Seriously... this needs a price increase... its just to spammable, and, in the large groups widely available to RSE players, there too good against inf. nothing can stand up to a properly supported group of these, and at vet 2+ they start penetrating skirted p4s! For instance, a game i just had, the player BlobsEqualsWin (no comments on the name, please) had 12 tommies, 11 of them had Boys At. That cost him 550 munis... thats not even enough for 10 lmgs, or 2 shcreck storms. I suggest a price increase to 75 - 80 possibly 90, make it equal with the other weapons in their arsonal.

Wow, this is seriously what ruins weapons is people spamming them..

Overfreeze, anything in large numbers is going to own period.. and no they don't penetrate skirted P4s at vet 2, I have a vet 3 Boys AT squad that doesn't do it, if it penetrated your skirted P4 it was an EXTREMELY lucky shot

Link to the replay. Only way I see beating this kind of blob is with good MG/arty work (except that pesky bail out button) or assault.

Result?

Increase all Weapon prices to so that every squad is not upgraded with something

Well let me say first of all Boys AT rifles do absolutely nothing VS vehicles because they phase through or just bounce 75% of the time. They can't penetrate tanks rear armor unless they get EXTREMELY lucky and third, if you think im defending the AT rifle because I spam them, I run 7 tommy squads and only 2 Boys AT rifles

You seem to not realize that there is 4 other rifles in the squad all doing damage to the enemy target and when the AT rifle shoots and manages to kill an enemy it looks like it did it all by itself..


Blobbing really has nothing to do with the AT rifle because anybody can blob with any weapon

PE vanish against several kinds of blob.  I think it says more about PE than it does about the boys at rifle.

I know that anything in large numbers works well... but they shouldn't be able to get these in such large numbers, otherwise i want to be able to have 11 squads with lmgs.. and dont give me that "theres 4 other ppl shooting, doing damage" crap, u can SEE the shots from the At rifles going into AND killing the men individually, at full health. you can literally watch squads melt in front of 4 - 5 of these things, vets not an issue to these things

And seriously, whats wrong with a price increase. It happened to shrecs to stop shreck blobs, happened to LMG's to stop LMG blobs, Happened to bars, mp40s it has happened to EVERY other weapon, the PIAT, the Thompsons name one weapon in this mod that hasnt had its price increased to stop them being spammed so much

You seem to forgot the Boys AT rifle is a T2 doctrinal unlock for a crappy doctrine also, I agree, make it 75 munitions and leave it alone for now

I've watched 2 games of traitorboy and wildsolus with TB spamming boys at rifle, and they didnt seem over the top of all, rather a big waste.

we're cool and overfreeze so i'll be honest. If you're getting raped by boys at rifles, then you need to figure out another strategy vs them. Nearly every weapon is "spammable" some people have bars on all their squads, some have g4's, some have zooks some have lmgs etc. Like me, all my rifles either have a bar or zook, should we lower the price on those? If he chooses to "waste" his munitions on boys at rifles on all his units, then so be it, thats what he wants to do. Now unless you see several people using this strategy and consistently winning that way, i find no problem with it.

I wonder, do Boys AT Rifles have a chance to kill a unit even at Green Health? Because if they can crit people at full health then that might be the problem.
