i believe Alohas holy "L2P" is needed here.

though i feel axis is so much more harder to play now. my playstyle just doesnt cut it anymore with p4s

[Jinker]

When is leophone going to blob fixes and updates for his maps

[Mysthalin]

Myth honestly first you say use mg and mortar to combat it then you say its not a good idea. make your mind up!!!!!

I said use the MG and mortar, as they're good at crowd control - but still be sensible and don't expect to beat a blob of more costly and more popcap-intensive units with just them. That'd be just silly - you have other units and more popcap for a reason. I guess I could have been a bit clearer on what I meant, sorry.

rifle nade too?

Yes, riflenade too. Actually, the only infantry weapon I can think of that has more than 35 range is the LMG42, at 40 range.

[BigDick]

why is there written so many bullshit and wrong informations nowadays in forums?

one writes 50mm puma kills 2 tommies a shot
the next one says 50mm puma is 25% more accurate against soldier armor than against infantry armor
then one tells us the lmg42 has 45 range

bullcrap

what are they thinking? are they even thinking?

[EliteGren]

As far as I know everything of that is correct. I've lost 2 Commando guys to 1 shell of a 50mm puma once, and their accuracy against soldier armor is .75 while it's .5 against infantry armor.

LMG42 indeed outranges other infantry weapons by 5.

[BigDick]

because some people are either lazy bastards or talking bullcrap on purpose




and to shoot 2 tommis each shot would mean 100% accuracy and a good splash since a puma does slightly more damage than a tommi squadmember has health

[Tymathee]

ffs, why do you only have an hmg there anyway? And why in the world did a rifle nade, which btw, gets .50 accuracy debuff firing at anything in negative cover (so if hmg was in crater with yellow cover then meh, its 125% buff to acc) i dont see it destroying an hmg and then why is that the only thing you're whining about? Tbh, the only time blobing bothers me is when it's 2-3 players doing it opposite me and my teammates don't know how to counter it, other wise, i bring out my ostwind, hmg mortar, nebel, stug, lmg's, grenades w/e and just say "shoo" and blob runs away.

l2p leo and quit whining about everything ffs, all you do is constantly complain about game-play yet wont switch your style to accomidate.

?
i see enemy blobs light vehicles so get get a bunch of 50mm pumas.

but they fail. thats the whole point. there is no other hard counter.
exept for volks mine maybe, but mines are just unreliable.

[Smokaz]

you dont use 50mms to counter blobs, its still mg's that do that, or goliaths and flamers

anyways i also found the 0.5 modifier for the puma 50mm in corsix against brits, which is strange. perhaps this has been changed recently?

[Smokaz]

I have checked with omg, they still have the 0.75 and it being something from vanilla. Can't access my regular coh "mod" right now for some reason, but can anyone check what it is in vcoh atm

[Mysthalin]

It was definitely at 0.75 last patch.

Perhaps accidental change?

[LeoPhone]

50mm puma gun

acc
0.75 long
1 medium short

0.5 acc while moving


where do you find the actual armour stats in crosix?
like received accuracy while moving or penetration?

[Mysthalin]

For moving accuracy - click on moving.

For specific modifiers versus specific armour types - target_table.

Penetration - penetration ;p.

[LeoPhone]

For moving accuracy - click on moving.

Penetration - penetration ;p.

ebps -> races -> axis -> vehicles -> sdkfz234_armoured_car.rgd -> moving_ext

i dont see received moving accuracy


target_table? i can only find type_target, type_target_action, etc etc. all useless

same with penetration. can you please be a bit more specific?

[Tymathee]

its different for each weapon vs the puma, so you'd actually have to go to a weapon you want to check and look at its accuracy vs the puma and penetration vs the puma.

and where do i find that? 

[Smokaz]

bottom of the list on the left, theres something called weapons, thats where you can check how a weapon performs against a target

[Mysthalin]

the EBPS only tells you the health, armour type, speed and used weapons of a unit.

If you want to check the weapons - look at the weapons tab, which is waaaay down in the bottom.
You'll figure it out eventually.

[LeoPhone]

thx, its all clear now. i can find everything.

[Kolaris]

Perhaps I'm missing something...Stags get the .50 cal, the AoE to kill two Infantry in a single shot (happened multiple times in this replay), and took down those ATHTs in 3 hits so I'm guessing they aren't slouches against Vehicles either.

What would be their "con"? Do they cost a lot?

Now I'm a complete newb at EiR so this isn't feigned sarcasm, I'd genuinely like to know what the intended mechanic is to keep a player from using 6-7 Stags like we saw here.
