Thread: Conscripts Advice10 Sep 2015, 16:48 PM @OP You can always upload replays of your games and post a link in the USSR strategies area, asking for help! It can be very very useful because people get to see exactly what you're doing instead of debating in theory. In: Red Army Strategies
Thread: Brit units and abilities10 Sep 2015, 16:42 PM The most important thing that the Ostheer player should remember when countering bofors is that 1) It's incredibly lethal; don't lose shit trying to take one out 2) Mortar HT works great. use it. 3) Mortar HT delays your teching (by quite a bit). Get one or two fuel caches up if you can spare the mp. 4) Muni cache would also be great; keep a patrol around your MHT to prevent flanking armor or any AT units from taking out the MHT. Teller mine would be great, too. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Early counters to UC flamer?10 Sep 2015, 07:08 AM Jump back to quoted post10 Sep 2015, 06:32 AMSgtBulldog However, by the time the UK player can have a UC flamer, I can have 1 mg and two grens. won't work and will surely cost you at least one unit. Wait, what? How fast are Brit players teching these days? It's 200 mp and 35 fuel. and then 90 muni plus the time. I would think you would have at least 3 grens and an MG with a second MG on the way. You can always lay an early teller mine. It's dicey but it can pull off. Roads, chokepoints are good spots for mines. if you're in team games you can have an OKW ally get an early raketenwerfer. As for actual counters, 222. I find it gets easily killed by an AEC or a QF 6 lbr but forcing your opponent to get AEC instead of bofors is good, and with proper micro you can dodge said AT gun. Or panzer tactician. Panzer tactician is a godsend. In: Ostheer Strategies
Thread: Pacific Front10 Sep 2015, 06:58 AM I sense that people want a Japanese faction for two reason: 1: They genuinely want a Japanese faction 2: They are sick of seeing German factions. I think Relic should have had timelines with their factions; That is, on launch, have two Soviet and two Ostheer factions, a 1941 or 42 faction and a 1944 faction. Or they could simply call it a "late war" and an "early war" timeline. If this were the case, a 1942/1 faction of Italians would be viable and able to compete at that level. It would be possible to have two British factions; early war and late war. The same could be for the Americans. They kind of have that for Ostheer v. OKW, the latter with all of Germany's prototype bullshit. tl;dr Relic makes factions year-based to add variety. In: Lobby

Thread: Stuka v Typhoon4 Sep 2015, 08:41 AM I thought this 1v1 played out in a rather fun way, both of us using our air support to great advantage. It was a challenging game and full of lots of RNG bullshit (like engine destroyed crits for a Stuka) from time to time, but all in all, it was a good, challenging game. Thanks, Roman. It was fun!

Thread: About the comeback of the mortar pit...4 Sep 2015, 06:29 AM Jump back to quoted post4 Sep 2015, 05:27 AMRobbie_Rotten Meh, dislodging OKW trucks dominates mid game. It didn't break anything. That being said, I would like another hammer anvil choice in T2 that unlocks bofors and mortar and adds another unit to the AEC. But it won't happen. OpieOP Another unit could be the recon infantry section that was removed from the Valentine call-in after the Alpha? A nice recon unit would be good for the flavor of choosing hammer, eh?

Thread: M5 Halftrack losing reinforce on upgrade4 Sep 2015, 06:20 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Sep 2015, 22:24 PMcomputerheat And with the change to flame weapons the days are numbered for the off-brand KV-8 burning down your mans as they retreat. Oh Computerheat, a blast for the past; I appreciate it! Edit: It's still kind of viable. Barton Cars are the best. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: OCF Update #4: Invites and Rules Announced2 Sep 2015, 23:25 PM Can Aimstrong elaborate on how he manages to be great at coh2 while also going to the gym regularly? I mean, how does he find time for that, also assuming that he has a job?! On a more serious note, I'm super pumped for this. Much excitement. It's a shame that my triple S/Teller mine price reduction won't be available for this... tellers@41 muni are heavenly Edit: and that's why bulletins aren't allowed In: News
