The strafe looks similar to Assault Support strafe.
The Munitions is equivalent to 380 muni of normal resources.
I was also suprised that the ability didn't cost any manpower, but 250 munitons is a LOT for OKW. And its 3 planes coming in to strafe, two from the north, one from the south. It has a huge area of strafe for a pretty long duration. |
250 munitions for 3 stukas strafing at once with a squad of parachuting fallshirmjagers. Counter: AA m5 motor carriage, or any vehicle that is actually crewed. But the fallshirmjagers are pretty glitchy with their parachutes.
Fallshirmjagers otherwise cost 440 mp.
Oh yeah, and the crew weapon's health is under the squad's health, if that isnt there already. |
Combat Blitz: looks like a much shorter version of the old blitz gets revived for the OKW. |
Ok, so obersoldaten also have a bundled grenade, the caustic smoke grenade like the fallshirmjagers (vet ability), and they also seem to be able to booby-trap points. Their lmg34 doesnt seem that lackluster either.
So... the infrared-scoped stg44's do damage that ignore cover modifiers? So units in green cover get shot as if they were in no cover; someone explain to me how this weapon works.
Panzerfusiliers and fallshirmjagers both have panzerfausts, i believe, and they both harrass infantry very well.
The doctrinal flak defences have two men crews? Isnt that just snipable, or are they immune to snipes? |
Ive noticed... in the video with Brad's panther, the panther ACTUALLY squashed units, as in, they didnt dodge the panther like supermen. They just died... Panther heavy crush can now be useful without the need of old blitz? |
^^
They are the top infantry of the faction. They must have some sort of explosive ability (grenade?) or weapons upgrade
The Jackson's penetration is somewhere in Tiger/is-2 territory. That penetrating blow to the Panther's front did either 160 or 240 damage. (?)
It did huge amounts of damage, but obviously it cant deflect anything. You have to have some sort of blocker unit to defend it or it can get flanked by a panther and get in some real trouble. |
How much is the obersoladaten (both in MP and pop cap)? What are its abilities?
400 MP, i think they may booby trap points, unless that is doctrinal. |
Lets hope the puma stays somewhat good. It has crap for AI and not a lot of health, but it has good mobility and a combination of good range-pen-and damage. |
Now to wait and see how vet pz 4 dual call stacks up to t-34/85.
My one concern is usa have SP artillery..no other faction seems to.No hummel or wespe.But as a consolation from what i have seen of the stuka OKW version.....they can potentially do without.
Maybe Ostheer will get the Wespe and Soviets the su-122. You know, the Sherman Calliope hasnt made an entrance yet...

Earlier(is that nda breach yet?).
Sweet. I thought OKW armor availability would be worse. |
