Any building should be destroyed right away, period. You can either deny its usage entirely or wait for a nice unit to enter the building and make it collapse then.

And some TDs are only useful thanks to these boosts.. specifically the range bonus. Your suggestion instead was to remove all bonuses (apart from accuracy & sight) & literally make them all sitting ducks... Long range tanks hitting from ambush are usually expensive & are especially designed exactly...

Glad u mentioned this, because.. did u know this is actually my job? I am studying video game design in Birmingham University, UK. And in my opinion, while i appreciate the brainstorming.. yet, most of the suggestions provided really hurt my eyes. I would actually think that it would be you who wou...

As I look at this topic, there are quite some inconsistencies between the reported "problems" and suggested solutions to them. For example, one of the reasons for changes to SE was something like "this doc has nothing to do with Scorched Earth tactics" and then came a list of changes to make the do...

What does "building remove mine" mean? :? I think its called something "implosion". Its like using a booby trap in a house, but its actually an explosive device that you activate manually when an enemie goes inside this house. This charge is supposed to destroy the units inside and perhaps the enti...

Waiting on some feedback from friends, so it's a bit unfinished but here is my revised tree so far: The first thing i maybe should have brought up that i am generally trying to keep unlocks from top to bottom and perhaps left to right to have an overall more organized unlock system rather than unlo...

in my opinion; it's extremely weird and doesn't fit.. also it's not about the size of the tank but rather the role. Pz4 is a medium tank, which - in no way, shape or form - should ever be converted into a TD. Otherwise we will start seeing Tigers, Shermans & Pershings (perhaps also Churchills) with...

I am so glad to see you both, CGarr and Mofeta in the forum again. I was afraid you have also already abandoned it entirely. And thx for the detailed feedback. And i already set the past days on the desk thinking deeply about SE doc. Bad thing is, in 1-2 weeks university work starts again so i will ...

That's a concern yes (rather I think more spotters would spot each other), but the binoculars as they are now, cover such a field, u can hardly place units in camo, whit out the spotter seeing it as you do it. So when u cant always see that field actively, imo you have more chance to place that mg ...

What i tried to propse is that recon units will vary in type (inf, vehicles, planes) and become an essential part of a battlegroup rather than indivdual soldiers that are send out without weapons on a sneaky mission anywhere only equiped with huge binos. So whenever you will launch an offensive, you...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaQPWtr4Ae4 Min11:46: Moments like these is what i mean when i say that some AoE stats are just insane, either in terms of damage (pak 38) even far outside the actual hit zone (like many Tank HEs), AoE range in general (medium Mortars) or insane AoE brackets (Leig 18,...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaQPWtr4Ae4 11:46: Moments like these i keep observing. I mean yes, it was only one men from a weapon crew and not a super tanky heavy elite solider with trillions of received damage reducing stuff etc, but still. I saw a full mortar squad in yellow cover dying to a l...

I was thinking about spotters and recons as well. Generally i would say that it would be nice to have a 2-3 men recon squad that moves together with your forces or can be stationed at the flanks. These guys would not crawl arround like ninjas and hide somewhere near the enemie base completely unarme...

If you mean tweaking the Flank Speed ability itself rather than having to outright entirely remove it from the game, then i don't mind.

tweaking the mobility base stats of affected vehicles to be in line with other tanks and then tweaking the flank speed ability itself, yes.

One thing i could think off is some sort of middle ground. Right now the most mobile units have also access to flank speed turning them into super mobile troll cars. If the Cromwell would have more or less some normal tank values, like perhaps 2.2 or 2.5 basic acceleration and normal speed of 5 inst...

A Command tank with comet would give you also 65 range without making yourself a big ass target. I see fireflies in stationary modes only when besieging enemie bases and when covered by lots of units and having vision in all directions. Leaving you still as big juicy target which is why i dont use ...

Not going to revise ur calculations, but the Cromwell without Flank Speed is hardly different from CW 75mm Sherman in RA doc as both would serve exactly the same role.. the Flank Speed always made the Cromwell very different from the Sherman. .... Having twice the acceleration speed and 50% more sp...

I love Rosmalen in particular. But so far only a handfull are willing to play them. They are "too big" and not "laney" enough. Small map camper 0.0.1 (wip) For i=0 to i=artyparty; { For I=0 to I=bored; { Join_lobby; If map !=High_valley then writeln ('Host_name High valley") Sleep_for(5); If map !=H...

Tell me, what will be the difference between Cromwell & CW 75 Sherman after removal of Flank Speed? & How are Comets going to fight Panthers & Tigers?? Lmao, really? The cromwell has a 100% better base acceleration than a sherman, has more than 50% higher top speed and is harder to hit by most guns...

"balanced". I think you really haven't played against someone really exploiting and abusing it. Rushing into tank guns an out before those get a chance to fite even

"needed"?
As said I play m10 and the 20 mm often enough without it and they are working

Why not just nerf accuracy on the move while the flank speed is active? This will solve the problem of 222 running away while killing half a squad, and TH will require some skill in timing your stopping for a shot. Other problem with 222 is a drive-by mortar call in, and I don't know if we have to ...

Apparently Hawks is. Not at all. Wolverine, M36 Jackson (Armor doc) & Achilles will be a super easy target to Shreck rush without Flank Speed.. and buffing basic acceleration, makes it permanently harder to catch these tanks with inf. Jacks used to be like that. Now it has 2.3 base acceleration whi...

M5 Stuart counters 222 armored car.. so is early Cromwell. Spending res on 2x 222 is very risky as PE if u lose them to AT or early tank. Oh come on. Some even use the HT version which is a lot more vulnerable. Pumas survive as well and so do scout cars. I mean ofc, if you run into an AT or tank yo...

Opinion: Ability is currently limited & available only to few particular units, none of the vehicles mentioned abose is over-performing with the ability.. in fact, most of them would be useless without. Not to mention that tweaking basic speed values in return of removing the ability could either l...

Btw. mass production doesn't have to be a resource saver primarily, it could just mostly affect building times. PS: I know there is "allied war machine" already That also. My personal opinion is that any mass-production doctrine unlock is super tricky to balance since it makes hard to balance units...
