LOL sorry i wasn't aware
Anyway about the stuka what you said guys seems fair enough.
About the Panzerwerfer/Maultier, I do agree with Warhawks that at least it should be more spread (not sure about the damage values though). Because I believe in general the main role of rocket artillery historically was to suppress large formations of forces (mainly infantry) in a large zone (due to scattering) or softening multiples defense positions before the main assault.
thx,thx,thx,thx....thx again.

Regarding the 150 mm rockets, the damage ranges from 100-150 standard. +- depending on the one or other target table. To get a feeling: 105 arty has usually 335 with 50% more right where it hits and reducing the further away something is. Axis tanks have way better resistants to arty.
However, by veterancy damage increases.
The 210 nebler has basic 350 damage, doubling in the very center of the hit and some damage reduction to tanks (still almost instant kill shermans when hitting them directly). Does this help as orientation?:D
about the stuka i cant say that much. If i played i then used the patrole as well. Even if the bomb looks "a bit ugly" what i dont think so far, i do like the way how its preciously dropped on the target and destryoing hit in a huge bang. It looks very different to the allied one. The allied bombs have more "pure explosion" why the stuka bomb throws all that dirt up which looks more realistic.
The old Fw190 bomb raid was extremely deadly due to the many bombs that were dealing a lot of damage. But it didnt fit for the stuka for several reasons. Firstly the stuka couldnt carry this many bombs at once and the way they get dropped dont really fit in the way stukas were used.
Gameplay wise it was in my opinion quite OP since it was more a mix of CW cluster bomb when it comes to Aoe and infantry killing paired with the P-47 bomb raid that blows up tanks and stuff. And Luftwaffe doctrine doesnt need one such massive all killing high expensive strike i think.
Out of one super deadly strike that blasted just everything like an A-10 strike we now have a mix of specific raid abilities against certain threats and targets. You have access now to more raids that you can use exactly against a certain target. The Fw 190 type strike was just too... too strong as that it could really find a target worth it. I mean i had very rare occassions were i felt that this 250 ammo raid that could kill entire armies were worth using. I mean how often does it happen that you face multiple vehicles, emplacments and inf in such a line that you would call it. I hadnt many moments. Now you have more cheap stuff that can find absolutely worthy targets. And you are less often thinking "is this emplacment worth it". Coz you wont do anything more than exactly this.
