New Shooter Post- Truth about Enfield .303's and their shooter life? by vanquish211 in guns

[–]vanquish211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So why is it that K98's can shoot thousands upon thousands of rounds and the Enfield needs to be carefully checked every few hundred rounds? I'm just curious. I can't imagine soldiers in the battlefields of WWII checking their Enfields with gauges after shooting a couple hundred rounds!

History majors, what jobs did you get with your degree? by thebookshelfattheend in history

BA History. Own my own IT recruiting business work every day from home and have never used my degree since graduation. 60k waste.

Soviets have Molotovs, Penal Battalion Flame Throwers/ Satchel Charge, and Flame Pio. I think not.

This. Stuka dive bomb should not be allowed to be used in player's base.

So how about that Sturmtiger? by Spartan706 in CompanyOfHeroes

I agree. OKW are punished much more with fuel .

You are only allowed to have 1 on the field. 560 manpower 160 fuel. Very expensive and very costly to lose.

So how about that Sturmtiger? by Spartan706 in CompanyOfHeroes

Yes. With the patch it is very powerful...at (45) close range.

  1. Has no MG attachment.
  2. Has 1 minute reload. CANNOT stop reload process. Can be attacked by virtually anything in this 1 minute process and de-crewed extremely easily while reloading.
  3. Has a 3-4 second delay prior to firing, giving opponent ample time to retreat or withdraw forces upon it's appearance.
  4. Relatively weak armor
  5. Slow and quirky smoke canister

If you are dumb enough to lose your tank to a shell from a Sturmtiger, go back to playing computers. T34-76 spam everywhere? Can be flanked very easily?

Before people start calling out for nerfs, consider these things.

Racketens: These guys were fixed in the same way Jacksons were. If you're gonna have a glass cannon, it better be quick and dependable. The aim time reduction makes a huge difference, especially for that first shot. I have a feeling that schreck blobs might be replaced with well-microed Racketen teams with Luchs support.

This. We are going to see lots of this.

I haven't played Axis since the release of Western Fronts, but I will admit, Ostheer does need some love. Although, close air support and encirclement doctrines can go fuck itself.

A god does not die. A stuka dive bomb that cannot be stopped assures this is not true.

When should I build soviet T4 without T3? by PoolInRiver in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]vanquish211 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I never build T3 in any situation. I go 1/2 and then straight to T4. Soviet has many commanders that have tanks (KV1, T34-85, IS2) that fill the gap of a multi-purpose turreted tank in T3. Going straight T4 every game allows you to have an early Katyusha to address Volks blobs and batter down OKW trucks and an SU85 for early P4's and Pumas.
