nades when researched. *Their long range dps is actually not terrible for a 190mp squad that doesn't cost munis to upgrade*. They're no obers of course but they're fun for a change of pace. I just wish rapid conscription worked on them as they die so easily. All in all the commander sucks but it's fun to use some times. You can't be serious? Irregulars are awful at any range really, and if they get the DP-28s their DPS is actually downgraded. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Partisans are utter garbage20 Dec 2014, 17:13 PM I don't think they're that bad......I mean, you could try and use Ostruppen or Irregulars, then comeback and say Partysans are useless Here's an example replay of them saving my arse: 4 VS VonIvan Succubus - Victoria Party with Partysans by: VonIvan map: Kholodny Ferma 2 - In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Party with Partysans16 Dec 2014, 17:22 PM Testing some un-meta strats. In the beginning of this game I got distracted by Gordon Ramsey's beautiful voice, causing some ugly squad losses, but after shutting his trap I brought myself back to composure. Was a fun game to watch, dem sneaky shreks. GG WP. In: Replays
