Thread: Lend-Lease unit spotted17 May 2014, 02:01 AM To be fair, this was certainly a worthy necro, it actually has content. And it's actually something we didn't know before despite being right in our faces! Also I looked up the vehicle, the Dodge WC51. It'll probably be America's 'Scout Car', the real life WC51 had an MG mount that could fit a BAR, M1919, or M2 HMG. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Lend-Lease unit spotted16 May 2014, 21:04 PM Damn, nice catch! Those "Conscripts" look like they might be American GI's. Obviously quality is an issue but that appears to be 5 man squads wearing green uniforms, rather than 6 men wearing tan. Plus the Commander he's using contains icons for: (German) Osttruppen (Soviet) Conscript Assault Unknown Ability Icon (Soviet) Partisan Infantry (German) Light Artillery Barrage The mix-matching of faction icons implies that whatever he's using is full of placeholders, implying it's in development, as the Americans are. The Germans are harder to tell, the picture on them is too awful and I cannot tell if they're OKW Infantry or regular old OH Infantry. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Skype?16 May 2014, 20:00 PM I use it and I like that you can just go and host a private call with somebody, so no worries about finding servers or random people constantly intruding your conversations. In: Lobby
Thread: Howitzer Balance16 May 2014, 19:50 PM Yeah but bombing run sucked anyway, and Axis didn't even have stationary howitzers. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Give me a reason why KV8 is OP?16 May 2014, 17:22 PM Hindsight is 20/20 though. You can't have 2 Pak's or 2 Panzers follow every Grenadier squad, you actually have to send troops out to capture territory sometimes. You also can't hear Tanks until they get close by, so 'listening' in the fog of war doesn't reveal anything. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Poor MG42 vs Rich MaxPin!16 May 2014, 16:34 PM Jump back to quoted post13 May 2014, 19:50 PMAerohank You can't have a maxim in not-set-up mode. The maxim (and DHSK) always automatically set up once they stop moving. This makes the bigger arc of the MG42 more than just a small advantage in a variety of situations. You can however reface it without packing up, something the MG 42 gunner cannot fathom for some strange reason. Edit: Whoops I was on an old page. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Give me a reason why KV8 is OP?16 May 2014, 16:21 PM It'll still survive for about ~15 seconds due to high health and armour. It killed those soldiers in about 4. It's possible the KV-8 will still escape. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Give me a reason why KV8 is OP?16 May 2014, 01:13 AM Jump back to quoted post15 May 2014, 23:47 PMAerohank Maybe it's because the KV-8 is not armed with a ROK flamethrower. Nah it's armed with a direct portal to Satan's Asshole after a binge meal of Chipotle and Taco Bell. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Idea for turreted tanks and assault guns16 May 2014, 01:01 AM Jump back to quoted post16 May 2014, 00:20 AMBootleg Usher With experience, the crew learns that it isn't always a good idea to fire the gun. Even when being swarmed by Panzers, do not fire. Unless the Captain comes up and personally orders you to fire. I wish the Captain could just say "You're an AT gun, only fire at vehicles."

Thread: retreat modifiers16 May 2014, 00:32 AM 4.286 for FHT (8.572 if both are firing on the same target) vs 15.000 for KV-8. In: COH2 Gameplay
