Does anyone else thing there health needs to go up a tad?
Right now they die way to fast to be effective in actually assualting, hence there name. There brilliant when flanking ATGs and support weps. They will do fine when flanking infantry when said infantry are firing at something else. But as soon as they fire at engineers, they drop like flies. Even in green cover they seem to die way to easily.

Im not talking about a massive health upage. im suggesting for a small increase so they can stand more punishment.

Does anyone else use them frequently? if so what are your thoughts?

I have used them extensivly the past few days, i have a armour coy FULL of them. 13 squads to be exact.

[pqumsieh]

Bars are far more cost effective atm i see no reason to use the shotguns when the bar preforms so well. They nerfed the assault squad a bit too much a while back so now they are a bit useless imo.

[Scotzmen]

aye i know about the nerf they gave the unit, i was one of the people that said they were pretty OP when they came out. They were pretty rape tbh. but now there meh.

[8thRifleRegiment]

they dont need a health increase at all. they are fragile assaulting SUPPORT units, support then with rifleman in an assault, or with tanks or anything and they do great, they do way to much damage to get alot of halth.

[Tymathee]

i think its also that htey cost too much. if they were around 40-60 mu they'd be worth the cost but 90 is waaaa too much

Do you guys really not remember when every Tank doctrine player had a blob of those guys raping everything in their way even light vehicles?
no?

[8thRifleRegiment]

stop complaining about the allied stuff, its fine as is, needs to be left the same, if made any cheaper and if buffed, it would just become another allied gimmick, it was clearly stated when they created them. its an ENGINEER sqaud with FOUR shotguns. they rape the fuck out of anything if theyere in green cover, they clear buildings faster then flamers, they kill halftracks like nothing, but you have to support them, theyre fine as is. stop crying yer gimmicks arent working fanboys

[rifle87654]

It isn't working against bikes.

[Spartan_Marine88]

yeah, 1 bike can kill an unlimited amount of assault engies, so why would you use a halftrack?

[8thRifleRegiment]

Lmao so thats one thing that needs to be fixed about em. thats all

[RikiRude]

i think they are only useful if you get that T2 that makes them harder to hit. ideally you would use them with bar rifles, have rifles suppress, then finish off with the engs. Plus if you have that HT T2 it cuts down the time you have to wait to use suppression. But all in all, I found them to be a waste of munitions.

I do, i was 1 of those people

So if there all so balanced why is nobody using them? they have fallen into the "unused catagory" Like roo carriers.

[Demon767]

because people found something new to spam Scotty

[Scotzmen]

Good point.

DAMMMMM YOUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!   

[Scotzmen]

lol, they were pure magic in combat back then. Even kch couldnt stand against 2 squads

[spinn72]

allies are op, wah wah, i'm gonna cry until axis recieve +50% dmg buffs on all units, cry cry cry, I can't beat allies.

That's all I hear on everything you post =\

Your assault engies were beating my KCH yesterday, they're still strong guys. I think they'd be epic in a HT if you go and use them to flank support weapon crews. Kind of like how people use HT + sniper combinations, but offensively.

dude, roo's were removed from the game if you didn't notice, so yeah.... they kinda fell into the "unused catagory".

[DarkSoldierX]

Can somone post the l/m/s DPS for these guys? Compare them to assault grens.
