Chaffe is the most forgotten and useless unit for a long long time lmao. 400MP ,400 for that shit.

For Armor doc, the Chaffee is also more expensive than a Sherman after the "Cheaper Shermans" CP unlock.

The Chaffee's front armor can also be penetrated by Axis 20mm cannons...

I can also attest that in the live version (not beta), my Churchill Mk VII's were being penetrated often by Panzer Elite Fireflys. Most, but not all, of the Firefly shots penetrated the Churchill's front armor.

Also, please make the reinforce time lower, it takes ages for them to get new mens in. It takes away so much momentum after a push that the enemy already builded new units/emplacements to fill that hole again. I have also noticed the extremely long time that it takes to produce and reinforce stormt...

Hmmmm - is there interest in moveable unemplaced arty? Wald This could be feasible based on the realistic weight of the guns. The heavy AT guns in the game are already moveable by a group of men. PaK 40: 1500 kg M5 76mm AT Gun: 2200 kg 17 Pounder: 3000 kg 25 Pounder: 1600 kg 105mm leFH 18: 2000 kg ...

Wow, very interesting to see that the Sherman Jumbo is almost invulnerable to a Panzer IV from the front, and the Jumbo's armor is also reasonably effective against 88mm guns at long range.

I have seen this bug happen as well, in the same case when an American squad captures a PaK 36.

I noticed that when the M10 Wolverine tank destroyer is camouflaged, it will automatically fire at enemy vehicles that come into its range. In comparison, the M18 Hellcat will not shoot automatically when it sees enemy tanks. You have to manually order the Hellcat to fire. I have found this to be fr...

The patch that changed the AT gun pack-up time also affected the heavy AT guns that can fire HE rounds. Notably, the US 76mm AT gun and the British 17 pounder. When you activate the HE rounds ability for the US 76mm AT Gun, which is timed, the gun must "un-pack" itself like it is getting ready to mo...

If you play against Wehrmacht CPU AI that chooses Blitzkrieg doc, then the AI will spam production of the Panzer III. Because the AI gets resource bonuses, it almost always has enough munitions to equip all of its Panzer IIIs with the HEAT rounds. The AI also knows that HEAT rounds are deadly agains...

I see the Henschels as being quite inconsistent as well. Sometimes they kill multiple Mark VII Churchills and Shermans in a single run, and other times I wouldn't even notice that the Henschels had been called in unless you told me.

On this subject, can all of the Panther tank descriptions be changed so that they describe what the difference is between each variant? There is the Ausf. A, D2, G, Ace, etc... Similarly, can the StuG III and StuG IV descriptions be more descriptive? The current description says that the StuG III is...

The Panzer Elite MG42 team does not have the ability to retreat to a retreat point that is placed by the SS Hauptsturmfuhrer. They can only retreat to HQ. This bug occurred when playing panzer support doc.

Why does the flamethrower upgrade for the British Sappers cost 65 munition? Is the British flamethrower different from the US Engineers or German Pioneer flamethrower, which both cost 45 munition?

I support this.

It is interesting to see how the battlefield map changes from the beginning of a game to the end...

Recently, the US Ranger Captain and Wehrmacht Propaganda Volksturm Officer had their squad size increased to 3 people instead of just the officer alone by himself. I think it may have been overlooked that the increased squad size now prevents the officer from boarding a Jeep or Schwimmwagen as a tra...

Since E8s vs 76 Shermans are being discussed in the other forum, I am curious if Warhawks and Wald believe the E8 is "worth" the additional price. The E8 requires the HVSS Chassis unlock for 25 Fuel, and then each E8 also costs 7 more Fuel and 20 more MP compared to a regular Sherman 76(W). So in to...

I would like to add that the light vehicle prices become very difficult to justify for U.S. Armor doc after the "cheaper Shermans" CP ability is unlocked. Price of M4 Sherman: 350 MP and 30 Fuel Price of M15A1 Gun Halftrack: 375 MP and 30 Fuel (after tank depot upgraded production, becomes 345 MP an...

The Wehrmacht defensive doctrine's base defense MG42s (the ones that are on the top of the base buildings after the upgrade) appear to be bugged when shooting at infantry that are inside a halftrack or Kangaroo. The infantry inside the vehicle will die almost instantly; faster than they would die if...

The StuG IV late version has a remote-control MG42, which means that the gunner cannot be killed. The MG42 may be more inaccurate because of this though, but I have not seen the stats.

Can someone explain the difference between the regular Sherman M4A3 76mm and the M4A3E8 "Easy Eight" Sherman? After unlocking the "cheaper Shermans" upgrade in the commander points tree of armor doc, the difference in price between these two units is only 7 fuel and 20 manpower. What makes the Easy ...

I saw this and it appears to be legitimate. CoH2 is currently free on the Humble Bundle website. Below is a link. m As of me writing this post, it will only be free for another 42 hours, so share the link with all of your friends as soon as possible! Get them to download CoH2 while they can (if they...

I updated this to version 5.1.3.

Let me know if you see anything that needs to be changed or have suggestions.

In your opinion, is there ever any reason to produce the 76mm Shermans? Are the cheap Easy Eights with all of the sandbags and free veterancy still bad?

How much of the current British strategy and play style would change if they could build 6-pounder AT guns from the 2nd truck? The 6-pounder is almost the same as the American 57mm AT gun. Right now there's the difficult scenario for British in the phase between Boys and the 17 Pounder. Everyone els...
