Title: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: EliteGren on June 02, 2013, 02:44:24 pm They are a worthless unit it seems. Has anyone found a decent use for them? I'm not entirely sure why I'd choose this over an upgraded scoutcar
Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: skaffa on June 02, 2013, 02:47:35 pm worthless unit it seems Sold a few for 99 cent on market heya Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: TheIcelandicManiac on June 02, 2013, 02:48:51 pm Trow them in a HT, they become a mobile supression platform when mixed with the HT MG.
Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: brn4meplz on June 02, 2013, 02:53:12 pm They will be getting a pass over before becoming doctrinal. Use them in a HT and they work great at suppressing.
Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: TheIcelandicManiac on June 02, 2013, 03:00:59 pm Wher HMG supression
Long 0.0125 Mid 0.015 Short 0.015 mg34_support_lmg (Well that is if the support grens are using this gun) Long 0.008 Mid 0.018 Short 0.016 mg34_lmg (the normal Wher Gren LMG) Long 0.0015 Mid 0.003 Short 0.006 Use HT to get mid/short range Supress everything ??? profit Also, if you are wondering why you dont ever see it be of much use it because its short range is 0-10, mid is 10-20, long is 20-25 and then it goes to distant which is 25-40 but the distant supression is 0.006. Granted i tought distant wasnt used in EIR but i guess i was wrong. Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: nikomas on June 02, 2013, 03:50:24 pm Do I need to remind people of the troll supression IHT's I ran? Two of them in one car or two cars with one each was pretty much "Ohai, I see you're supressed thar!"
So much fun, it's a good support unit imho. Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: Smokaz on June 02, 2013, 03:53:59 pm If they are only supposed to work with a HT, why not make the unit a ht upgrade..
Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: TheIcelandicManiac on June 02, 2013, 03:58:30 pm Because for 6 pop you can have a unflankable supression platform that dosent die to atgs.
Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: brn4meplz on June 02, 2013, 04:42:18 pm They are not only supposed to work with the HT, they are supposed to work independently. Due to their current stats they will never pin troops and we'd like to look into making that a possibility as well as increasing their lethality.
Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: EliteGren on June 02, 2013, 04:47:10 pm If the IHT is the only way to make them work then what is Wehrmacht supposed to do with them lol? Very well thought out I see
I started this thread after using them on WM so I really get nothing from this Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: EliteGren on June 02, 2013, 04:57:30 pm ^Useless post? If they planned that change before last patch it would have been done already. Since it wasn't, there needs to be some kind of reason why they would be useful on WM. Someone decided to include them as a reward WM unit after all
Title: Re: [PE] Support Grenadiers Post by: Hicks58 on June 02, 2013, 05:14:22 pm All reward units were made cross-factional, including Support Grenadiers. Some cross-factional reward units are inherently more useful than others.
As for Support Grenadiers going mainline, it'll depend upon what changes we make to PE as a whole. It may or may not be entirely necessary. |
