Ok so if you werent using a doomfort and you were playing blitz or something its really annoying since the howi fires every 90 secs, and your not just gunna use 1 when your RCA thats stupid, your gunna have like 2 or 3. Plus you can pretty much have it way in the back by your spawn so no one is going to rush it with a tank or whatever to kill it, a V1 cant even kill it.

why does it need to be nerfed? its the hard counter to a defensive company. without 90 second arty and offmaps 88s with their arty pieces would probably just roll.

Its not even that good sure it fires every 90 seconds but it wont effectively kill the 88 itself it will decroy it but it will take a looooonnggg ass time with sandbags and all to actually kill one.

See but an american howi fires every 150 secs? or something like that and it can counter a flak. Its less annoying too. The brits howi is annoying because it fires 90 secs with creeping is annoying, creeping fucks up anything in its path, its almost like a fucking offmap coming down when you fire it. Plus the other thing i wanted to get changed back was the flak being able to die to an atg with 3 or 4 shots instead of 12, that would be a better.

It takes about what.. 8 seconds to kill a 25 pdr with a flamethrower halftrack - and I don't mean decrew it. Flat out kill.

3 Bikes will decrew it (bye bye creeping) in around the same time-scale as well.

Any other artillery pieces we know of that can be killed so quickly, cheaply and well.. flat out easily?

If the person is using two or more 25 pounders, you just need to be aggressive. The person is down 14+ pop and requires his teammates help to cover his investment. If they don't cover it, then the 25 pounders are easy prey. If you were to take a LV and flank towards his 25 pounders, you could simply drive around the emplacements if you were being chased since the emplacement itself will take the hits.

If you manage to decrew the emplacement, the creeping ability on the 25 pounder is lost.

Only on small maps can you have the 25 pounder at your spawn. Like the 88, there are maps that simply play to the strengths of the unit.

You also didn't mention the fact that the American howie gets -30 seconds on both vet 3 and vet 3. Getting vet on a howie isn't that hard.

Yer ive seen hummels use incendijavascript:void(0);ary barrage and its GG arty piece it will burn the shit out of it.  it also takes 1 pe players with a with infantry ht to kill it. its not hard its easily counter-able.


if you play against a blitz company  you shouldnt have blobs of infantry and storms are cloaked half of the time and with sprint you cant dodge or get out of the way quite well.
