The problem with this idea (original post, not all your stupid offtopic crap everybody ) is I could just as easily say "Americans need better halftracks" or "British need better light vehicles".

PE have a strength, and that is being an almost entirely mechanised force. Then, on top of that, they have a doctrine that lets them fight as effectively as any other faction while NOT being mechanised (theoretically) in scorched earth. It gives them the artillery and the focus on not being in clown cars that all the other factions have.

PE do not noeed additional artillery.

Not really a strength, just means all you need to do is bring out 2 ATGs and a ranger squad.

Then just focus on mopping up infantry.

does it really shoot infantry aswell? how much damage? splash etc?

If you wanted to blow shit up, change the doctrine, just because you want it doesn't mean the doctrine you are playing should get everything

Then it should be easy to find one you like!

Yeah, actually, it is.  He just has to blow things up differently. 

As RCA, I don't get a heavy tank.  Should I demand one?  I don't even get elite infantry.  Should I demand that?

Not all doctrines have access to all things.  Sometimes, you have to find another way.

I guess the difference is that everything in the PE army just about gets countered by the one unit that gets countered by arty (ATGs).

It's a pretty destructive cycle.

[wildsolus]

i dunno variant, i've heard a mortar ht is a pretty good counter to american support weapons.

Henschel is one of the best offmaps in the game, why are you whining?

[wildsolus]

great strategy i've seen lately with henschels...

drop butterfly bombs directly on enemy tank and at the same time put the henschel on it...the tank can't move because of the butterfly bombs falling down so it has to take almost 2 direct runs from the henschel and will probably die.


been used against me a number of times already

Because we all know that those clown cars could never possibly contain infantry that may or may not be able to deal with rangers and AT guns, clearly not.

A strength would denote that it gives more advantages than disadvantages.

It doesn't, so its not a strength.

You know, because everyone else can do the same thing.
