Every use of V1 comes with a use of V1 DUD - all the noise and none of the boom.
Look at it this way: It's a buff that actually does nothing to balance while improving the effectiveness of a doctrine choice that really rarely pays for itself.
Below this line is just theory crafting
Firestorm needs some sort of minibuff.. like reduce missile damage by 50% and increase flame radius by 100% and flame damge by 50% so its like american 105 barrage - GTFO or your ass is fried.

make it a v1 with a boom but 0 damage xD
and yes, the firestorm takes a bit too long to come down. maybe -0.5 or -1 seconds less delay

firestorm does a lot of damage at the time it comes down.
and the idea you proposed is the "Opening Barrage" for SE.

I've always wanted officers to be able to make fake smoke like commandoes unlock ability, it would be taking something unique away from that doctrine though.

I wish ami officer could drop smoke barrage since he's an assault officer, it would make a lot of sense. Drop smoke, pop that inspired assault thing and boom.

Both good suggestions. The Doctrines are undergoing a *MAJOR* overhaul atm, we're taking in a lot of your input and seeing whats working and not working. We're close to ending this phase, we should only let it run for a few more days at most. |

Shit I'm pretty sure you could offer the guy a cup of coffee and he'd try to kill you with the mug if you forgot sugar.
That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.
Why don't you collect up your love beads and potpourri and find something constructive to do.

i think it would be good if all offmaps change to some sort of annoying tactic, instead of just killing.
so make the nebel burn the land for a long time and make rockets do less dmg
give v1 also a fake use
henchel can dmg engines
sector arty can stay as it is since it already is annoying
earthshaker is changed to arty that pins enemys far around where the shells hit(and slow tanks too)
etc.

Why would you change one and not the other? These two are the most compareable in terms of when to use, and the effect i has on the enemy  If V1 gets a fake fire, then other artillery should too, I think this would go someway to compensate artillery based doctrines somewhat if/when they are changed. |

Some arty already gets fake uses. Besides, fake arty fits much better into Terror than any other company. |
