i think that if a bike is trying to block a tank it should be automatically crushed, like my priest just got blocked by a bike to get killed, that was super lame, please post your thoughts on this!

[brn4meplz]

Blocking is the Number 1 way to grief enemy tanks, and it improves your micro

[dravidian]

yea but its lame, in rl if you were to drive a jeep in front of a kt you would die, you wouldn't block it, and its another easy way to vet hunt......

[brn4meplz]

In real life I'd order Close Air Support from my completely allied Air dominance to completely trash any axis armor. It's only a game, You could skin CoH in anything apart from World War 2. get accustomed to the mechanics, and you'll enjoy blocking your enemies tanks eventually

[Smokaz]

Blocking is part of the game, and a very good one.

Blocking = Poor man's engine disabler

Long live blocking!

[dravidian]

yes but, it still doesn't change the fact, i could build a squad of bikes, and a squad of m10's just to vet hunt your units, but i don't because its a sign that your a vet hunter and enjoy being an asshole

If you use priests, calliopes or hummels people will try to kill them with various means.

[dravidian]

yes but, i am saying that kingtigers, pershings, shermans, any tank for that such, should not be blocked by bikes and jeeps, even the geshitwagon

[RikiRude]

its just like crushing infantry, its a part of CoH. It will always be there, you can't complain, you just have to get good at it yourself.

its pretty much a can't beat them join them kind of thing. im horrible at crushing infantry, i wish someone would make a guide on it, but i used to flip shit when it happened to me, especially the M-10 people bring M-10s out for AI instead of AT it's ridiculious.

and it goes with blocking. although i do think it would be cool to make it so tanks do damage to scouting vehicles when they run into them.

[EIRRMod]

I actually toyed with the idea of a tiny aura that destroyed vehicles / did damage.

But then, I realised it would make things so SO much worse.

[Baine]

We already had a thread like this once.

End of discussion was, try it out yourself

[SaintPauli]

Can you make the bike/jeep crushable if you turn its armor/critical into some kind of infantry armor?

[Unkn0wn]

Yea I can imagine its annoying, especially if you're not familiar with it happening (as it doesn't really happen in vCOH) but you'll end up getting used to it and with some proper micro you can 'outrun' most vehicle blocks. It's just one of those things .

[simpson02]

But what do the brits have to block other vehicles? commandos get jeep but thats only if your commandos, and if think bren gun carriers are easier to hit than bikes but thats probably tied with the fact that im crap at using them.

[Unkn0wn]

Brits dont need to block they can button .

[Akranadas]

MMG Brens can do the same job but better; just zip right up to a tank and button it.

[dravidian]

but like fausts and other infantry at they can be kited easily ive seen it happen countless times
